    Because 99.9999999 percent of MFP can give two craps less about my progress. So I just keep it on my profile.

    because my weight is up and down like a rollercoaster and i prefer to keep track of it on my own. But I can see why it would be useful for a lot of people

    Because it doesn't matter much to others what my ticker says.

    Because 99.9999999 percent of MFP probably don't know how to....maybe?

    Oh, my bad. You act coy, but you're dying to look at my ticker.

    I think it clogs up the threads visually. I'm glad people don't do it.

    ^^ what Cliffy said . . . or they're just here to whine about how mean everyone else is and really don't intend to lose any weight so why keep track anyway, amIright?

    I use one because I like having a visual reminder of how far I have to go, as well as how far I've come so far. Numbers don't mean very much to me if they're just by themselves.

    However, not everybody is like that, or needs it in any such fashion. Or perhaps they don't even know where they'd go about getting one, since it's something you effectively have to 'turn on' in your settings.
    Either way.

    That's not the first time my ticker has made you gag.

    I win.

    I'm incredibly offended that you would question the thought process of users and the posting of their tickers. Where the hell did that report button go??:sick:

    The question is...who has been here long enough to remember the signatures. Especially the really long ones? And the collective meltdown when they were removed!

    i dont weigh myself.. i go purely off measurements, the way my clothes fit, and progress pics. i cant even remember the last time i weighed myself.. so the ticker is pointless for me.

    I like seeing the ticker personally...it is a motivator to me...but I guess if I looked like some of these guys on here I wouldnt need it either...I can only HOPE to be "ripped" like that one day...

    oooiknow-1.gif I do. I remember how some of the signatures were so big that sometimes only 3 or 4 replies to a topic were on each page. You used to spend 30 minutes or more just scrolling past pictures and walls of text in the signatures.
