Yes, completely ignore my point and focus on the language.

I'll ask again, how is people hurting your feelings with ratings stopping you expressing your opinion?

Alright, let's go back to what Citizen said: never did he say or imply that ratings stop users from expressing their opinion. That's what you came up with on your own (again, an example of groupthinking: no one but very, very few users will call you out on making up words and putting them in people's mouths).
Now, if you ask "how is people rating posts hurt the discourse of the forum?", the answer is simple: when you only need to click "Agree" or "Brofist" instead of replying with an opinion of your own, discourse is lost because people aren't adding anything to the discussion.

Remember Tacgnol, a guy who put a load of people on ignore is trying to lecture you on the nuances of open discourse.

There's an idea, let's get rid of the ignore system in favor of open discourse. No citizen should be unable to hear what another citizen has to say, no matter how vile or degenerate. One Avatar One Citizen One Forum

Buttons are idiotic and are the main factor that's contributed to the decline of the forum. Group think is rampant because buttons insentivize it and every topic is hyper politicized now. If you really want to piss people off and improve discourse on these forums remove buttons.

Shut up fag. I had to quote you to find out who you are. Fag.

I don’t understand, if people don’t like buttons, then why don’t they just turn off button alerts?

It's time to consider that the raptor might have some kind of mental illness and not be fit to lead. I demand tax records and a full anal exam at once.

If you meant to say putting people on ignore is better than being spammed with retard ratings.

Nah, I meant to say what I said. People like Dreed are the epitome of what's wrong with the forum: they have nothing to say, but instead of moving on they spam ratings, of any kind, like crazy.

Argentinians don't mean what they say, the Argentinian existence consists of lying from one choripan to the next, saying and doing anything without morality or forethought for the next choripan hit.

I mean if you want to be coherent how about we disable browsing the forum for non-members, eh? Fuck all the lurkers: they have nothing to say, and are just wasting the real users' bandwidth like crazy, am I right? Leeching their fucking ideas without anything new to provide, not even a fucking rating. And how about members too? Fucking mouthbreathers wasting even more bandwidth than the lurkers, spamming like crazy with nothing to say. How 'bout we close down the site, eh? Afterall it's all that is wrong with the internet and it's been said since day one it was going downhill.

Buttons at least let people interact even if it's to a lesser extent.
