Well, because the words "those who are accustomed to telling the truth would be unlikely to have reason to give this thread a Thumbs Down and that those who do so may have told lies here before today" appear in your OP and then you have quite deliberately [1] copy pasted exactly those words again a further FIVE times in the spa ...[text shortened]... aning of this entire thread ~ but when you are called out on it, you refer to it as a "minor thing".
"Purpose of this thread is to take a poll to determine the desirability of an RHP Site Ideas thread which would recommend that the present Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down Features be expanded to include a Pinocchio Feature as well. Votes will be counted as follows: One for each Yea Post and for each Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down [on the premise that those who are accustomed to telling the truth would be unlikely to have reason to give this thread a Thumbs Down and that those who do so may have told lies here before today]. Nay Posts will count as minus one. Twenty One (the age of accountability in some countries) Net Plus Votes will be needed. Our Polling Station will close at midnight December 31, 2015. Thanks for your cooperation." (OP)

Why would you assume that people who think your "Pinocchio Feature" is a bad idea may be liars and why would you assume that people who think your "Pinocchio Feature" is a good idea are "accustomed to telling the truth"?

Because His Majesty Windbag Extraordinaire sees the world
in black and white. In his fragile mind, you are either with him or
against him. You know, like Pol Pot, Manuel Noriega, Idi Amin,
and that ilk.

He likes to be known as Grampy
A Boston Lard who suffers writers crampy
So when he thinks in his head
This is surely worth a thread
Its off to cut and paste with great haste.

Why do you keep impersonating other people Grampy Bobby?
That's against the ToS you know (section 6.- look it up it, probably in your paste buffer).

Or perhaps you're being lax with your security and allowing other people to use your account - again a breach of the ToS.

If it is indeed you posting these things then maybe you'd be better off getting out of the fouled-diaper emotional hiding place of passive-aggressive posting in the guise of anonymous and dubious alter-egos and just say what you think (instead of the constant copy-paste "insights" you give to the forums).

Just a thought.

An exceptionally harsh indictment of a whimsical foray for the sake of adding an ounce of levity to the tons of sadness typed on the internet each day.

That's all, orangutan.....

And yet here you are, having started a whole thread deliberately to cast those who don't like your proposed idea as liars, and people who like your idea as people who "tell the truth".

Grampy Bobby, you can't have it both ways: your constant umpteen-thread-starting emotional browbeating and condemnation of the personalities of fellow members of this community with your dreary broad passive aggressive brush - on one hand - AND then pass it off as a "whimsical foray" on the other.
