I'd imagine the proportion of red karma given out has dropped drastically recently or is it just me?

I would imagine that people are more reluctant to give out negative rep because they can't be anonymous anymore....

and the real amount of red karma is just half of what is being given out currently, becuase every one given is almost instantly repaid in kind. Dear Karma postman, please return to sender.

There must be some way of making money out of this rep thing...just like selling Evercrack items...someone hire a dozen Indians or Chinese or something to start giving out rep to each other and sell rep to the highest bidder once they are over 100 points! Just like hard drugs but without the moral dilemma or intravenous injection.

Should mechaimna be brought back to kick around some more

amp wrote:

I'd vote no. Maybe she will find another forum out there that is less brutal to it's members. I think a lot of us should be ashamed for our behaviour, myself especially

What does it look like to potential newbies who want to join the site? Will they run away from this opressive regime? Or will they just read Regi's We like Pie thread and see lots of beaming happy users instead?

Or will they never even read this thread, instead spending all their time ranting about how great the Prodigys new album is on the Dance/Electronica forum?

I don't have the answers to these questions. Do you?

Oh FFS, the "brought back to kick around some more" is a quote from Richard Nixon who in 1962 "quit" politics to the announcement to the gathered press "You won't have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore". I was making a joke.

I'm going back to the politics board. They understand me.

I like good films better than bad politicians. But I'll try harder in the future.

I'd just like to thank transient for that wonderful song. Apart from the fact that he/she has been banned I think that that, and indeed the rest of this megathread, have proven to be excellent reasons for keeping the Reputation system intact. Boards' is a more entertaining place with it.

I'd love one of those fridges. Or the big bastárd American ones but I don't have the room for them.

For having such detailed knowledge of boards despite being a noob?

I was also looking forward to more from them but such is the nature of transience i guess.

Well i found this.....it's called low lie:

1:
In a lengthy feedback thread
I heard a young girl bawling
Mechanima they are bullying you today
For you tried to make Amp see
How he makes the newbies feel
Now another forum is where you'll have your say

Chorus:
Low lie the boards where bullies hide
Picking on the newbies cos they're shy
Red rep instead of kicks, intimidation via clicks
It's so lonely now that mech has said bye-bye.

2:
In a lengthy feedback thread
I heard a young man laughing
Noone likes you Amp when you bully,
Against the admins and the clown
she rebelled they ran her down
Now she must leave the boards for dignity.

Chorus

3:
To a lonely prison thread
I'm banished without warning
Once I posted it I knew the account would die
Sure I'll wait and hope and pray
I'll be allowed back some day
It's so lonely now that mech has said bye-bye.

Chorus

I find it amusing but don't really want to get involved in some vendetta thingie.... :eek:

sharkman

Is this the most viewed thread ever ??

Is there any way of finding out ?

It's certainly got more views than any of the rules have ever had !

simu

Don't know but I'm happy just to have posted in it.
