Revisiting an old topic - https://gametz.com/S...
Does the report below equate to those that neg the most? If so, wow... One person leads the charge by leaps and bounds. Really only a handful of people that own all of the negs. Why so angry? Regardless, shows that overall population here are positive, like minded folks.

Also, love bills advice! I keep debating bailing on all of them but damnit, they do serve good purposes when utilized properly. Just so tired of the stupidity and negativity out there.
"p.s. Also, quit Facebook, Twitter and all social media. Turn off your phone. Go for a walk outside. Eat more vegetables. etc."
Side note - saw whitefire in that thread, been a bit since he's been around ... anyone know what happened to him? Damn, just looked at his last post ... just over a year ago!

I honestly had forgotten about it, but since Scott mentioned it, I changed it to report to me when things happen. Sure enough, your negs caused it to go into action. The report looked like this: ...It decided that you had both focused-negged 3 people (bill, benstylus, and MrBean) then also that you negged most/all posts in this "NegTZ" topic. Ultimately, it deleted all of your negs of bill, benstylus, and MrBean and all your negs in this topic. ...perhaps, a little heavy-handed, but righteous enough imho. The system works?!
This is bullcrap! Not shadow negging! Put a system in for shadow plussing!

I'll think about it. But first, we need to talk about why you hate benstylus so much.

Same! I love that Bill has such an awesome script for neg catching -- and I indeed chuckled audibly at the final "Negged" there.

Is there a way to hard-code a profile so one wouldn’t be able to see the scoring system at all ever? I have no desire to ever see it again. I don’t even want the option in Subscriber options as a choice.

The option on the Subscriber options page could be hard-coded out for someone, sure.
There are probably numerous other cases where it may appear or be mentioned and perhaps could be hard-coded out.
Most importantly, other members of the site may bring the scoring system up (this topic for example) and there's little that can be done about to prevent that.

Just to throw it out there, plus-only scoring like I have is pretty nice. You only see positive scores and you can only up-vote. It really helped me not worry/think as much about the scoring system. To me, I like it better than getting rid of it entirely since it just shows positive things.

The negativity of it gets to me sometimes, and I know I have a tendency to feed into negativity. I don’t want to see scoring, and I don’t want the option to turn it on and off. If it would disappear altogether that’d be great, but I know I’m only 1 person so if the scoring could disappear altogether for me that’d be awesome.

Here benstylus demonstrates the impossibility of making the score system disappear altogether.

Same. That's why I went plus-only.
For me, it actually makes things better than just not being there. Because it is nice to see some upvoted posts now and then and to be able to upvote them. No negativity.
I'm not saying you have to, of course, turning it off is certainly fine too. I'm just saying that, for me, plus-only is actually better for my attitude and positivity than no-scoring-at-all.

@bill would you mind making my account plus-only? I'd like to try that out.

So, in plus-only mode, is the score you see just the total of plusses? Or do negs still factor in to the overall score, but you just can't see the breakdown of how many plusses and how many negs, and can't apply negs yourself?

I just negged you to test. Do you see 0 or -1?
