I came here as I ussually do-for a dose of reality based news.

I did not come here to play the latest fad of hide the good threads somewhere-I'm sure you'll find them.

Frankly-speaking for myself & the grumpy old man segment who DO use computors...I don't need another freaking set of parameters or rules...
Not at times like this.I need news.

You could have chosen a time AFTER the friggin election. But the whole shebang thing NOW??
Why?-Urgent bailout needed or just bored?.

2. it's not all that complicated, is it? I figured it out pretty quick
I'm just sayin'...all you have to do is select a choice from the popup menu. That's not all that bad, is it?

5. I thought we had a good system: Just look at the number reads versus the recommends.

The way I usually drive DU it feels like a big honkin' speed bump in the road.

22. Damn kids and their new feature fetishes!!!
GET OFF MY LAWN!!!

Actually Boxerfan, as an old phartess myself, this new-fangled thingie might be useful in cutting to the chase. Took me a few minutes and a WTH post, but upon preliminary review, I think Elad has done it again.

23. I preferred hunting through threads on my own... not a fan of rating systems.
But whatever!

24. Initial response was wtf
Now after perusing a few threads, I like the new rating system. People just have an adverse reaction to anything new. We'll all get use to it.

26. The choice of five options confuses and enrages me.
You shoulda seen what I did to the waiter at Applebees.
