Rep Inflation

Here is something that would be cool. If you click on the little star on one of your own posts you see the rep you got for that post. I would like it to show the rep other people got for their posts when you click on it to rep them. So I click on the star for trout to posrep and see that 4 people already negrepped that post (probably the norm for trout). Would be interesting.

Anytime I make a thread about, or post in a thread regarding C.J. Miles, the neggers come out in force.
 
It would also be interesting to be able to give partial rep. For example, I like the tone of this post, but it also hurt me deeply.

+8 out of 9

yeah, I agree. That was such a big disappointment for me. I finally achieved a rep level of 2 and tried to give a partial rep - and the system wouldn't allow it.
Bummer.

but that's OK, I've learned to deal.

You are an amazingly flexible person.
Do you do yoga?
 
Only Trout hit me with negative rep after I asked for it nicely? I love that guy. I need some more though, neg reps only pack half the punch.
 
I just can't do it with that picture of the Queen staring at me.
I would feel too guilty.

Does't she do a great job with those distinctive outfits. . . . you just know it's true class. Understated dignity that compels respect from all. For a while I was wondering if on some off chance, "Duck" might really be the Queen taking a break from all that tidy propriety and mingling with the commoners incognito.

Now here's a true Brit-style understatement:

Although there are scores of trumped-up legends in my family intended to subtly plant the seeds of belief that we are indeed a lost branch of the Davidic royalty, it has been my sad experience to see that indeed we share many of the same proclivities towards unduly impacting the world in truely meritless ways.

But I bet if the Queen invited me to dinner I'd find something nice to say. . . . .

I find it sort of like a 1rst grade crush. He only neg reps me cause he loves me.

Nope. I started neg repping you when I found out that you gave me a neg rep and signed it with Kicky's name. Oh, and you did that within a week of making a thread about "cowards" not signing their neg reps. I didn't even know who you were at the time, guy. Honestly though, I'm over it. There are bigger things in life than purposely trying to be a bur under the saddle of some dude online. OK, I love you, bye.
 
There are some *** holes on this board. But there are a lot of good dewds, too. You gt2 remember the old JF, when there was no rep ****. That some old-skewl **** for yo' ***, *****.

Channeling his inner Ainthopper.
 
So let's get this reply straight. . . . you're actually saying you're deliberately playing mind games with us on this whole rep thing????

as an exercise in achieving a sort of statistical nirvana with two bumps instead of just one?

you're the MAN, dude!!!!!!!!!!

No, I just like teasing kicky about his "bimodal distribution" line as frequently as I can. Sorry to disappoint.
 
I like the idea of a simple sliding scale. It goes up a little faster at first, taking more and more points to climb as your rep goes up. It shouldn't take you too long to get from 1 to 4, but it should take a bunch to get from 10 to 12. I like the current tweak though. Can you tell us what the inner workings of the system is? Is it simply point thresholds for each rep power level or what?




Oh yeah got this negrep on this thread.

You have too much rep
