Title: Yahoo Group RATE YOUR DATE
Post by: RevMC on September 05, 2007, 10:57:11 pm
COULDN"T FIGURE OUT HOW TO DELETE POST.

BAD IDEA SO MODIFIED THIS POST.

PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!  I'm not a terrible person, was just trying to help others.  Guess I just couldn't think of anything negative about the idea, try to keep negativity out of my life.

God I wish I could undo ever posting this!

It's tough enough to put myself out there already.
I don't know that I'd want to read the critique the morning after.

What a horrible proposal. I'm surprised that such a venal, nasty idea would come from you Rev.

I guess I gave you more credit than you deserved.

Um...no offense meant Rev, but I find this an Appalling Idea. Just saying.

Edited to add: One of my mantras in life = Treat others as you wish to be treated yourself.
The website you are proposing stings with meanness.

Wow, how mean spirited. Perfectly nice people just might get hurt in the process. I'll pass thanks.

OK everyone, thanks for the help and input.

I was thinking that it would save a lot of heart ache and trouble when trying to find a great date.  Especially if the person has a lot of faults that others find offensive.  Got the idea from a commercial.  A man shows up at the door with flowers, woman answers door, tells guy to wait.  Next scene she's going to her computer, does some typing, goes back to door.  She says "Tom" he says "Yes", she then slaps him on the face and slams the door shut.

She went on-line and found out he was a bad choice for a date.

Oh well, didn't think of any negatives about it.  So it's a no go.  Like another pos says, one persons frog is someone else's prince charming.

So PLEASE don't get me wrong, I'm not an evil person, just didn't think everything through.

Please forgive me.

The group is deleted, idea thrown away.

Michael,

I really  wish you hadn't deleted/edited your first post because it makes all the following posts nonsensical. You had an idea, you threw it in the ring, and other people didn't like it. So what? No harm done. Now that you've thought more and seen other people's perspectives on it, you thought better of it. That's fine! Not every idea a person comes up with is going to be a winner and it doesn't mean you're a bad person.

But PLEASE don't go deleting a post again! It's actually kinda rude when you think about it - it makes it look like you don't care that people took the time to consider what you said and took the time to respond.

I'm glad you revised your thinking about this, Rev, because imagine you were the guy with the flowers and you got that slap in the face coming from nowhere. It's the woman having to looking at a computer to figure this out which is a real bad date, not the guy.
