Hello Mods (and everyone else)

[Mr Alex]

When is the ETA on rep being removed from the site?



No I'm serious, serious question.

[FullMetal]

What is ETA...or did I miss something...

You keep trying to get the rep system removed. But the few times that it has been discussed it was dismissed. Stating it like this won't help.

[Mr Alex]

Estimated Time of Arrival.

Its worth a try martin, if it ever happens, doubtful, but....

How about: The 20th of NEVER!!!

I really really doubt that rep will ever be removed. I'm sure plenty of people will post saying why rep is a good thing.

I'll just say three things to everyone: Don't give negative reason for the littlest thing, use the report post button whenever you give negative rep (most of the time), and don't give any rep for unjust reasons.

Edit: Added thing: always say what acronyms stand for (except for AB/TB/DL etc. ).

You know what. I hate this question, and it is not because I like the reputation system (I do, but it is not the reason.) I hate this question because the people who want to get it removed only post something say "THIS SYSTEM SUXXX! I HATE IT!" If that is ALL you can say, stop posting this BS. Tell us why you are continuously complaining about it and maybe we will listen. We always get the people who reply and tell us why the reputation is so awesome and DOES work, and they have good, more than 5 word posts, unlike you. So if you hate something, tell us why, there must be at lease one reason. Saying "When will the rep system be removed" just makes you sound like an idiot.

I am sorry if I was mean, but it seems that only bluntness works.

Agreed with Fullmetal, although I think you could have put that nicer..

I think people complain about the rep system because of the diversity of rep scores. They look around, and see all of these people with higher rep than them, and it makes them feel like their not liked or respected on here. Which isn't tue, but I can understand why they would feel that way.

[Mr Alex]

I see, I thought I had listed multiple reasons on my hatred for this system on my posts, however I have not on this thread.

Fullmetal, your post is the reason I hate this system, If I posted that, directed tword a member of this forum, I am 80% positive I would get neg for it, you however, do not, because you are a mod, respected, your posts are much more intelligently written than mine, and you already have near 40 reputation.

I'm not exactly sure why we need it, I know I will not win this fight, but fighting is better than being a pussy. Anyhow, the good members of our forums are already aparent, you, Martin, Chromos, Darkfinn, Daria, Anyana, Sawaa, and many others. The douche****s like me, are also apparent, by my posts, and by how I am, you could easily tell the difference between me and someone intelligent.

Rep weeds out pedophiles, it most certainly does, but you know what also weeds out pedos, the report post button. I've been told to let mods handle it, and I do, I post a short thought, sit back, and watch what happens.

BTW if you want to contact mods you should use the requests forum... if you intend this for everyone the title doesn't really make sence.

[Mr Alex]

I wanted everyones opinions, not just the mods.
