    So I understand why the 12 people who share the rep with each other love the buttfucking system, and I'm going to get negrepped by like 20 people for this post, but explain how this is actually working? And by working I mean the handful of flames posters who just rep each other and nobody else for mediocre posting; and negrepping for the sake of it or for being flamed in flames.

    Why don't you grow the fuck up? This forum is called "Suggestions", not "Bitch and moan about how everyone hates you because you have the posting ability of a retarded goat".

    If you have a problem, PM it...otherwise, expect to be called a pussy and a crybaby...because you're being both at the moment.
    I hear the voices inside my head. They counsel me. They understand. They talk to me.

    As much as you're right, this kind of post is not what this forum is for either.

    I'm closing this thread. There is nothing wrong with the rep system as used in Flames. If anyone has any problems with the system, open a new thread and try to put a bit more thought into it than this.

    Absolution, start getting the message that people don't like your posts or just shut the fuck up and stop whining because nobody here has sympathy for injuries which are self-inflicted.

    well, i can't say with any empirical evidence that it is working, but i know that it's encouraged ME to put more effort into my posts (even -- nay, especially in flames) and dissuaded me from making a few useless, overly aggressive or thoughtless posts. i believe it is having that effect on the general population of the website.

    of course there's only going to be a few people who rep a lot, and even fewer WITH high levels of rep, because there are only a handful or regular posters here to begin with. but the selection of people i give rep to is fairly wide, and so is the selection of posters who give me rep (positive or negative), and when people complain about their rep and need me to check up on it, what reveals itself to me is that a wide selection of people repping those people.

    once again, nobody is neg-repping you "for the sake of it". they are adding to your negative reputation because they don't like your posting.

    I doubt anyone who negreps with the comment 'red' is really doing it just for kicks. It's probably more likely that they think you deserve to be in the red.
