Ideas for a new rep system

[sealadaigh]

I think that it is pretty obvious to anyone that the rep system that we have is open to corruption and abuse !!! To give you some idea of why I sat this let me describe my situation. Over the past two months I have lost approximatly 15,000, rep points at the hands of four people. One poster has neg reped me approximatly 24 times, they have gone so far in their hatred as to go back to some of my posts that were posted before they came on the board to neg rep me, I try to not let it bother me but it is getting old fast. Now this is our board and I think that it is our obligation to come up with some ideas to improve it and offer them to the adminestrators.

The first idea that comes to my mind is that for all noobs no points should be lost for to first year, still allow neg reps and comments so they can learn but don't take the reps.

Please come up with your own Ideas and submit them here.

P.S. If you would like to give me some pos reps to make up for the ones I have lost and am continuing to lose that would be great.

thanks

its called peer review..... if someone disagrees with your post.... live with it and stop whining.

And damn... not only is this a rep whine thread... its a rep whoring one too.


Pull up your big girl panties and get a life.

Dude has a point though - its always that someone dislikes your post -its when they search through your posts, looking for one they can neg - and it might not even be a bad post. Its sneaky, and sly.

But I don't agree with not allowing noobs to lose rep for the first 12 months - that's way too long. I think perhaps an ability to turn off neg rep could be an option - this would mean that you couldn't receive negs, nor issue them.

But all in all, I am okay with the system the way it is. I get negs because some of my posts deserve one, to be honest. You learn as you go, pretty much.

i've read your posts and they are all excellent and consistent. the only one i thought you deserved a "neg" on was the one you didn't make. you allowed QW to make a very bigoted and hateful comment on what was called a "feel good" thread. i lost all respect got you after that. prior to your silence, i had the utmost respect for you...and the same with some other posters on that thread. (one of you said she would stop posting on the new thread. that didn't last long.)

but...silence is golden, as they say..and certainly speaking out is not worth losing any sleep, or rep points, over.

It's titled 'FREE REP!' : ))

Which is why the whiners got their 48 hour rule. And considering you joined after he did.... look at your rep compared to his. Doesn't that tell you something? Its not just about what you post.... its also about how much you post.

From what i see, he is about average..... and not in some imagined rep hole.

it is simple. just barter off your integrity and you will get rep points.

keep your posts short and tell the liberals to go to hell.

call muhammad a "pig fucking pedophile and rapist" and trash the U.N. and immigrants...or at least don't argue with those who do.

look, go to the free rep thread and join up with that little social, holier-than-thou clique, keep your nose clean while you are sticking it up people's asses and you are good.

there is supposed to be some rule about bartering rep, but peeps look the other way.

but whatever you do, have fun with it and enjoy it. i remember fondly PMs calling me a "cocksucker" and the like from gutless people who didn't dare respond to me on the board. i am still having fun with it. two of my fave neggers, jillian and warrior 102, were having fits because they couldn't neg me and almost begging me to get back in the system so they could neg me...lol.

jesus man...are you still going on about mad scientists thread? Get over it.

and ...its simpler even then that...... say what you what and don't give a rats ass about rep.

You cared enough about rep.... to turn yours off. And for all your rep being off.... you are still whining about it. Go figure.

This is the last post I was negged for: I agree that negging a post like the above is an abuse of the system.

lolol...you're the one who's whining. i was just telling the little pussy how to get his rep up.

maybe if you took whatever it is you/ve got up your ass, put in some new batteries, and re-insert it in the proper hole this time, you wouldn't be such a grouch. who knows, you may even crack a smile.

Develop a sense of humor or turn off your rep. The first will help you in life too.

Funny you should mention that, Save - I was just saying that very thing (about humor, not rep!) to the son. The son is home recovering from having his four wisdom teeth gouged out and is not a happy camper.

where am i whining about rep.... i know you were telling him how to increase his rep. I think hes figured out whoring for it..... evidence the op.

Ive also told him.... stop posting in that color and font should also help him. AND that for the amount of posts he has.. his rep is about average. Post more.... stay as long..and he will have rep numbers like anyone else.

You say the same thing i do.... post what you want.. and take the rep you get.

its that little bit extra you always seem to throw in......

It still doesn't change the fact you are still whining about mad scientist thread asking you to leave the thread.... and that for someone who has chosen to shut off their reps... still whines about them. (that would be the jillian part if you need to have that pointed out to you)

well damn save...you make a good case point.

why aren't you whining and whoring for reps like the OP????

You only have 1400 or so rep power... and what... 22,000 some odd posts.....AND been here since 2009.

I guess you have thicker skin, take what you get... good and bad.... and don't whine about it as if it matters.




and god damn it...im out for 24! i owe you some

Don't let him read some of my posts then. I'll have him laughing and we'll have pulled stitches.

Thanks button means just as much to me. Give the rep to someone that really wants it. It is nice to know some think you are interesting or helpful. I certainly am not going to change what I think or say for the sake of rep. Self esteem comes from self.

Oh, the great distress is NOT the pain and suffering of having his face puffed out like a chipmunk's.

It's from the inability to ingest FOOOD for a couple of days: this is a 23 y/o male who's doing weight training and is HUNGRY!!!! all the time. Applesauce and yoghurt arejust not cutting it: he wants MEAT.

But this is OK: I am getting my 'fussing over' fix here.

I know the answer to this life crisis! Wendy's Frosty (chocolate of course)

 

[MHunterB]

Ding! ding! Ding! Right you are! : )) I did the next best thing, got a half dozen Yoplait whips in chocolate flavors and put 'em in the freezer. Unfortunately for me, that didn't last very long..... it's kind of like when he was a bitsy little critter. Wakes up about every 4 hours and cries to be fed, LOL!

He's not allowed to have soda or citrus juice, but canned peaches and pears seem to work. I'm going to go buy some 'protein powder' for him and whip him up a smoothie.

milkshakes..... that should do the trick!!! And if he wants the protein.... get some protein power.
