negative ratings on our post is it revenge or just because we deserve it

No-one was being rude on that topic anywhere and we were sharing information. I saw you on other toics too and nothing deserved a negative rating

yes your right, i didnt see any negative on that too as far as i know we are just sharing thought and experience nor what we think is right. though by the end of the day i still manage to learn something and thats what matter so why should i give negative rank.

yes mine got dropped and i guess yours too i know what post was that or it might be to other post but im not sure, though i really dont mind it if they feel bad about my response atleast i gave my share to them but like what i said no one is perfect but its doesnt mean we are trying to hit them or trying to be rude.

Oh that would be a sad day when you turn to butt kissing, unless of course I am the recipient! haha I prefer it when you speak your mind.

Bend over smacksman!

maybe thats why, i also have strong words in my opinion sometimes though it doesnt mean i am trying to personally attack them but just to share my thought not just to the member itself but based on the topic they started.

Amen to that

your right in that, if we are not that open to communicate then i guess we need to open up our mind and think outside the box like "what if" and "why is that" to give further details rather thank think that person is trying to attack me as i dont even know them at all we are all here to speak and to earn and to share our idea and feelings perhaps so why took it too personal right? funny but true. i just want to say whats in my mind

There's a line that can be drawn between a discussion and an argument..the discussion would be an open sharing of thoughts and ideas with no recrimination involved,while an argument tends to be about changing the other person's opinion,which can get heated..

@January5th1960 yes your right its personal attack though i cant remember saying someone they are idiot though maybe i said to read my reponse carefully before they respond to make sure they got it right as their responce is not what im trying to say though maybe they think imtrying to be rude though i wasnt i just want them to realize their own mistakes to make sure everything is on the right page Besides i wouldnt mind if someone say that to me as sometimes i overlooked other post by just jumping to conclusion based on the title itself without reading the content and end up they are talking about different things, though sometimes someone corrected me in my response but i wouldnt mind as we have different mind and thought as maybe mine is different idea from what they know is right. @ShepherdSpy with your content about offended nobody, somehow we cant avoid but to offend someone if we disagree with their thoughts as i have my own and they have their own idea but it deoesnt mean im trying to offend them or hit them personally im just trying to share what i know is right according to my knowledge and if everyone disagree nor corrected it then i shouldnt feel bad about it atleast we are given a chance to say and share our different opinion and not just one.

yes thats true but we ar enot here to offend somone and i never felt that way ever since im here in fact i appreciated everyone who disagree nor corrected my thought as it means they ar people concern about what i think is right, thinking what i know might be right fr mebut not for others since we have different belief and values, of course we comes from different countries and sometimes the words we are using is somehow sounds ude to other people as thats the nly words i think is right but not to other people but its still not an excuse of giving negative ratings. we all just need t be open minded and accept that we are not that perfect. though we really cant avoid someone felt bad about it and took it personally.

yes but its unfair to rate us only because they feel so negative than checking the content of our post if its valuable or not, somehow we feel hit by other members rsponse but it doesn tmean they are trying to do that in purpose but somehow they do that to enlighten us and we took it too personal. as for me i give good rating to every response if the response is very reliable and valuable even though it hurt me nor hit me besides no one is perfect and its not bad to be corrected so why feelbad about it right? besides how do we know were doing it the right way and if someone tell us what to do then we feel bad about it thinking they think w are that stupid.

@ lilblondiemjd The rating system and how to use it is explained here: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq17.aspx

thanks mysdianait for sharing that link and i hope it will enlighten everyone when it comes to giving negative or postive ranking. though giving advise nor feedback nor comment which they disagree doesnt mean we are trying to be rude but we are only sharing whats on our mind nor share what we think is right for the benefit of others and not because we are hitting them personally. though if we disagree but if the content is good enough for us and otherst o be educated then why not accept it and give positive response instead of negative. Though i seldom give negative response i only give to those whose very obvious pretend they didnt know anything like for example a copy cat post which in fact theres already topic started in the same interest just few minutes ago before they start new one for their own if they can just respond to the first topic. that is obviously a negative rank for me.
