Why are Mods allowed to star posts more than us regulars?

It was a joke.

If it was a joke it was at my expense......

Even the owners can't read our U2Us.

Yes, they can. I had to have them get involved with a person some years ago who was making violent threats.

So did I and SO couldn't get into my U2Us.

This was just last year btw so things may have changed since you had your altercation.

True, I lost my log-in details a year or so ago and confirmed it was me by detailing a few private messages.
Technically anything is possible, and only a fool would discuss anything really private in a 'private' message lol

Actually, it was at Augustus expense more than yours, because I know he gets it. (Probably more than I do.)

Why is everyone arguing?

Actually, I didn't get it but I will allow you to use your Pecking Order Card to get out of this one.

Meanwhile, Domo's u2u history is being checked to see which mod spilled the beans......

At which point does this start becoming stupid and offensive?

I think it's at the point where we stand accused of checking Private Messages, which would be a terrible invasion of privacy if we even had that capability.

Because you are a stinky, jerk-face.

Lol, I actually enjoy it when I'm arguing with someone in a thread and they get 10+ instant stars for every response they shoot back at me.
It's almost exciting knowing that I've got the crowd against me but they haven't got the balls to post an actual comment.

This card can only be played against higher level players. So you think Klassified is lower level huh.....

There are not called "private messages", they are called U2U's.

a reply to: DBCowboy

Off course, this becomes apparent way before you hand them out.

a reply to: Hazardous1408

There is a reason I'm just not going to blab why.

I can assure you that technically that they can and it likely requires little to no effort , even if the message are encrypted or non persistent.

There is a reason why many gov't agencies, corporations, and technical individuals don't like to put sensitive information on the cloud, or other peoples database, or systems controlled by others.

So what? We all understood it.
Have you been previously banned and come back or just lurked for years?
You seem so knowledgeable about the inner workings of ATS lol

If you click on the envelope at the upper right of your screen, you will see that they are called "private messages".

Just sayin'.

a reply to: Domo1

A mod told me they were giving you the secret-squirrel test to see if you were trustworthy enough to join the club. You failed. Massively.

I finally understand the reason why some utter tripe ends up with a biased amount of stars. It all depends on the leanings & inclination of the mods who are lurking. It really does bring a lot of confusion into utter clarity. Thanks for posting, glad to know.
