You better have the answer. Asking us without knowing is mean. (...and I might come back and give you a down vote)

PO3 John Wagner - I noticed that you down voted SGT (Join to see)'s post. I am curious as to why. I know this is an old thread, but I just ran across it. Is it because it is too open-ended?

I am sure there are threads with more down votes but this is the highest I have ever participated in. I am still wondering if the RP staff actually ate all those points....bahahahaha!

Wow. I read the post and this guy is off his rocker. I am not sure why he is more worried about the BX privileges so much. I am currently active and 8 months from retirement and shop at Walmart more than I do the BX unless it's a big purchase, just to save the tax. I am more worried about my medical benefits the most. Thanks for the share CSM (Join to see).

Also, CMSgt (Join to see)'s rock solid, humorous and pithy response (one her fortes!) gave her a zillion up votes and still provides her with the occasional up vote. CSM (Join to see) SGT (Join to see) TSgt Steve Waide

There is no difference in a retired person and one still in the uniform. We all either served or are still serving. The money in retirement is a lot less and for what one can find cheaper in the PX god bless you! I have not used a PX, Bx since I was a SPC at Ft Hood in 1977. I have to retract my statement in Iraq we used those nasty, dirt filled trailers.

I have only down voted once and that was right after I joined RallyPoint and didn't fully understand the implications of the down vote. I could have made my point a lot better through full comments but I thought the best way was to down vote. I apologized and moved on. Haven't done another one yet. I will reserve those for truly inappropriate and wrong posts versus peoples opinions.

A1c. I gave one and received a pretty harsh review for another member. But name calling and baiting another just because you disagree is a little to much for me. Come very close the other day because of name calling and talking about a certain part of the country. I think some like to start things and stir a pot of crap up.

I agree with both of you. The one time I did down vote someone I was called everything but my name. So I reserve those down votes for the ones that truly deserve it and then wait for the name calling to occur.

Do you have an answer for us? I think it is someone who doesn't believe in others opinions or their right to express themselves. I have given a few when the diatribe becomes aggressive and personal. Like the line was crossed between heated debated and verbal assault.

I have only given a couple ever and then only after the person gave me a down vote simply because they didn't agree with me. I don't give down votes just because someone disagrees with me. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. If I really don't like them I just quite reading their posts and that is extremely rare.

I bet SSG James J. Palmer IV aka "JP4" has given the most. I think he hits his 75 vote quota every day.

PFC Jim Wheeler - It is sad to remember how often people reply to links without reading more than the headline. We need to better police ourselves. RP admins can't do everything.

Interesting!!!!!! Does anyone really have the answer? I doubt if it's JP. I always found him to be very honest and honorable! Plus, who really cares about a Down Vote anyways? It's just someone's opinion and we all know what they say about opinions! Keep on trucking and say what you mean but please don't say anything mean about anyone! Just my two cents. SEMPER FI!
