    I'm new here too, but I like the flow of the forum. There seems to be a lot of knowledgeable members here

    One thing that I don't understand is the flag for this post? What gives?

    There are a few flaggots who automatically flag any post that remotely infringes on their world view, one wherein they are persecuted, everything is someone else’s fault, and the forum is full of commie pinkos

    ever since they made those flags anonymous, the weak-minded have had a field day slamming the buttons

    ignore them. They’re not significant and do not contribute to the forum in any way, on any level. 

    Live look at a typical flaggot:

    Sometimes I notice flaggots targeting some members regardless (or is that irregardless  ;) ) of what they post.
    This here is the truth.  Some of us could say we will give $1M USD to every member who says hi, and the post would guarantee 2 flags.  Not sure if it is 1 person with 2 accounts or 2 people, but 2 flags will pop up.

    To be fully transparent, I hit "Off-Topic" on every post @Botch makes, so I cannot really complain about my own flags.

    Idiots ... don't pay attention to it. They are just trolling, or whacked out on LSD.

    I stopped paying attention to the flags sometime shortly after being banned from the forum.

    Just ignore the flaggots, life's too short.

    No they aren't.  I flagged @Eoin because I thought everyone needed to hear my view, value my opinion and therefore agree with the accuracy of my contention.

    Two problems with this.

    1. There is no seem about it.  They do.
    2.  They do not just received "A" flag.  Flagidiots travel in pairs.

    It is like Antifa and BLM acting like Trump supporters and storming the Capital!  Sneak attack to rile up the masses.  Are you secretly a Shaman on weekends?

    I clicked the disagree button on that comment.  I wanted to own it, since I think disagreeing is an anonymous act.

    There's nothing secret about @SGH's shamanic activities.

    Maybe the flaggot(s) is(are) just a leftie accidentally hitting the flag button while scrolling on the page 🤷‍♂️

    There’s a reason they put the button on the left. 

    Think about it.
