This thread is probably going to be locked, it has no moral point other than to offend people, and give a unnecessary request.

I rated you wrench, so you can club yourself over the head.
[QUOTE=Doctor-Mask;16506929]That is not what I am saying. Facepunch has turned into a group of assholes is what I am saying, I know I am probably going to get a thousand "clocks" for saying that but usually communities are suppose to get together, not rip at eachother. Like what you are doing.[/QUOTE]
Well I must agree about the fact that communities are not meant to argue with each other but I do not find my self ripping at anyone...
People already take that rating as a gay rating.
[QUOTE=joshdasmif;16507000]I am not sure but I think you are about to be banned, one thing I don't understand is why they call themselves the "n" word but wiggers can't...[/QUOTE]
Nah the rules have changed in the way that if you do not say it as an insult, it's ok. I'm not racist, I was just using it as an example to parallel why the OP is proposing a stupid concept.
Also no, I'm not saying that gay is a derogatory term in the way the nigger would be for a black person... but these days many people use gay as a derogatory term for happenings, people and objects that they don't like... so in this instance, yes, I would consider it offensive (maybe not to the extent that nigger is though, but fairly close).

That is just how facepunch goes, I guess.
I made a greasemonkey script to rename optimistic to gaybow

Well you blew me away there, I agree...

This is why we need the thankyou rating back.

We do need a wtf rating though.

Give me hearts, so I have food for the night.
Anyways, we all agree that this is a bad idea, correct?

I think that's the first time I've ever changed someone's mind on the Internet. Thank you for seeing my side.
Mind = Blown

There's a reading rainbow for you.
Oh, what a good idea! Does this mean we can make a bunch of gay posts in the general forums to get gay ratings now?

I think the use of "optimistic" as a replacement for a "gay" rating is a prime example of a random trend amongst Facepunch users using the ratings system for something it was not designed for in the first place, but is now commonplace to all but the newest users. See also; rating informative for reposts in the LMAO pics thread, and over-excited rating spams whenever Hezzy or Garry post a few words in any thread.
