A Vote to Ban Rep Discussion

Leto · #1 08-07-2009, 06:28 PM

I'm really sick of seeing the following two posts time and time again:

:

Man! Fucking +rep you made me laugh so much LOL

interchangable with

:

Man! I'd fucking +rep you if I could (but I already did LOL)

:

I really don't see why you negrep'd me...

I don't think the discussion of rep on a one-post basis (there are many of these, I'm not talking about the Rep Discussion Thread or anything) should be allowed at all, as it is blatant spam that seems to have gone completely under the radar

I agree.
Though I personally don't care all that much about the whole rep system, when I returned to find it I immediately got a kind of "Wow, way to find another way to turn this into Myspace" vibe. People scramble to collect as much rep as possible through dubious means and get butt-hurt when they get neg-repped. Kind of annoying.

Thats my two cents. I'll take it or leave it.

I'm guilty of getting mad when I've gotten negrepped. However, I've stopped caring about the rep system since such times (which were kind of recent :/).

Anyway, if we ban this, I demand we ban pointless conversation concerning alcohol. AWWWWWWW DOOOOOOOD I WAS LIEK SOOOOOOOOOO WASTEEEEEEEEEEEEED.

I agree. This irritates the heck out of me.

While getting rep is fun, getting negrep just takes the fun away.

So don't get negrep.

Plus I think generally (not absolutely) that the people who have problem with rep are those who have little to none of it.

It is pointless though.

Mr. Sheils here was the first to complain, and he has plenty of rep so it seems like a mute point.

As for me, like I said, take it or leave it.

Havoc · #7 08-08-2009, 01:58 AM

Good post. +rep.

MA · #8 08-08-2009, 05:31 AM

i wish i could +rep you for that, Havoc.

shit joke. sorry. anyway i think i am guilty of such instances Leto, and i see its fucking stupid. leave comments about rep in the rep comment box. i don't think i have ever complained publicly about receiving pos or neg rep, but i do babble on about giving it.

i am for banning it.

Isn't this sort of a "Rep discussion" in itself?

Paradox.

It's like rain on your wedding day.

Or getting run over by an ambulance.

OANST · #14 08-08-2009, 08:14 AM

Or like a free ride when you have already paid.

Or a Kamikaze pilot wearing a helmet.

OANST · #16 08-08-2009, 08:44 AM

Or like some good advice that you just didn't take.

Or like rubbing a person's arm with alcohol right before they get a leathal injection.

It's like turning 98, winning the lottery, and then dying the next day.

Or like killing yourself in a prison camp the day before you would've been liberated.

OANST · #21 08-08-2009, 09:49 AM

Or like a black fly in your Chardonnay.

Crashpunk · #22 08-08-2009, 09:57 AM

Is this going anywhere?

OANST · #23 08-08-2009, 10:01 AM

It's like a Death Row pardon, two minutes too late.

shaman · #24 08-08-2009, 10:51 AM

Or winning the lottery in outer space.

This is an inch away from turning into a singsong...

OANST · #25 08-08-2009, 11:03 AM

It's like playing it safe, and being afraid to fly. Then packing your suitcase, and kissing your kids goodbye. You waited your whole damn life to take this flight, and as the plane crashes down you think "Well, isn't this nice".

It's like being raised by the person who murdered your real parents who you swore to avenge.

I just had a dream about me getting run over by an ambulance. Seriously. +rep for the coincident.

This isn't a joke I actually did have this dream :O.

Leto · #28 08-08-2009, 03:27 PM

This was all a ploy to get +rep I hope you all realise, LOL

And Hobo, I don't understand why you negrep'd me...

***Nate*** · #29 08-08-2009, 09:33 PM

It's like typing out the lyrics to a well-known song that you clearly don't know well enough, seeing as you got the lyrics wrong...

Havoc · #30 08-09-2009, 02:51 AM

It's like... oh fuck it, you all suck.
