Folks DV for high KE, and both of them say 'It's my stake. I can do what I want.' BTW, HF28 has screwed me hard. A week ago I blew my VP following a long conversation and upvoting points I agree with, and then suddenly my VP was depleted. If I try to politely upvote folks I am conversing with, my VP plunges back down, and I can't bear to not be polite as I have been since I got here. VP is below 16% again, for the 5th day in a row, and I have to stop upvoting - but I don't want to miss out on your valuable criticism in this conversation, and I don't want to be rude.

So, if you will forgive me for picking your brain without paying you the pennies it's worth (LOL j/k) please, let us reason together.
