It is someone with several IDs in
most cases. I do not take it personally
since the ratings are not a good
indication of the quality of a post
or an idea. Best to look for yourself
if you are interested and ignore the
numbers game since it is often a ploy
to irritate the poster rather than
indicate whether a post is worthy of
the time it takes to read it.
Sometimes the numbers can reflect
a good post but, lol, not so often
in the Debate Forums .
