Cheers and Boos

[Spinking]

Just wondering what is the go with these.  I understand the concept, but find the way people use it hard to understand.  I've had a stack of boos in the past few days which probably means that my comments haven't been well received, but I generally try to think carefully through what I'm writing, and offer opinions only where they are asked for.

TBH I find it a bit demotivating and have not got involved as much as I might have otherwise.  To balance that though, I do notice that many of the regular contributors have more boos than cheers...

Any thoughts?

Yeah I am the king haha.

But yeah I would prefer a rep system.

Its got nothing to do with the quality of your posting, people use the system as a joke so take nothing from it. if anything it could be a sign that you are taking people in the English that people wanted. I can remember i took someone in the euro draft and than got 10 straight boos.

Im not sure how and why it works, but if it makes you feel any better i'm gonna click on your cheer button  ;)

Got it now.  Makes sense seeing my English team is clearly strongest at this stage (expect more boos...)

Just wanted to make sure it wasn't an indication that I should shut up!

Yea do not read too much into it at all as I don't.  Keep doing what you are doing and continue to believe in yourself and what you are saying.  It is human nature to boo more than cheer.  Until recently my boos were greater than cheers.
Keep posting mate because that is really what the forum is about a place where we can share views and opinions. Not everyone will agree with you and a word of advice though do not be drawn into slanging tit for tat comments as some do from time to time.
BTW I have enjoyed reading some of your posts and comments so keep them coming.

[Ziplock]

you basically have to be a ridiculously high quality poster to get even close to a 1:1 cheer:boo ratio lol.

I dunno why mines still so close, I haven't said anything helpful in months :P
