I agree with you Andrea. They are a childish distraction and this facility needs to go.

Thanks bob. Well I guess that settles it Andrea. We must bow to the forum decision.

You could take the Irish approach to the Lisbon treaty, and just keep holding referenda until the people vote yes  ;)

IMO, it is often the minority that knows whats best for the majority. ;)

Personally they don't bother me, but if smites are to go, then applauds should go too.

Andy, you're right. It just detracts from what we're trying to say, and it's spiteful. It's just basically a few sad sods who stay up all night, grinding their axe. Take it away, go back to the spirit of the forum when Mike was in charge, and lets crack on.

There is something hysteriacally comical about a grown person sitting up all night smiting members of a forum.  ;D I can just see it, some grumpy ole azz, waiting for hour after hour to pass to smite again and again! OMG!
I don´t care about the smites, one way or the other; but they are often talked about and seem to bother a lot of people, so perhaps they should be removed.
