*I Got Nothing For You: Back Off*

[Yurt]

oh come on, he is talking about oca

[FSUK]

Can someone please tell me why my repuatation has gone negative and red. This is a debate forum, however, it seems obvious that any remark regarding the Israeli govt- seems to get a totally negative rating. I have NEVER said anything about the Israeli people or the their faith.

I simply have a go and the govt's policies and methods. People have misquoted me and misunderstood me- they think im some sort of jew hater. I am not a jew hater at all.

Alot of these threads have to do with terror etc etc..and the arab/israeli aspect seems like a prominent issue on the forum. Therefore , i simply respond with my personal opinions. Many people here are quite obvious with their muslim bashing etc etc.

Therefore, i feel it is unfair and quite ludicrous that because many of you are pro-israel ( which is fine, and i respect that)- you all feel that you can give me negative reputation points.

Lets have some common sense demonstrated and some civility here.

Don't take the rep counts too awfully seriously. They are 100% controlled by the members you are posting with and don't paint a true picture of someone's posting ability or reputation around here. I think it tends to even itself out a bit after a member has been around for awhile, but in the beginning, just a few off handed comments can land you in the red zone.

I, and many others, do not believe in giving negative rep for a differing opinion. Stick with it, and you may see positive rep to balance it out.

thanks guys.

Well, he's been here for over a month or so now, and apparently has taken the same tone and same stance in just a couple of threads. Not surprising that he gets a little heat for that.

Diversification saves the rep!

Sorry bout that

1. You're off topic a tad FSUK, but I guess thats okay.
2. Most people on this site are against Islam.
3. Islam is the problem in the World today.
4. So if you support Islam, you will get dinged and often.
5. Its not all that hard to figure out.
6. Now if you go to an Islamic site, expect to get dinged if you support *Free Peoples*.
7. So there you have it, I hope this helps.
