Reputation System: Dramatics and Whining

[dragonrage]

so days of our rep are getting back on air, huh.

*DrAgE pulls up a chair.....*

[Deadfire]

I just love that every good post I make that I try to help members out is sniped by neg reps from some asshat that has to hide their name from me because they are weak bastards

If you don't like the fact i try to help people, Then you are a sad, sad, bunch of elitest bastards

Why don't you try it sometime, I know that you asshats don't

[xDarkMaster]

I totally agree. I have gotten plenty of neg reps because when I post a scanlation or something people don't like sendspace or rapidshare or w/e host is used.

However, it is kinda the rules to not sign reps and, no offense, but I doubt you sign all your neg reps. You mods and admins need to stop taking reps and the whole deal so seriously and personally.

[Terracosmo]

I have a problem. I don't need to sign my reps, people somehow understand it's me anyway :O

[Knives122]

Maybe you should stop acting like you do on the forums in your reps me thinks

[Terracosmo]

Godamnit, that's not possible! It would be out of character, it would... *brain melts*

[dragonrage]

the terra attack. Why would anyone want to change that. I mean really, it is all part of the Gotwoot experience.

They say sarcasm isn't conveyd well over the net... The sarcastic humour in my pic edit didn't please somebody (although the idea for the pic was from another poster), but likewise I fail to see the intended sarcasm in this neg rep.



(Just included the other two hits into the pic to show 2/3 still think it was a decent post.)

Edit: In compliance to Bud Bauer's request: The post

[xDarkMaster]

Lol, looks like you and I got hit by the same person.



-_-

I thought yours was a pretty funny post, personally

[Munsu]

Come on', if you guys are going to whinne about reps, at least quote the post you got neg repped on.

[Honoko]

My personal favorites are the ones where you receive a neg rep with no comment nearly a week after you actually post.

[ChaosK]

I've gotten ones from posts in 2005.

oh man, this cracks me up!

*shuts the door to the lounge so the laughter isn't heard*

edit- and no, it wasn't me.

on a seriouser note, i think this just goes to prove: Sometimes it doesn't matter how good of a post you make. If someone doesn't like you and wants to kick you in the e-rep nuts, they will use anything. It's just best to ignore them, cuz it's handing them their victory when you get mad about it like they wanted you to.

[ChaosK]

It's probably an excuse for a neg rep, if they're gun-pointed they'll say "I meant to put it as a pos rep, my bad" then go laugh manically behind the door...

[Kraco]

ATTENTION: This may contain a slight One Piece spoiler, although I'm not sure of that since I don't watch the future episodes.

I shouldn't post so much in this thread, but I got a neg rep that's too funny not to report here. And it was probably the first inappropriate neg rep that didn't piss me off because it's so goofy.



And the post in question looked like this:

Robin's mom? I thought she looked somewhat (that is, a lot) similar to Robin, and was thinking it must be her sister or a cousin, or something. I guess she's introduced in one of those future episodes subbed by other groups. I've only watched K-F subs, so I had no idea.

Quite nice pics, nonetheless.

Now, as you can see, in my own opinion I DID notice the "resemblence". Which of course leads me to think this neg repper person actually went through all the trouble of possibly reading the first two words of my post, and then went berserk and neg repped me...

On a serious note, this finally explain to me some neg repping people are getting. I never thought there were people around who didn't even read the post they were neg repping, but this undeniably proves that to be the case.

[dragonrage]

kraco : quit bitching. It is unbecoming. And if you need to vent there is the bitching thread. Besides, you got a comment, so you can decide for yourself if the opinion of the person giving the rep. is actually worth a damn.

[Kraco]

I thought this thread was meant for that, of late

The rep system has been stabile for a long time now, so certainly this thread isn't anymore meant for discussing the details of the system itself.

Nevertheless, you are right about one thing (not the neg repper but Drage): I've posted in this thread too many times.

[mage]

The main problem with the rep system is that the entire forum jumps all over someone's bad post, but when the same person makes a good post, or even several, they only get a few positive reps. This seems to be a decent way to keep retarded newbs out of the forum though. Spam them with neg reps on their first post and they'll never want to come back.

[ChaosK]

That recently became my personal favorite.
