I had a pretty good rating untill I started oppossing the war in Iraq, calling Bush a moron, and defending Israel.
I guess some people are childish enough to rate people based in non-SE4 issues.
Anyway, I removed the option to rate me not just because it sunk to the bottom, but because I started feeling like that rating is a pressure to be liked by the group, and I'm not like that. I'm what I am and I'm as politically incorrect or correct as I believe is right, and the Last thing I want is to be judged.

I dunno about your comments on "tha war" (I gon't bother reading those threads) but I can remember your name associated with some remarks that I would label "uncalled for": remarks about a person's chosen nickname here and, I think, even his choice of Einstein as an avatar. I'd call that a personal attack for no apparent reason that I could discern.

So, just maybe it wasn't your views on "tha war". I didn't bother to go make any adjustment to your rating, but the comments you made in that thread were remembered. It was back when you had some wizard (or something) as your avatar.
