I am going to give a fair warning to eveyone here. I will not give a - rating cause I don't agree with your opinion.
I will give a - (negative) rating if your post is incorrect when you are passing it off as fact.
One thing that will definitely get you a - is if I post a discussion and you give me a stupid answer. I am not going to debate the issue but if your answer doesn't apply to what I am talking about you will get a -.
Also if I catch you cheating I will report it. I did it once already when I caught someone copying someone's answer in the SAME discussion no less!!
I am sure this is going to make people mad but now everyone has been given fair warning!!
Anyone else feel like I do and treat replies how I am?

I see no reason this should make anyone upset as you are simply following the guidelines of mylot. I rate in the same manner. I don't want people posting garbage when I start a discussion. When I respond to a discussion I try to put thought and effort into making the best reply I can and I expect others to have the same consideration when replying to mine. I do believe this is the whole point of the rating system.

Yes it is the way it is supposed to be but still you get inane answers. Somebody really ticked me off before. Their response was so out of line! It was not one of those things that have opinions so to speak so I didn't give a - for not agreeing with the posters opinion.

Sounds to me like my rating system. There have been a few times when I just could not bring myself to give a + to a response because it was so very much against my personal beliefs but I did not give them a - I just didn't rate them.
I can't believe someone would be so stupid as to copy a response from the same discussion. I honestly do read all responses but not sure I would spot a copy as so many responses are so much the same.

Yeah I won't give a - just cause they don't agree with me.
I read as much as I can (within my discussions I read every reply) I caught the cheater cause I swear they copied and pasted!! Don't know how cause they were no where near 500 posts but it was verbatim!
