Reputation

[Anime-Prince]

As a Brit myself i find that offensive and racist. But what can i do? But yea thats gotta be one of the stupidest reps ever.

Totally agree with you. I also find that offensive. However it was obviously stated by a complete and utter coward, who must find it hard to stand up to a rainy day never mind any kind of challenge. He/she must have done it for attention.

[SigmaSD]

I have never given a bad rep to anyone, because I think everyone is entitled to their opinions. I do however, give good rep whenever I agree with someone, when I think something is funny, or when someone makes a good argument. I don't think many people care thought.

[Felidire]

I don't think i've been anything-repped yet. lol


..watch 25 people bad-rep this post. xD

[.Gogo]

Ok I am not complaining but don't you get tired of being bad repped for stating your opinion? Please tell.

The person who bad reps you is also stating an opinion though. Their opinion that they don't like your opinion o_O

I always leave my username on reps I give though. I think it's cowardly not to, if you're bad repping someone.

As for myself... I have never recieved a negative reputation =0 And please, don't neg-rep me just because I said that... >_<;

Anyways, I like the reputation system. It's a good way to say hey to a buddy, or to let someone know how you feel about their posts. I also rep people if they have a nice signature and/or av. I think it's a nice to see what people think of you.

I personally love having a rep system. Yes, recieving neg rep is a downfall, especially if it's undeserved [someone making a discrimanatory comment, for example] no, that's not fair at all. But, unfortunately, as with everything in life, the system will not be perfect, and there will be some people who abuse it. =/

[Yuuki Kurosu]

I remember I was bad repped because the person thought my font was too small in a journal entry of mine. .-.
My friend was bad repped because she currently had 6 ( add two more 6's ) hundred posts. They bad repped her saying " Take this you devil! " or something like that. O_o; I am like, wth?

Anyway, they can state their own opinion, but sometimes things get a little too ridiculous.

[Inferno Alchemist]

I'm not the most active person. As my sisters and I share this computer and since I'm the youngest, I never get a chance. So I don't have any neg rep, or many regular reps to begin with. But if someone can't take the opinion of someone online, they will never get far in real life.

[Krista Logan]

Ive gotten bad repped because someone didn't like me anymore. But I don't mind getting the bad reputations I deserve. It's the ones that people don't leave their names, or do it for no reason that get to me.

[Brewmaster]

Well i just wanted to add something.In this Thread BD bad reps me saying it is cowardly not to leave a name.I look in the thread and notice what happened and so i bad rep BD for not checking with an admin who did it and blindly bad reping me for no reason and also post in the thread about it.
Later on i check BD-s rep and i see Jose saying

Undoing the neg rep of two dumb butts-Jose

and now i ask you what is the point of rep if someone just comes in and undoes it for what reason and plus insults?Plus he was not involved in the convo and i can bet he didn't even read any of the posts.
Yes be it being a friend but that would again be rep abusing no?Or am i maybe wrong?I even wouldn't be surprised if a bad rep comes out of this.

[Miss Moonlight]

IMO, the forum should include the usernames of the users who leave reputation by default. Then, there would be no way to leave anon reps (unless they use a spam account, of course.)

People nowadays just neg rep someone for things they don't like that you like, or maybe for stupid reasons like...oh I don't like the colour you like.


Those that don't leave names...well people do have the choice of rather leaving the name or not, but it shows stupidity of not showing because they are scared, isn't that obvious? I always do when I leave neg rep, because there's nothing to be scared about instead of telling them who am I that dislike what they posted.

About doing it for no reason, neg repping someone for no reason is not true, they have the reason. The reason is that they are repping you to test their rep power. Although they didn't leave the reason why neg repping you, there's still a reason, otherwise they wouldn't even do it. People could be random, that's a reason, because that person is being random. I hope this is making some sense. =\

Well just to say i was not the one who bad reped you but now i did since you oh so acted stupidly and not asked a mod or anything but just took a blind guess.I would also not insult or anything since it is not my style.You know you don't need to post in a thread to be able to bad rep.

Sorry for not being on topic.My bad.

I believe BD with all my heart, he has more experience with the system, and always think wisely before doing things. Not staying on topic normally deserves a neg rep.

Well, I know that a lot of people don't like the undoing a neg rep thing. However, the rep that he gives out isn't any news anymore. And nobody is doing anything among that, so we should just ignore it.

