This anonymous rep thing is bullshit. We should be able to call out stupid fucks like this. LOL

It's internet points. No one should care about it. If you do, just give davidI a positive rep over any of his posts to counteract it.

Who do you think I am? @ExtraSlow ? Nah, I don't care about it at all, but, it would be good to know who so I know how much to value their opinions. I expect a comment like that out of Toma, whom I had blocked. People like this, I would block as well.

Internet pointz r lyfe though
Ask anyone on reddit

For whoever wants to get into leaving negative reps over the Israel / Palestine debate, I'd suggest you get a life.

Wasn't me... I don't use the rep system at all.

Anyone who gets their feelings hurt enough to leave negative rep is a lil bitch. If they don’t sign it and leave it anonymous, they’re a huge bitch.

Haha, it's just internet points as others mentioned. Just found it funny that someone would be so indoctrinated that they'd go out of their way to do that. I didn't meant to distract from the tragedy at all.

There are some crazy videos coming out from people who were in the middle of getting married or even giving birth during the explosion.

I hope there is enough stimulus with the re-construction to help Lebanon get out of its political and economic mess.

Someone with a RPG filled with molten nickel instead of molten copper could probably have done it with a single shot. Nickel being a very effective immediate catalyst.

But arguably, anyone who drove a car with a leaking gas tank and a static spark = Could have set off that load. Its what Timothy McVeigh did (although on a much smaller scale)

Admins can see who gave rep, yes. Heck, they can even read all the PMs sent on a board. There's nothing anonymous on vBulletin.

This is why if the international community really wants to help Lebanon heal, it should not only send aid and offer support, but also acknowledge what really happened in Beirut on August 4: a failing state, through negligence, incompetence and corruption, destroyed its own capital and killed its own citizens.

Al-Jazeera is one of the most honest networks I've seen. They obviously have biases but their reporting and video seems far more accurate to reality in my opinion. Granted, I used to watch the Middle East feed and was comparing it to BBC, MSNBC, and CNN.

Seems everyone is checking their ports for ticking time bombs now... let's hope there are no more disasters: https://www.arabnews.com/node/1716626/middle-east

There might have been a time when you could take Al Jazeera seriously - but that was a long time ago. I'm not sure the turning point, but their hilariously bad coverage of the Charlie Hebdo situation forever killed their reputation in my view.

Could be worse I suppose

Well, he did capitalize and use a period.

I think that may be a complete sentence, is it not?

Depends. If they just meant 'The' in German, you can't have a sentence consisting only of an article. So jokes on them.

I respectfully submit that he was not switching to German.

We can see rep, but we have never snooped on PMs. We’ve never installed any plug ins to do so even though they’re out there. We have better things to do, and we’re better than that.
