Why doesn't infraction lead to decreased Rep power?

When neg rep was anonymous, I had one poster, with whom I disagreed regularly, send me neg rep and sign is as another poster, one who had some sort of odd fixation. Had I cared about rep enough to respond over it, it might have started a flame war. Thus, I think signed rep is a good thing.
.
On the general topic, the board has not changed that much since we instituted rep, moved off RealGM, moved on RealGM, etc. Bullies will use rep when it is available, but will find ways to bully when it is not available. I don't see rep making a big difference.

Yeah, Vermin, or Verlin or Box (same person) is the guy who would sign other posters names. If ever there was a ban worthy offense I think that's it.

This is what I've been saying, but as usual, OB said it better.
 
What I meant was, it's too hard for mods to monitor all rep. And no one wants to be a whiny bitch. Therefore, if we all just agree to simply post our neg rep, it will quickly be brought to the mods attn if something is being abused and it can be dealt with. If I owned this site, I'd just say I'll make the rulez up as I go MFers. Be cute, be a douche, whatever .. but if you piss me off, I'll make your rep -1,000,000 .. or ban you, or whatever. Abuse the site and get abused. Don't like it? Behave or leave.

Yes that could work. But wasn't it mentioned here that the mods don't have ANY access to the Neg Rep comments? If that's the case, how can you verify if that Neg Rep is legit? Isn't there a system issue we also have to deal with here?

I don't think the problem is worth the length of the thread .. but to answer your question;

If a case is brought to Jason and/or Colton they have access to look at the rep and verify.

The better solution is for those guys to give me full access to the site. I'll monitor this bitch and stick my foot where it belongs.

Best idea yet.

Yes, that's the way it works.
 
Wow!!! jazzfanz showing it's intelligence. Good hell!!! Fes is the card you want to play!!!! He was a train reck, and is no longer in the league. So not only did he not playing for Sloan, but not any other Coach in the NBA as well. Please tell me which big bench warmer that played under Sloan could actually hack it.

HATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This kind of thing is the reason no one takes anyone serious anymore. Stop taking honest posters & pushing their contributions to the extreme.
 
Just get rid of negging. Negging seems dumb.
This may be the best comment in the thread. Now you are a vocal few so I'm wondering if the majority just doesn't care or think its fine. Sounds like a poll...
