You just pm'ed me and told me not to start a thread about  reputation because Matthew hss "pets?
Revealing information from pms is considered dishonourable. This is the sort of thing that has lead to the score you have.  It is not because you are a flat earther.  You deserve your repuation.

Oh, look!
It seems I am eligible to downvote you again.
It would be nice if my vote merely disagreed with what you said, rather than damaged your REPUTATION.
If any people care about my reputation score (and that is a big if) they probably also realize that the vast majority of my downvotes come from disgruntled flat-earthers.  Why would it matter to me?

Likewise.
It was interesting to hear your condescending know it all reputation precedes you for years across other boards.
Why is Maria Regina claiming Matthew has "pets" then shows up here to bash me? That's dishonorable.Is she his pet? Are you his pet?
My suggestion was a good one, even if you and she don't like it.

My “want to be liked” comment was more related to social media and many people’s incessant need for approval.  While I do think the “thumbs up/down” button is related to this, it’s not the same since you can’t see who voted for/against you.  And many times a post gets no feedback, unlike the goal of social media which is feedback on EVERYTHING.  It’s somewhat similar but not really.

Personally, it’s nice to see some posts get upvoted if I spent some time with research and writing it.  Otherwise I don’t care.
