To what end will we drive ourselves to get to the top? Some of us, it seems, will take any road it takes to get there, and then be super-defensive if anyone says the least thing unrelated to them about it. I have never begged for ratings, added my name to some "fan train" or similar bulletin, nor have I "demanded" than someone be my fan/friend to see anything (in point of fact i am a fan of more ppl than are fans of me for one thing). Nor do I ever condemn those that do. Apparently, though, some people don't like to have these things pointed out to them, these being the same people that feel the need to beg/barter/bribe people to be their friends. I for one am proud to say that everyone on MY friends list didn't have to BUY their way their, they are there because they want to be, and they are free to leave it just the same, if they want to. I appreciate all the ratings that people give me, and despite the misguided opinions of some, i return them in kind if i haven't given them first already, and if they chose to not like what i say and downrate me now, so be it. ratings are worthless, just like fighting on the internet.
Fighting on the internet is like racing in the Special Olympics, even if you win you're still retarded. well, I leave being retarded to others, have at it if you like. The rest of us will cheer from the stands :)
