No ... it will be fun to someone who wants to expand their votes/favourites machine. Please stop this malarky NOW!

Login, I think it's really fun. Everyone has ideas and no one should be down-putted.

if it helps at all, i never activated the account so nobody can vote from that username.

Pollyesther, you shouldn't have to be saying "If it helps at all...". Everyone has ideas, and while I'm here, none of them are down-putted.

Plus, it's not "malarky". Login would see that if she would just listen to other people's ideas without getting angry. Login, if you don't like it, ignore it. It will make pollyesther, everyone else, and I feel a lot better. Cyber-bullying.

hiya pollyesther..

We've already got some userids like this.. and they were always a great idea, but people start using them to leave nasty comments -

IAmAnonymous was created with that in mind, but some people just used it the wrong way. I think it would be really excellent if we could get Rachel to create an anonymous userid that anyone could use to create a picture .. but that COULDN'T be used to leave comments.

Maybe we could ask her ? ..

Lets not let the abuse from a VERY FEW interfere with having FUN! I created I Am Anonymous for people to draw under anonymity. There were people that asked for this. It has since been abused. I did write rachel for a way to change the password, but haven't heard back. Now you must activate an account to be able to vote, so no one could use this to vote against anyone. I guess someone could use it for negative comments, but maybe if we just ignore & report bad behavior, there will be less. Thanks for your explanation polly. If all know why something is done it helps to get along!

Good idea marg, no vote or comment!

Yes, I'll ask....

well, lynnspotter.. I always thought it was a really great idea, and typical of you for thinking of it !

Wonder if Rachel would actually answer a request in the ThinkDraw forum ??

I should try again. I think rachel has been gone awhile & has just now started catching up on things!

She has before. elpaul forgot his/her password and made a forum and Rachel helped.

Login , i hope you know i consider you a friend and i adore your artwork and the last thing i would want is to upset you.

16. 7 Nov 2009 06:25

maddyjean08

Yes, we'll go with that....

17. 7 Nov 2009 06:25

or anyone else for that matter. if this causes problems maybe Rachel could just ban the name, im sorry everyone

pollyesther: I actually rather like your idea (guess the name), but I also totally agree with Marg. Abuse is too rampant on this site. If the account could only be used to draw piks and not vote or comment for this game it would work. Whatever you all decide, I'm in!

pollyesther, I apologise for my curt remark ... it was inexcusable. I'm not making excuses for my rudeness when I tell you that I was angry at the time ... not with you but with regard to two discoveries that I made yesterday. I don't want to start another TD war but there is duplicity going on here. I believe it is NOT widespread, but it's there and people are being squeezed out of Top5 by it. With more than my fair share of Top5s in Oct & Nov, I don't have an axe to grind. What I can say in all honesty is that I don't have any way of inflating my own votes/favourites, which is what is going on.

I've calmed down and am no longer breathing fire. Your idea is a creditable one and I wish it success. I'm sorry for offending you and others. Have fun.

oh no problem Login, it was a misunderstanding... you haven't offended me, it's not like you knew who it was and with all the trouble lately, i don't blame you for being frustrated. I just wasn't thinking very clearly this morning and if i was i would have realized it would look that way.

it's a shame that some people would do that, but they are probably kids either that or they have way too much time on their hands...
