Let's say I don't like 1 political side and bad rep every person of that opinion? What if I just don't like a guy and bad Rep him all year.

If a poster and talk CHIT about me in my Rep...don't I have the right to face my accuser? Yeah I know in a great place like America I can but why not at this URL?

All the rep is is a way to flame people anny style or blow smoke up each other's buts in a mutual admiration society.

This is a bunch of crap smoot. Who's idea was this and what is the point? It serves no point other than a way to stir up trouble.

The argument of "it helps people know who to read because of Rep" is just not right.

Well I knew they were reputation points, just didn't know if they were positive or negative. And yes, blue means "negative"

But anyhow, Matty can speak to it better

Re: Reputations
 

It shows you latest reputation like the negative I got from irish for bashing Irish and the positive I also got for bashing Irish by ms

Re: Reputations
 

Mine don't say who is bashing me. That's Wrong. I have the right to face my accuser...well in an American way. Not to say I am due that here.

I say the system is FLAUD

What if I get 5-10 folks to hammer MAttyK at everyone of his post and he has no way of knowing it's just three guys. Heck other don't know it just 3 guys but see 100 Bad Reps?

The ratings without accountrablity....mean nothing and should be deleted

Re: Reputations
 

I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but I get [I]really[/I] depressed for weeks when I get a poor reputation.

At times I wonder, "What will people think of me?". Every word I type I can feel the thousands of trigger happy warpathers constantly judging. And yes... I find solace in the occasional positive remark, but still find it hard to make it throughout the week. Will I ever make it to the pro bowl?

God willing.



But seriously... who really cares. It's reputation points on a football fan site. If it's from a douche... than I would just shrug it off. I'm kind of indifferent on the benefit of the points for the forum vets, but I could see how it might help newbies.

If it's such a waste of time and bandwidth, why have you posted like 5 times about it here? Seems easier to just ignore it.

I don't think it hurts anything, certainly doesn't affect you or me. But it may have an impact on new folks around here.

Re: Reputations
 

I see some of your points SBF, but the rep. system has some value. First, the reputation system encourages people to be thoughtful as it punishes carelessness and stupidity and rewards thoughtfulness. Although there are numerous people who will give others negative points for posts that are thoughtful and positive points for dumb posts, I still think the system's flaws are outweighed by its benefits. Second, the reputation system allows users to see how others view them. Granted, you can already do that when people quote your posts. However, some people would prefer to express their opinions more discretely and the reputation point system affords them an opportunity to do just that. And if a series of rep. points express the same idea (e.g., "You're spelling sucks," or "Nice way of backing up your posts with facts") it's easy to take note of that and adjust your future posts accordingly.

If people don't like what you say and their comments are without merit, simply ignore them. If people have something to say about your posts and their concerns/comments are thoughtful, take note. In short, disregard the dumb comments and take note of the thoughtful ones.

Re: Reputations
 

I agree with your point SBF. If this rep./feedback crap is so important to somebody...I'd like to know who?

Have a vote and see how important it is to the people that use the site. If found it's important lets improve the current system, which IMO is at best flawed. I think we all understand nothing is perfect, but we have alot of room for improvement.

Also, make people accountable for their feedback on another member and if you leave feed good or bad. Let it be known to the member who has left the feed either way.

No need to hide behind a computer, lets put a member user name with the feedback left.

Re: Reputations
 

You gues miss the point
ANNOY people can folks can make commens and not be resposible for their words or actions.
Maybe that's what what the young generation wants but that un American...say whatever you want.

Well, your grammar and poor use of the English language is making me want to give you a negative rep point right now. I'll say that to your face in public.

Perhaps you can explain to me how a negative rep point could be considered "accusation". You don't get punished for negative rep points, you don't get charged with any crimes, you don't get accused of squat. It's not like if you rack up too many, you're automatically going to get banned.

The bottom line is this: in forums such as this, people post opinions to the internet, thereby becoming public domain. As soon as you post your opinion, it is opened to the masses, who can then provide their opinions on what you had to say. If you used poor grammar and came across like sour grapes, then if they don't like sour grapes, they can give their opinion of your post.

It's like this: you post your opinion. If people don't want to hear it and would just assume you shut up, they'll hit you with a negative rep point. All's fair; you said your peace giving your opinion, and they gave their opinion right back.

Re: Reputations
 

The only negative points I've received have been from a Cowboys fan. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Cowboys fans should not have that much power.

Then again, if I'm pissing off the Cowboys fans, then those negative points should be an indicator that I'm doing a good job as a Skins fan. :D

Smooty's right, SBF. I was just making a point: the reputation thing is simply a way for people to express their opinions on the posts which you made available for them all to read.

Don't get all sensitive about me being a jerk or reputations or anything like that. In the end, who cares. Let's just discuss the Skins, or if you want to make me hungry, feel free to describe a kick ass BBQ recipe.

OK, well typing in haste can produce incoherent posts, which can annoy people, and it seems to me it's fair game that if they don't like it, they can say so in a negative rep point. Seems only fair.

Moral of the story is slow down and think before posting. It has nothing to do with your education level, I've seen you post plenty of well-thought out opinions, so I know you're perfectly capable of typing coherently. It's just a matter of cooling off to type carefully before posting.

Let's be clear that calling someone out for "poor grammar" is not a personal attack. Ain't none of us no English majors ('cept for djnemo prolly) but we do strive for proper grammar and spelling here, as much as possible. It makes the site a better experience, and is stated in the guidelines.

It's not like he was attacking you personally, just pointing out the grammar and spelling flaws.
