Rep reduction

[GodFearinGunTotin]

You know, there for a brief time we had the option to "like" a comment, and in the bottom of the post it would list who "liked" it.
I kinda liked that better than the rep system.

Per usual, I agree with JG.

If we still had that system, I would have "liked" both of them

And I don't like these new smileys.

 

[Stschil]

"Like" is way too Facebook. And Rep/Neg Rep is getting to passe'. INGO should have a system where we can award strips of bacon for posts that we approve of.

So, is it the number of green pips minus 1? Goes for me it appears.

I can give four and I only have two.

 

[DanVoils]

I can give rep but no points. Is this because I have mine turned off? Previously I could give both positive and negative but now the only amount offered is zero.

Completely random

What's the official word on how long to wait before being able to rep somebody anyhow? It's way more than it previously was...(five or 10 people in between, or something?).

The last I heard was Que saying nobody knew what happened and they were all trying to figure it out.

Lol.

Like it it was all some big mystery.

Maybe Fenway changed something and is waiting to see how long it takes the Mods to find it/figure it out/change it?

He may just be a little ornery that way!

We figured it out. Just trying to see if it's going to be fixed, leave it or scrap the entire system.

This is INGO, not SKYNET. The INGO servers have not become self-aware and do not write, compile, and upload their own code. And since it's highly unlikely that somebody hacked INGO just to screw with the rep system, I don't think it took anymore than an email or a phone call or PM to "figure it out." It was done on purpose, by the powers that be. And they made the rep system an even bigger joke than it ever was before which, until it happened, I didn't think was even possible.

I thought about starting a negative rep hit list, just to show my absolute disdain for what the rep system has become, but I'm pretty sure that would result in my being banned.

And so.... how many in-between?

These days it would.

Maybe Dean Wormer is in charge of the rep...

I think one was started, which is partly why the change was made, albeit without the knowledge of the owner. It was an attempt to make the system fair, but nothing in life is absolutely fair. So the neg rep group did help to show the system is meaningless. Now we are just waiting on a decision to go back to the previous system or to junk it altogether.

Guilty, Your Honor.

It didn't go far. Too many people worried about little green blips and the absence of shiny gold badges.

I'm talking about a hit list, not a pyramid. Someone bugs you, post it and everybody neg reps them. Lol.

Although I believe only the more juvenile among us would participate in this new movement, that was not the purpose of the rep system. Everything can't be moderated, so to prevent a member from being punished too harshly, the rep system was changed to head off this group's punishment system. So, now we all know what's gong on.

I vote to scrap it. Yes, I'm aware my vote is meaningless.

 

[JetGirl]

my vote is meaningless.

Ditto, and ditto. Even though I'm probably getting reported for it.

Quite honestly....every post I'm hoping I recieve a notification saying how funny, witty, good point, etc. Right now I'm hoping this does it for me and i get a +0 notification
