User reputation system - Page 12

Also, chances are the people who have high rep have had a lot of neg rep as well. I know I have gotten tons for stupid reason... but chances are you're also getting way more pos rep if you really deserve it. Also, neg rep from jerks tends to be either worth nothing, or -1 point... it's really not that big of a deal. Only time you should be worried is if you're pissing off high rep users or the mods, and I don't think most high rep users throw around neg rep for the fun of it.

The only reason I would agree with you is because of the people who dont have enough guts to leave their name, and instead leave someone elses, and the fact that many return bad rep, and good rep. It's not a true reflection. I think I will speak to unixmad about this

I don't agree with the way you and SN would check who actually gives rep (especially posting it publicly), but signing someone else's name is low.

I only give out that info if the person signed someone elses name.

Gonna make it so we can all see the reputation author in our profiles, not just administrators?

I've never quoted someone else's name, what good does that do for you?

I only give it out if someone asks me, and if it is falsely signed.

You shouldn't let some petty thing like people on the internet get to you. Who cares if they suddenly decide you're unlikeable because you like a certain band, I wouldn't like you either if you cared.

It doesn't bother me. I don't think i even have any neg rep aside from one individual who neg reped me for asking a question. Then three people pos reped me to undo it.

Rep is joke, and furthermore, if you honestly think people on graal have to have a reason to give bad rep, that is also a joke. I see threads all the time of people arguing over dumb things and im sure people pass neg rep around as like a "HAH I GOT YOU" type of thing. Or a better example is when everyone was making threads and posts about the UN vs era battle thing. I wouldn't be surprised if Squirt, Chris, or Speedy got neg reped.

And i think it's hypocritical to say someone cares to much when they want names shown than those who don't want names shown because they care to much that they will get mean pm's because they neg or pos reped someone.

P.S. Heres another example: i got neg reped for my post, and i'd like to think someone doesn't hate me over a simple post. I knew someone would want to do it, but im glad someone proved my point?

It's not fun to "HAH I GOT YOU" random people, obviously there would need to be a reason to enjoy "get someone", which yet again completes the circle "hurr u deserved it".

papajchris · #**177** 05-17-2010, 05:04 AM

so i deserved neg rep for my opinions in this thread? I fail to see how my opinion causes me to deserve neg rep. So yet again completes the circle of people abusing rep. And im sure more neg rep is to follow

Your post got neg rep because someone didn't like that post. Make good posts, get good rep. Post something someone dislikes, get neg'd. That's how it works. It's meant to represent how well you post/appear to be. If you're a chump and post like one, you get unliked and negative rep'd until you're in the red.

Likewise, if you're a cool guy, and by extension, have good posts, you end up with tons of little green bars that you can redeem for KFC.

Giving reputation is an opinion in itself...don't take it so personally

In other words your simply saying if someone has a difference of opinion you should be neg reped? I disagree with your opinion. Will i neg rep you? No. Now if you were trolling/spaming then i would. Maybe we have a difference in opinion of what rep should be representing. You make it sound like it should simply show if someone likes the post or not. While i feel it should represent who respects the community and who is useless to the community.

Not taking it personal, just trying to understand when i should be neg reping someone, or pos reping someone.
