How much did you start with?
Starting point was 712.
Putting aside the fact that this idea basically ridicules the reason that the system was first put in place for. It do make fun of those that constantly whine about every single rep that they thought was unfair and stupid blah blah blah....... Here is a person with a pretty respectable rep trying to make his way to the very bottom, it ridicules both the system and the people whole make the system unbearable at times. But since all the drama has basically went away I am kinda torn, "is this a good idea or just another mistake...."
Well whatever if the forces to be can let it go why the hell can't I....
Anyways if you want to achieve your goal. Go and piss assertnfailure and BUD as well as jad and XDM; if you can find them. Since they basically have the highest repping power those are they guys that are key to your goal.Assertnfailure and Bud are pretty easy to piss off, and I am guessing that he is already helping out. For Bud well make a mistake or two in the threads that his is intensely involved in and you should get your result. All of this is only possible of course, if the mods repping power haven't been limited. I know that the admins has been capped at +/- 25 but i don't recall if the mods were.
Anyways good luck I guess.
p.s. I am interested to know complich8's thoughts on this matter.....

I'm pretty sure all the top brass are okay with it. No complaints so far.
And I'm not going to go out of my way to get neg reps (other than my sig). This is purely a voluntary "support the movement" thing. I'm not going to go out and shit on threads to speed it up.
the other part that makes it hard to help him achieve his goal is the rule about spreading the reps around. it's more difficult than i thought to find other people to rep that i wouldn't have repped in the first place. i guess that is going to throw the system off too. although, i don't think that i have much power when it comes to repping members. however, i did go back to some older threads and found members that i should have repped before i figured out how the system worked.
On principle, I disapprove of the whole affair. I don't like this thread having been hijacked as it has been, but I should have locked it about 6 pages ago when it started going south to begin with.
On the other hand, making fun of that also diminishes the drama, and as Roboto points out, for people to participate they've got to go around repping people, which drives overall rep participation and theoretically actual forum participation, all of which is positive.
I think the positives of the exercise outweigh the negatives, so I'm mildly in support of this, inasmuch as I'll allow it to go on. So long as BoC doesn't adopt the asinine posting style of the people he's trying to compete with, that is.
Hey I didn't hijack this thread. I started my own thread in General and Masa merged it with this.
If you wanted me to, I could go through and pick out all these posts and remake it into a separate one, then lock and delete it on grounds of being trolling/contentless. And then I'd have to warn you and go on a massive repping spree to Pos Rep you as many times as possible to stop your little plan.
And stop posting so much on this thread, like comp asked. Have your fun, but keep it relativey slop-free.

Only problem with that is that it usually takes me a while to rep 12 different people (or however many the min limit is) before I can rep a person again.Originally Posted by dragonrage

I still don't understand this...![]()
Lol, good work BoC, I think it's cool that you might manage to fully destroy the utility of the rep system. I've already gotten one rep with the text "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Board of Command again." and I doubt i'm the only one or that it'll be the last.
If enough people get in on this and keep handing out random reps just to get another shot at BoC the numbers for most people should completely stop having meaning within a month or two. A semi-viable solution would be to collectively choose 12 other people and designate them as rep recovery resevoirs, repping one post by each of these people then returning to BoC. If these 12 people would be the only ones with completely bogus reputations BoC could have his fun while the rest of the system would still have what meaning it did before.

You bring up a good point, Yuki. My progress would probably slow down to a grind in a few days due to the way the rep system is set up. The problem with the bogus system is that you can only rep one post once, so these bogus accounts must keep making new posts to receive more reps. Oh well...we'll see how far the current system will take me.