[Dragon Ranger]

I only have 1 neg rep for saying Bleach is better than Naruto

[doomboy536]

Rep is clearly proof that the internet is serious business.

[Memento Mori]

That's not quite right. I'm one of those people who "if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all" kinda people.

But giving someone a bad rep with a good reason isn't being mean. It's like being a parent, you tell them what they did wrong. I've seen members who have made terrible posts, and you gave them good rep to 'raise it back up'.

No.

You do not do that. You give out good rep for good posts that were not meant to flame anyone and they defended their opinion with facts. You're simply abusing the system, and that's obvious, because you have 1k rep within 774 posts.

I must admit, back in my early days, I did abuse the system myself, that's why my rep is so high, but I've learned from my mistakes and learned that abusing the system is bad.

Anyway, all these people are saying that they don't care for bad rep, well I don't totally linger on it for a long time, but for a few seconds, I do care if the rep is for absolutely no reason, or they had a reason, but simply harrassed me and didn't leave their name.

demonplight or whatever is name is is a good example of someone who abuses bad rep. In his signature, it says 'When one bad reps, its a common curtsy to leave one's name. So one can return the favor, in kind. [stupid smiley]'

You do not bad rep someone for bad repping you. You bad rep for saying something stupid in a thread, flaming, spamming, advertising, etc., etc.

[Lil' Blue]

no because on AF is the only time my opinion makes a difference.lol

[Brewmaster]

Well first he was the first one staying off topic and second he bad reped me for thinking i bad reped him.If you didn't read what i posted.I only bad reped him because he did not act in the right way.Which i did not aprove.
Also it is not hard to know about the system if you read the rules.

Indeed that is true unfortunately. :S

[Kariya The Wind]

Why would someone leave their name only to be negged back?

[-akichan-]

Why would someone leave their name only to be negged back?

Yes, I once thought of that problem before. But what I know right now while I'm sitting here in front of this computer, I know for sure that leaving a name is an image of my courage if I do leave a name, I just can't get over myself if I don't do so because I never want to show that I'm scared of getting repped back. Why scared of getting neg rep back, nothing to be scared about unless you really care about your points. Although I did get a few neg back before but didn't affect me much after I negged them. So I always do leave my name, leaving a name on positive rep and not leaving a name on neg rep is tototally idiotic.

Indeed that is true unfortunately. :S

I know you love me really <3 =3
I admit I blindly repped you but to be honest you were one of the few logical choices to make and since I believe it wasn't you now I do apologize. However I was staying on topic, which is about the Patch and I gave my opinion on it and all the posts by myself and Sanosuke were in reference to the said Patch.

I believe BD with all my heart, he has more experience with the system, and always think wisely before doing things. Not staying on topic normally deserves a neg rep.

That's why you have always been one of my close friends for years <333 You know me well luv luv =3

And my take on Rep, if you are going to rep leave your name be it good or bad and don't make it spiteful comments. Say clearly why in a polite maner.

[wowzabunny]

I dont care about Rep
I like giving away positive rep though

[Inn@ni>]

Sorry, but I am always getting bad rep on forums. Maybe that will change on this forum. So please people, dont say nothing about my granny. I hate her.

[Miss Moonlight]

Also, please be aware that we (the staff) are not going to tell you who left you reputation, be it good or bad. If the person leaves their name, good for them!

Really? a few times, Kaitou Ace was kind enough to do just that. But I only asked once.

Either way, I haven't given a neg rep since 06.

That's exactly what I've been saying too, and seems like most of the people don't get that message. I mean...I don't care about points, really. What gets me the most is the people and what they say. If people neg rep me, go head, but I would like to know why without any spiteful comments like "you suck" why do I suck, give a reason. Or those like "British aren't cute, all they have is the stupid accents" Pshhh that's a reason but why hating me for saying things I like is what get me the most.

[Jimbow]

I hardly ever hand out good or bad rep.
I do get some rep sometimes (mostly good :P). I don't like it when ppl rep without their name, it's so annoying ><

[Acnologia]

Recently, I've been getting lots of negs. It seems people neg me for anything. That's what discourages me.
I don't mind a neg, but if you look at them, they are insulting (at least to me) I don't know why people insist on trying to ruin my experience here. I don't try to hurt anyones feelings or anything of that nature. But this is getting to be too much.

[boo radley]

I got neg repped because of my screenname once and I thought that was funny. I've also been neg repped because of jokes I've said that I guess don't translate well onto the internet.
