Did they at least leave a comment of why they neg rep you?Originally Posted by RyougaZell
I doubt it matters the reason they neg rep, some people are just overly concerned with the final score.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
stop neg repping people for no reason. i got one today that said "I don't like you". if you don't like me then put me on your ignore list. chances are i don't like you either and, judging by the fact that your neg rep didn't have any effect on me, it would seem that a bunch of other people around here don't like you either. i'm pretty sure that this person is the same person that's left me other unwarranted neg reps before.
I don't see why you should care. Take a look at the people's posts that actually have rep. Most post a bunch of nonsense and fanboy chatter. They suck each others cocks and pos rep each other, and that's how it's built up. Say anything against the grain or thought provoking and you'll get neg repped. It's how humanity works. Anyone who sticks out gets hated. I really don't give a shit about who's neg repping me. I'm more interested in who's Pos repping me. Sometimes I get commentless pos reps! Whomever's pos repping me, send me a PM with it as well. Maybe you're someone I can have an intelligent conversation with. Maybe it's just BoC messing with me.
I've read some of your posts roboto, so I doubt they did it "for no reason".
If it didn't affect your rep, why worry about it? Does the one red box in the field of green really matter that much to you?

I agree with everything JaySee is saying, and some of the pos reps you got were from me, except I usually leave comments, if not a signature. I am somewhat intelligent and think the same of you. However, I am antisocial so I have no interest in talking to you further .

HAHA! Look at this moronic neg-rep someone gave me for the above post.
Solicit - to make a petition or request, as for something desired.seriously stop whining. Also what u just stated still counts as rep soliciting
Thus, Rep Soliciting = requesting rep. Something I most certainly did NOT do. Thus is the intelligence of the people who neg-rep me... I wonder if he neg-reps BoC for every single post he makes because his sig is most definitely a rep solicitation.
By the way... Speaking of the guidlines; does anyone actually FOLLOW THEM?
I highly doubt the first is followed. Most people by nature are haters. Especially on this board.Try to give out more positive reputation hits than negative ones.
No soliciting rep hits.
Don't take it too seriously.
Leave comments with your rep hits.
The second one is broken by every post of BoC.
Most of these neg-reppers and the people complaining about them definitely don't follow the third.
The fourth is what I just commented on previously.

Sorry no, BoC, for the same reason I won't with Jaysee.
Dang, I never read the rules about rep soliciting. I don't know if my sig violates this rule, though I haven't received any warning or reps citing my rep soliciting.

I just got another stupid neg-rep
I'm just a few neg-reps from catching up to you Animeniax.this post bores me, as does the rest of the thread.
Here's a few more genius tid-bits.
A simple google search proves this so very wrong.carnage was out way before T1000
Some classic fanboy rage.you should be banned asshole. get the hell out of this forums, your kind only makes this planet sick
I think the rep system would work better if it wasn't anonymous. Then people would be accountable for their meanness and/or fanboyism.
I'm at -475 JaySee. Have you read my posts in Off Topic lately? Those will ensure I'm in the -600s in a couple days.

I'm only at -322. I'm not posting much anymore. I'm bored of fighting the fanboys and their unintelligent responses. By the way, you and I have no repping power, so your reps don't actually do anything. I'm not sure what's the positive for making the repping anonymous myself either. On some other boards I'm on, the repping has names attached. This leads to interesting PM conversations and debates.
I envy you guys. Spread the love.

The flood of "smart" neg-reps continue.
Oooh! Now they're trying to be shakespearean!We all know you are but a whiner, no matter how much you pretend to enjoy your neg rep.
Uhh.... yeah... that makes sense... So no longer anonymous = soliciting?pfft Idiot.. Asking for pos reppers to PM you leads to soliciting because it does not remain anynonymous and was outlawed by complich8 a while back
Funny how this "outlawing" is not stickied anywhere.
Found where it's outlawed. Nice broken logic on how signing a rep = soliciting.
The beautiful maturity of these forums.watch as I give you a neg rep for no reason
I'm at -351 now Animeniax. Someone's really going out of their way for me.

I'm stuck at -480. I think all the fanboys have to spread more reputation before getting back to neg repping me, so you might get dangerously close to my score before I make the leap to the -500s.
Once again though, it's plain to see that this system doesn't work, but it is a lot of fun to mess with.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer?

I bet whoever's leaving those hilarious reps cry while they masturbate.
Seriously, I'm all for leaving neg reps if you don't like someone, but if you wanna have an argument, do it in the forums, not through the rep system. It defeats the whole purpose of the forums in the first place. Fanboy rage indeed.
I remember getting a neg rep a while back telling me that "Simpsons rule" when I mentioned how the more recent seasons sucked. I would have loved to discuss this properly in the thread, but I never got the chance . The Simpsons recent suckage is something I'm quite passionate about.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
i find it funny that you two actively seek out negative reputation, then complain about the comments when you get it... Well, I for one will no longer feed into it.
I've always been in favor of a certain level of negative reputation resulting in a ban (say 200 or so), since, to me, that low of a rep would indicate that the collective forum disproves of that user and would, overall, be happier if that person was banned. However, some feared that one or two spam-reppers would ostracize new, subpar posters without the "public mandate" that I envisioned low rep signifying.
However, in light of current events, I'd like to seek to institute a rule that would do just that. The rep system was made partly to reward good posters and punish bad ones, but now we have people delighting in getting on people's nerves. Personally, I consider "seeking neg reps" through intentionally poor and/or controversial posting habits to be trolling, and I'd like it to end.
So, I'd like to propose the following rule and hear what people have to say about it:
If a user reachs -200 reputation, has more than 10 posts, and has been an active forum member for more than two months, that user recieves a month long ban. At the end of that month, that user's rep is adjusted to return to -100, and he/she is allowed to return to the forums. However, a second time reaching -200 (barring extraordinary circumstances) will result in a permanent ban.
To me this is more than fair. -200 is an incredibly low reputation to reach, almost always requiring a high number of forum members to neg rep that person. Brand new members who might not yet be acclimated to forum posting would not be hurt, since they'd have two whole months after joining to improve.
The offender would even get a second chance, and the extraordinary circumstances would be people neg-repping that person for no good reason after they've returned, or a very small number of persistent neg-reppers to cause that person to slip down -100 points. The staff has the ability to see what posts were repped and by whom.
I'd like to see what people have to say about this.
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
