Same as the rest of us: trying to avoid being fleeced in the pub/offie/cinema/restaurant.

Oh and obviously trying to avoid -rep too: with threads like his "Drugs...shot" one, this is probably not a worthy pastime...

Thanks for the negative Karma dendenz, you whingebag muppet. I find it funny you'd whinge about annonymous bad rep donations and whine about how you don't care about it, yet you blatantly give me anon bad rep? Nice one!

At least, I'd like to think it's you. In fact, I'm blaming you for any future bad rep I get.

Actually it's the second highest on
google. However vbulletin and reputation gives the no.1 result.

I wonder if there's a group of boardies out there who have got together and give themselves positive rep points at every opportunity?
Like...
Boardsie 1: "You're great, here, have a rep point".
Boardsie 2: "Thanks mate, and your great as well. Here, have a rep point".
Boardsie 1: "Aw, you're too kind. Here have a point"
Boardsie 2: "Wow thanks! It's peeps like you which make this world great, have a point"...
and so on, and on.

btw, I think yer all great. Yes, YOU! You're brilliant!!!

You got bad rep because you posted a pile of shìte.

1. They are judged by your fellow baords posters.
2. Do you see the series of icons at the bottom left of each post? Click the scales, that will allow you to give postitve/negative rep as yous ee fit.

Personally I think this sort of thing should be disabled

1) its extremely nerdy
2) It holds no valuable purpose
3) Its just gonna start a load of stupid whining.

Ya, I saw that. But how about this? You get a few mates together, give them good rep points in turn. That should get around it, surely?
Do this and one could get even more popular than you Azezil.

You're right on all three, but it's fun (well sometimes)!

And then you get someone who gives you a minus Rep point and comment like...

no, but there are a few who think starting another bloody rep thread deserves -rep...

...and then doesn't sign their name to that comment. Yes, there are some people who are taking this Rep stuff all too seriously.

Interesting to see the reaction to the karma point system on vbulletin, I had seen it before on other message boards, but nobody had really been bothered by it (as it was very rarely used). It was only recently that I noticed that anybody had bothered giving me karma points at all, was checking something in my subbed list one night when I saw the karma thing at all. As has been pointed out already in this thread (and probably in at LEAST five other threads on boards too) This is the internet, why are you all taking it so seriously "Oh no I got some bad karma - it's the end of the world!!!" It's just a silly bit of fun people*....

*/me waits to see how much karma - good or bad will come from this post
