I'm Turning My Rep Off

*bounces up and down* LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!

Now that we got that out of the way...

I'm Turning My Rep Off. Why would I do that when I'm "#1" in the "rankings"? A couple reasons:

  1. I should not be #1. Hell, I shouldn't be in the top ten if you ask me.
  2. ????
  3. PROFIT!
  4. I should not be #1.
  5. No player is above or below any other, to be honest, this game and these boards are a hobby, and as soon as you try to put in any sort of "class" or ranking system to place some above others, it disrupts the COMMUNITY. We are here by our choice, to have FUN. In MY not so humble opinion, once you're "competing" against others, it's no longer fun. This is why I don't PvP. I'd rather work WITH people than against them.
  6. I should not be #1.
  7. Steelclaw's lists are WAY more entertaining.
  8. Now my hero Dark_Respite (or as I call her, Samuraiko Female Samurai) is #1 as I think she should be.
  9. UniqueDragon is now #2, as he should be.
  10. I should not be #1.
  11. I've already seen "add to my rep" threads, and I think that's just sad. Anytime you create a "system", there will be people trying to "game" the system. Rep is only valid if it's EARNED. I think the existence of these threads and people actively requesting others to rate them up is LAME.
  12. The rep meter is just yet another griefing tool. That is, a method for griefing which TOOLS use.
  13. Steelclaw is now #3, as he should be.
  14. Hey, it's the first time in my life I can say I've ever gone out on TOP of something! That'll never happen again!
  15. Long pointless list is too long and too pointless.
  16. LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!
I would still appreciate all of your comments in my reputation, they've been very entertaining and enlightening so far, and I love them, even the nasty ones. Thank you.

Why do we need comments when people give us bad rep?

Seriously, WHY? I want to know.
I would rather read comments from nice people who gimme good rep.

It's to make it less easy to bomb someone with negative reputation. This is not uncommon in other venues that are online and give you the ability to rate a person or thing.

I got bad rep without a comment I would have loved to have read the comment. Where's the fun in having pissed people off if you don't even know why?

Truth. I just hate Rep good or bad, without comments. I like to know the WHYs of everything. Really pissed my mom off when I was a kid, I was that one kid that would question everything. She was probably crying at my H.S. graduation because she knew I'd be going off to college and wouldn't be around to ask so many damned questions.

Whoa, I didn't even know this new-fangled reputation thing existed...


Doom.

Yep.

This is really doom.

You're just extremely thin skinned P_P. I mean like paper thin. Like wafer thin. Like if I put a piece of your skin on someone's tongue it would MELT thin.

Here are some of mine, I will share with you

The posting equivalent of those random-word-generator E-mail headings you get on Viagra ads. I've never seen PP post anything worth the effort to decipher.

I just stopped in for a laugh and you fail...badly

Your posts on CO are horrible

your post's are not good.

stop bragging

wish you would stop

You just brought it to a whole creep-tacular level. PP's skin on someone's tongue? What... the... eff...

I have never understood the "cool factor" in being mean to other people.
I am not as thin skinned as you think.

Whoever added the tag "pk wants attention" and added to my rep the comment "Kinda being an attention w***e?" all I have to say is this....


.... obvious truth is obvious. I mean, DUH.

if you don't think you should be #1 then just be a jerk all the time
it seems like an easy problem to fix

half of me wants to channel the spirit of the free market and argue that competition for rep rank is, in fact, good for the community, but i really don't have the patience

I think there should be a sticky thread full of the people who give bad rep out
And all the stupid things they say

But I AM a complete jerk to people all the time, AND a smart *** to them all the time, yet they kept voting for me. They just keep on loving me no matter how I treat them.

I'm like Bill Clinton or something.

Hell, even my signature image is me being a jerk and a smart ***.

I don't think you are a jerk.
I would so tell you if you were too.

And yet at the end of the day, you are significantly net positive in rep.

As for PK.

I'll just go with Riiiiiight which is what letter, I forget.

oh and I do agree strongly with your #1 and #4

:P

And thats why. You are always You. Just like Dark_Respite, Steelclaw, (the legendary) Unique dragon, and several others around here, we know what we're going to get from one of your posts.
Snarky? sometimes. A jerk? Sometimes. Profound? Sometimes. But it's always you.
Thats what a reputation means, we have a pretty good idea who you are. And, in general, it seems the community approves.

I also dont think he knows what being a jerk is.
However, I much prefer someone to be amiable, to someone being an ***hat.

There is rep rankings? Can you see comments people leave you? I don't get it.
