Of course, I used your earlier post as a springboard to make my point to recognize the need to NOT shit on members who want to exercise stronger levels of personal opsec (by engaging in the opposite of praising a member for their loose - and perhaps dumbass opsec), so I understand that some written out points can be misunderstood.

There can be all kinds of nuances of perspectives regarding whether some online persona is likeable or not or the extent to which they contribute to the form, and/or the degree in which they are popular on the forum.  

I don't see any need for me or anyone else to have to express how much they might like someone or not, yet those kinds of likeability could come out by giving merits or trust or might come out by whether and how the person responds to posts (which likeablity can also change over time and the personal criteria that might be used).  Some folks have thicker skins than others, and for example, we know some folks (thinking about the current USA president) who publicly lashes out at anyone who even implies that they might not like him or question his narcissistic perspectives on life.
