Starrimg is an agreement to a post or comment (most of the time). Privacy, even in a post (for liking a comment, etc...) should still be held for those who don't want to be known.

Personally , I Feel It is None of Anyone's Business Who Gives STARS in Posts . The Whole Point of them is an Agreement in Thought between ATS Members . It is Just FINE as it is IMO .

How is that doxxing? You can only star if you have an account. LIke making a post why shouldn't we able to see who starred something. Like I've already said, if you don't want people to know you starred something don't star it?

The bigger question is why wouldn't you want people to be able to see you starred a post?


What if I get bullied because of what I star or don't star?

The consequences will never be the same.

a reply to: Ksihkehe I agree. Stars should remain in the privacy realm. Posts or comments, you'll be either or is expected. But stars can create that neutral point.

Anonymity is one of the key features of this website. If I wanted all my comments, likes, dislikes tracked I'd be on Reddit of Facebook. Just saying...

We are tracking everything you post, Why not who you star?

You don't want us or lurkers to track you? Don't star or comment. Easy?

or like I was saying let lurkers star too and keep it anon. Having only people who wasted their time making an account able to do it. Yet not knowing who did it. Is rather dumb, In my opinion.

As the title suggest hovering over a star should say a name. I want to know who is starring what posts. It matters. I'm surprised when I searched "stars should show how gave them" or something along those lines I see no posts.

This feature needs to be implemented. Yes I know this site is unable to add anything new. Still we can imagine what it would be like in this thread?


There is always facebook you can go to. They do that.

IMO, no. You want separatism. Divide the ATS community, not by their words, but by who they star.

If you want to know who is thinking what, read their posts. Plenty to go around. Stick around here long enough, you know where peoples allegiances lay.

I was going to add something, after that. Then if stars have a name, and you wanted to protect your "privacy" then you wouldn't star such and such posts, for such and such reason. The stars still meaningless but you wouldn't want someone to know you starred this post? for whatever reason? Then don't star it. Doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to see who, just because you might want to post a star but not have anyone make some correlation between what you say and why you starred it.

IF you're really against people building a credit score to your name. Don't post at all right? Only way.

oh who am I kidding, I have no friends, I'm asking for me.

I have 7,052 stars. I'm catching up to you, then you can feel the wrath of what it is to be a plain bellied sort.

lol

I don't want this place to become a starring contest, where people will seek others out to star them should they be aware of who stared what. Politics and covid have already done enough to divide some of us. Content is what matters, IMO.. Sure I have my opinions on things, and I'll post them. But most of the time, when it's not political (except Aus politics) I just opine.

It's cool to see bigger numbers than smaller ones. That is the extent I "care" about my stars. Lol. They are irrelevant and don't really mean anything as far as a metric goes (more stars doesn't mean better posts for example). I don't seek them, post for them. ...I am eying your higher karma!

MUH FEELZ!

Meh

I've never hankered after this. But sometines, when my star or flag stats have suddenly been boosted, I've been curious to know WHICH post has grabbed someone's attention.

If you saw what I star you would be sooo confused.


Me, too. If the peons saw what I starred, I'd have to admit stars are given out based on the amusement factor, not whether or not someone's stance was actually correct.

And the only thing I'm not serious about is calling the peons, peons.
But only a little not serious.
Peons.
