Spanners!

What does the Spanner rating mean to you?

  1. This post was useful.

  2. The person who posted is a "tool".

  3. I'm in need of adjustment.

  4. WTF do we have a poll about this?

  5. None of the above and I will bore you with my suggestion!

Results are only viewable after voting.

  1. Time for a poll.

    The little spanner rating, for posts. The caption reads, "Useful", but how do you use it? And what do you think when you receive one?

    Let's keep it polite here. For once. Just as an experiment.

  2. I always use the Useful rating for useful posts, never as an insult. There are limits, you know!

  4. Well you have just opened my eyes, never saw it as a spanner, I thought it was a carrot and always wondered why someone would use a carrot symbol for useful.
    You live and learn and I must eat more carrots and open my eyes.

  11. Why the down vote Needy Nipple?

    I quote your own very fine :Vomit: words:

    "If people want to assume general criticisms I make ("for the hard of thinking", for example) refer to them and, therefore, take umbrage, that is a matter for them."

  12. sorry Loz since this thread emerged I feel the need to explain - I voted your initial post with a 'Thanks' - and that is what I meant... I didn't mean 'what d'ya want - a f*ckin' medal??' :smile: (this was a genuine 'i'm smiling' smiley as well : ))

  19. to be honest, with my eyesight, i thought the 'spanner' symbol, was in fact a limp male appendage....
