There are members here that make very eloquent and interesting threads, the only people I have on my friends list are people that have impressed me with their coherent knowledge on certain topics, be they a skeptic or not. Therefore, I don't really give out many stars or flag many posts or put many people in my friends list. I don't play favorites or support anyone. That's not what I'm here for.
I don't come to ATS to make friends -- I come here to learn about truths and the discussions therein. If I wanted to participate in a topic made by a moderator that has 70 stars and 95 flags (nobody in particular at the present), I'd go elsewhere. This silly system of building a friend list and having one's ego boosted by receiving stars should be on Myspace, not ATS.

I never star or flag my own content as that should be left to the judgement of my fellow members.

Whoa. I want to make very clear, and very right up front, this is no way some kind of appeal for friends. I already have plenty.
