This isn't anything to do with the worth or validity of the rec/unrec feature here (I like it), but just a question to see if I am like or unlike most here in their clicking habits.
Me? I'll rec a post that I agree with or like and pretty much ignore the rest.n To date, I only recall unreccing one post.

| 1. I believe I have used rec once and unrec once. |
|
It is not that important to me.

| 2. Have accidently clicked the Unrec button twice because it is in |
|
the location where the Rec button USE TO BE. That pissed me off, too. (I admit to being a creature of habit:) )
Now I find I don't do much recommending anymore for fear of another "accident".
I do not see a need for the Unrec selection. It's a toy for the immature in too many cases.

it's just part of being generally positive. If a thread is good, then promote it. If I don't like a thread, I'll just ignore it (or leave a snarky comment...my style). The whole "if you can't say something nice..." aspect maybe.
And I simply cannot believe you responded to me without a "my dear flvegan" Peggy.

| 9. So theyre in one place |

for convenient merriment. Course I'm also for a forum for all locked threads, and all tombstoned posters in a nice tidy daily list.

| 7. I use both many times a day. |
|
Example: Suppose the OP is titled: "Important Information!" And the OP reads "I hate Glenn Beck!!"
I'll unrecommend it.
Suppose the source is a bad one.
I'll unrecommend it.
Suppose the topic is just another vanity thread.
I'll unrecommend it.
If it says "here's my take on ...."
I'll unrecommend it.
Any thread I bother to open will be recommended or unrecommended, depending on degree of substance or suckage.
