Can I have your shovel? You're digging too deep.
True I did basically tell people not to be whiney over words while I was doing just that. Its only slightly contradictory however. I'm irritated over the topic being discussed. What I was griping at people about was getting so easily offended from the insults tossed at them. There is a difference.

No Its Mine.
And just making a statement does not make it true. You need some supporting evidence. Kind of like one of my favorite proofs:
Girls = time x money
Money = time therefore
Girls = Money Squared
Money = The root of Evil
Money squared = Evil therefore
Girls = Evil
Poorly written but I think it gets the point across.

I keep seeing people saying that rep comments still exist and we can see them. I know they do, but where can I see them? The option to view them has been completely removed from our User CP, at least to the best of my knowledge. Wasn't it?

No for each of your posts you have to click the "rep icon" then it will show you if you have rep for that post and also your total rep. Basicly try to rep your self. I'll leave you rep for this post so you can see, just try to rep your self and you should see the rep i left.

You have to click on the "add Rep" button of each and every recent post you've made until you find the one with the comment.

This way, both good and bad comments are still there, but good ones are rarely seen, and bad ones go both unread and unreported. I'm not a fan of this recent method.
Oh, OK, I see. Cool, Pork Approved! I missed having those
And thank you, Philly, for letting me know. I honestly did not know that. Now I need to go back and check all of my embarrassingly elitist posts to see how many people hate me.

This speaks volumes about players who are complaining about rep comments. In order for you to see these, you literally have to click the rep icon in every post you made. Just think about that for a minute.

Curiosity drives me to find out why.

I actually thought about doing the same, but somewhere between my disregard for reputation and my innate laziness that I seem to be infecting other people with (seriously), I gave up. It's a lot of work just to see (outside of this thread) that someone hates my guts. I will probably check specific controversial posts just to keep on top of things, but if THIS is what bothers people about rep comments... Let's put it this way, you have to go FAR out of your way to see it.

It's not an ideal comparison, but to me, the effort required to actually find these insulting rep comments is somewhere on the order of scanning someone else's e-mail to see if he's not saying bad things about you.

It really isn't much of a comparison at all. XD
I am LOVING this thread.

It's on the same order of effort you have to actively put forward to find the things that are insulting you, though. If someone's writing mean and nasty letters for me and pinning them on his own door, then if I go over just to read them, I kind of lose my ability to complain about it.

When rep comments arrived in your User CP and were always shown to you no matter how many times you collapsed the section, that I could see as problematic. But these things are so hidden now you don't have to just want to see them, you have to GO LOOKING for them. And anyone who goes looking for insulting comments doesn't get to complain when he finds them.

Yes, I suppose if you are making your comparison on the bases of "it takes effort" I can see your point.

I often times compare my effort of getting up to get a glass of water, to the red cross's efforts after the 7.5 magnitude earthquake in haiti to supply its entire population with clean water...
Sure they do. The heck do you think the forums are for?
