The Rep Thread

Ok - further to various rep seeking individuals, I thought it might be good to have a rep thread specifically for the purpose of getting rep.

So if you are feeling unloved, left out, unappreciated etc,etc and soforth , post here with your reasons and those who fancy can rep you.

Simple.

Also works for neg rep too - if you think you've been bad.... !

Re: The Rep Thread

Problem with this is if you go looking for yep you might get negative rep so its a bit risky

Anyway I managed to save up a £1 in the last few weeks and am off to give it to a local charity as their needs will always come before mine.

Now to find a local bus (is that rain in the air ?) that will take me to the local train station etc so I can get there

bye for now

Re: The Rep Thread

DJ has raised rep-tarting to an art form and IMO that's quite funny in moderation.

Of course +ve rep is always nice, but rep potential isn't the first thing I think of when I post - although I may comment on it as an afterthought if I'm being controversial. What I want to say is more important - I don't self-censor for fear of consequences in the form of negative rep. Unfortunately it seems that there is a growing trend to attach more importance to the rep system than I think it really deserves - is this at the expense of content? - do people post with an eye to gaining +ve or avoiding -ve rep?

Re: The Rep Thread

Some people just give -ve rep for the sake of it. Thankfully there few and far between

Re: The Rep Thread

IMO everyone has an opinion and everyone is entitled to fully believe and voice their opinion. Not everyone will agree with it and some people will feel strongly enough to give either positive or negative rep and its their right to.
The most important thing is that everyone has and does voice their opinions because without opinions there wouldnt be a forum.

Re: The Rep Thread

So far all the rep I've got is from people thinking that something I've said has amused them and made them laugh or that they agree with something I've said and think it rep-worthy. I would rather 'earn' my rep in this way than to have it handed out willynilly. Afterall a reputation (good or bad) is something that has to be earned.

Re: The Rep Thread

I think explicit touting for rep is shocking!

(And maybe someone will agree with me and like to say how much they "approve" of my post. )

So do I get some.... nah, even I'm not that shameless. And I'm now really nice, so maybe it's time for a change of heart.

Re: The Rep Thread

I see our rep total has now disappeared - so no longer any way of telling if someone has given you rep unless you keep checking in User CP. I liked the rep total as that nudged me to look to see any comments given - can we have it back, pretty please?

No, its just not being shown any more. But I think maybe we have enough new changes for now without changing the rep system as well?

Re: The Rep Thread

I've just been out and helped an elderly blind lady cross the road.

i've also just reminded a very confused gent where the alzheimers self help group was meeting... funny thing no one else turned up.

i feel really good about my day so far I just can't wait to help someone else!

Do I deserve any rep?
