Laurie should charge $1 per red thumb and reward 10c per green thumb.

That sounds fair.

I also liked red thumbs, if I got a lot of them I knew my work was done, now I know nothing.

Your honour, Eppo has clearly accussed the jury as being "donut punchers". This is both irrelevant to the hearing and also politically incorrect as it insinuates that we all abuse junk food.

Ok lets be serious for just one second.

AFAIK the lack of red thumbs was to force people to get involved in the discussion and post a reply.

So what was the number of posts per member both before and after this change. Theoretically this should have increased.

If anyone wants to provide me the data, I can do the statistical analysis.

Or that some people were setting up multiple usernames (not too hard) to red thumb particular users/subjects all of the time, in other words abuse it and you lose it.

Not sure it will increase posts given the flaming/banter that already goes on you got to have a thick skin here.

I agree with the thumb principal.. HOWEVER when you consider how many kooks retards and just downright dangerous wannabes, there are at any local...

The principal clearly gets abused

Interesting how the biggest kiteforum in the world - is a great source of knowledge and many articles on Seabreeze, are reposts from there...

And no thumbs - Toby uses the "Put up or Shut up" rule..

Nah ...

Laurie banned red-thumbing cause he got sick of dealing with all the whiney bedwetters.

Analyse that.

That may be the worst thing I have ever seen and no mention of free steak knives
great example of where a red thumb would be appropriate though
