Promoted to Level 1?......Really?

To clarify for readers and contributors, I received a recent email celebrating my undeserved promotion to Level 1 simply for joining the forum and asking a few simple questions as a new user. Mind you I am not woke nor do I like the newly found Wokeism presently in vogue in the USA.
The response to the email was as follows:
Hello,…… Really! I don’t believe in participation awards. The promotion is meaningless even if only presented in fun. Most all promotions of any sort should be taken seriously and most require some dedicated endeavor on the part of the candidate seeking the promotion. Actually somewhat insulting. Has GB gone woke?

you could run for assistant mayor or misfit isle.........
Well just ignore it then.
It comes with the forum software. Don't get yer panties knotted up over something no one here has any control over.
Gone woke... LOL! NO.
By the way, welcome to the forums! It is customary to gift your favorite gun to the person that responds first to your 4th post.
I bet you are fun to be around.
Alright, and thanks. Ranted this just prior to morning coffee. All better now.

If that is insulting to you, this may not be a good place for you, thin skin doesn't work well here.
Thanks for stopping by
You should see how * my dog gets, before his morning coffee and cigarette!!!! Welcome to the forums. We're just a bunch of regular Joe's that like to converse a few times a day. Been a member on here for 23 years, and learned a lot of thing from the Kids. LOL. Lots of knowledge and good people here. Oakie
Oh, And redneckancy. My poor wife would agree wholeheartedly.
More later.
Yuppp... The awarding of stars is meaningless but it got you to participate even if it was in a grumpy way. Personally this forum has helped me become what I am today;
Sometimes my wife doesn't appreciate the forum. I wonder why? Bob
I read your post before anyone else had responded, Was gonna close it then, (was still on my first cup of coffee) Decided to see where it would go... Well it went about as I expected. HPD gave you some good advice, but in case you didn't get it check out this link to the forum guidelines:
And now I will do what I probably should have...
BTW Welcome to the loony bin. Stick around, it gets fun sometimes....
You're also close to your first LOL badge. Can't wait to see you flip out over that.
