How to remove a rating

Is there a way to remove a rating now?

Thanks!

If you mean an already completed rating for a completed transaction I dont think so.....I dont recall there being one previously either.

If you mean for a pending rating you have not used yet I know there used to be a delete option.....cant tell right now as I have no pending ratings. Though I dont think its likely that ability was removed.....

How to remove a rating

So I didn't pay for a year or so and then decided to rejoin. I paid my new yearly fee and all my ratings were gone! No way to get them back. So, my experience tells me for you to just stop your membership by not paying for a while and when you rejoin, all your ratings should be gone. Good Luck! (Just my experience.) I am HAPPY I am still alive but now know lifetime memberships don't last as long as you think!

Pretty sure it has always worked this way since the yearly membership fee of $15 was implemented. Membership and support are not the same thing. Everyone pays the $15 yearly fee for membership. If you pay the lifetime supporter fee then you get all the benefits a supporter gets in perpetuity (or at least as long as you maintain your membership) but you still have to pay the yearly $15 regardless. You are probably correct though....if you stop paying the membership fee for whatever reason then you are taking your chances with your data......

An inconvenient truth for the left

Posted By Greg Shaffer

I have seen a couple of regulars here attempt to claim there was a switch in the south regarding liberals vs conservatives recently

There actually was in a sense.....Here are the real facts behind it.

Don't try to confuse the left with facts, they've been brainwashed by their masters that the Democrats in office switched parties.  

Truth is always anathema to the left.  

But that was a good Prager U video.  All of them are very good.

You know, the very ones the trauma surgeons are talking about in the post. 
And the NRA's response to all of this? "Stay in your lane"...
Geez.. 
Oh"
"But when it comes to gun deaths per capita, the U.S. ranks 20th, at a rate of 10.6 per 100,000 deaths — putting it on par with the Dominican Republic. Many places with high gun death rates had fewer deaths than the U.S. because of smaller populations."

Proving once again that the statistics and facts dont matter.....just how you feel LOL
