What's new

Reputation Comments, positive and negative

arent reps and pms private? so no warnings on them?

Private except unless folks wanna out ya either for good or bad, and no we're not all mods who can give out points, warnings etc.

Look at the announcement: it says you get points for FALSELY listing someone else's name to a neg rep. So if somebody is falsely saying something about you, talking about you giving them a neg rep that you didn't give, maybe you could report it to the mod, and I think actually lying about other posters knowingly and where it can be factually proven false by what's on the record in here, you will be cleared of the charge and the perp will get some points.

Merry Christmas, DutchJazz.

I'm not sure but from what I've noticed, I think negative rep from someone with zero rep power still shows up red but no points are lost. I think grey is positive rep but not worth any points.

And here we are on Christmas day discussing important matters of red and green! How appropriate!

Merry Christmas everyone!

I'd be willing to bet you're mistaken about that. With virtually all of the gray rep I have received, it has been clear from the comments that it is intended to be negative.
 
ooh really?

Yes.

Of course, we would only investigate a rep comment or PM if the person you sent it to complained to the moderators. But that has happened several times now, and several infractions have been issued because of it.

What about signing something heeheepeepeecaca, I>you, your comments really hurt, or another shtick that could easily be attributed to another poster?
 
Franklin, seriously man, who cares. Your post in the Christmas thread was very warm and thoughtful. You should know about the things in life to worry about...this is not one of them.

I guess you're right. I won't be the one pushing the envelope by signing someone else's thing. I'm asking in advance so we don't have a bunch more 48 page Hopperite what the rules threads. Might as well get it out of the way in 2-3 posts.
 
But seriously, seems everyone feels that most of the negative rep they receive is bogus, whether or not it's signed. I'm not sure the same can be said about positive rep though :wink:

Not me. I'm certain I deserve most I get for being a cantankerous ***. There are a few exceptions where a troll isn't up to thinking that day, but for the most part I get legit neg. rep. I like to think most posters here aren't on a crusade.
 
I'm a little fuzzy on this. This was given to me yesterday. Would this be considered a personal attack?

"You're still a complete, tactless jackass."

The funny part is the sender could have been looking in the mirror when it was sent.

Nope, that was to you. Go and report it, tough guy.
 
Two separate reports, both gray (so the senders had no rep to award):

Thread: Don't Ask, Don't Tell...

No comment at all was offered.

Thread: Don't Ask, Don't Tell...
So, you confess in engaging in homosexual activitys. Then you are just gay
Apparently, saying "Not to metion many straight people engage in homosexual activity." was equated to saying I engaged in such activity. Curious.
 
Neutral rep from some hackAtron:

"You are this message board's Forrest Gump except less intelligent."

Hmmm, let's see. I have my own successful business, I'm a multi-millionaire, I can run like the wind, and I am going to bed each night with a hot blonde. I can dig it.

Yes, but you're less intelligent. And she wasn't THAT hot. Plus she probably had AIDS.
 
No doubt, but the thing is, I actually DO hit the sack with a blonde hottie every night. No AIDS.

What is his name?
