I am disabling the thumbs-up widget. I will find another.
The makers of the widget installed a time release change in the app that requires a paid upgrade to prevent it fromĀ bloating up with stupid messages promoting themselves. It’s bogging the comment section down. They made no mention of this when I installed it.

Yep.
There was a time when there were dozens of thumb widgets.
Now they all want to be paid before even installing.
If it doesn’t work or it sucks you’re out 30 bucks a shot.
I know little of the programming, site development, widgets, etc. or the frustrations you experience in making this site as good as it is and your efforts to make it even better.
THUMBS UP !!!!
So you simply commuted all of Bad_Brad’s Thumb-downs!?
Fur is a bleeding heart liberal!
Good, that rating image use to keep popping up and pissing me off.
Loco, I think he was probably alarmed at the rate you were wearing out mouse buttons
Ditto what Doc says…
Just T-D’d you Brad.
If your gonna falsely accuse me I might as well.
Granted JohnS likely was the grand slam T-D champ.
What is this on the comments right now? It seems fine to me and no huge, annoying pop-up telling me percentages I don’t need to know.
Loco, relax slick. It was a joke
Thanks, now no more pie sol adds every time I click on a article.
That’s good news for all the iOTWReport trolls.
They can put their thumbs back up their azzes.
The P*ne S*l Ads should be killed. The ad company put in a ticket a week ago to spike them.
Are you still getting them??
thanks bfh. the percentage thingy was irritating.
Wasn’t it?
And it kept recommending the same 3 posts over and over.
Whatever you have been doing is working.
The text box isn’t freezing anymore, and the stream of malicious sites blocked by Malwarebytes is gone.
Thanks for all you do BFH. Keep up the good work. I’m sorry that this site is such a royal pain in the petute, but Iove you for your persistence and endurance. When I get onto this site, I feel less alone. Again, thanks for all you do!
@Tired Mom: AMEN!

@BFH – I sure hope the plugin we’ve got now is satisfactory from a site management perspective. It works OK from the users’ point of view. Simple and obviously a lot faster than that cruddy RatingsWidget.
p.s. Watch out for neighbor mohammadmen, please. That’s not a joke.
Thank you BFH, and God Bless You and Yours.
loco, BB rightfully fingered you as MR. TD.
It was never refuted by management.
Don’t try to pin it on me!
After all, I get more TDs than anyone and don’t want the competition.
JohnS, you know the deal is in the long run I Loco cracks me up. You on the other hand have an agenda. You’re just not very good at executing it. In fact you suck at it.
BB, I probably do suck at doing what you imagine me doing.
I do a bit better at the things I am actually doing.
You, on the other hand, have apparently decided to take suck as a lifestyle rather than investing the effort to change your circumstance.
Seriously Brad. If you have half the skills you claim there is no reason you can’t pull yourself up by your bootstraps and succeed in spite of corrupt cesspool we live in.
