Sooner or later I'd have repped you anyway but if someone's repping me I always read some posts of this person before I post the rep.
I won't rep a completely moron just for giving me one before.
I think a forum is fun and not all things should be taken that serious.

Even when somebody has pissed me off badly I will allways choose to resolve the issue on an open forum or private message rather than resorting to dirty underhand tactics, giving our negative reps should only be reserved for extreme circumstances as it really achieves nothing other than trying to kick another forum member down. In my opinion I think we should only be allowed to give out positive reps and if we for some reason or another no longer think the forum member is still deserving of the rep we gave them then just simply go back in and delete the rating. That's only my view because personally speaking giving out negative reps to a fellow member can really cause a lot of tension on the forum and all it achieves is making enemys which otherwise could have been avoided
Well as somebody who gave you a neg rep, it was very justifiable which is quite proven by you neg rep back(which just shows what kind of person you are IMO)
If you're happy to receive pos reps then take a neg like a man

"Yes I have over 100 Rep on a Internet Forum!"
"........so what?"
"Nooo, I don't have any Rep!"
"Who cares? What you want me to do? pity you?"

Scrap the whole system. As it is never going to work as you intended.
Just to get this right,you would prefer if the guy that you repped didn't rep you back?
RE: Missing rep - Scottishbloke - 19-01-2012 20:34
Well I see gaz you have 6 negatives against you as opposed to my mere 2
plus the only reason you have a balanced total of 91 is for your capping abilty, nothing else as your abilty on posting opinions is er ropey to say the least

How can someone's ability on posting opinions be ropey? I suppose if they sit on the fence all the time ...
Anyway, he deserves every positive rep he gets purely for his opinion of Hannah Martin

Well lets have a look at your rep. oh look the majority is in return for giving rep (oh and five of my neg reps are from users like yourself who was so hurt by receiving a neg rep, they had to give one back)

I have no negative reps against me.
You want to know why?
It is because I am brilliant. I have taken survey of one on this issue and the result came back that I am brilliant.
I'm upset for you mere mortals battling amongst yourselves about your worth.
Did I mention I'm brilliant.

On my forum, we don't use rep at all, we rely on thanks as a clearer indication of someones contribution to the forum as a whole.
There is a thanks hack here which could do the same, you read a post you like, you thank it, the more thanks you get, the more valuable a forum member you must be.
We have a further refinement where the thanks given and recieved is displayed under the username on posts, like rep currently is, so everyone can see it easier, I don't know if mybb can do that, but it shouldn't be a major effort to write the code if it doesn't exist yet.

RE: Missing rep - Scottishbloke - 19-01-2012 21:04
Very valid point munch, and this now opens up another debate, to thank or not to thank (please nobody start up another thread on that next)
generally speaking the thumb rule is you thank another poster if he has thanked you for your post, out of courtesy more than anything, mind you it can piss you off if you've just constructed what you thought to be a great post and to not get thanked once, whilst somebody else simply post's LOL and a smiley face and get's about 10 thanks. But interesting point on reputation could be based also on the number of thanks you get, much to ponder over. Oh and PS Gaz if I'm such a lousy poster how come I was nominated for 2 awards at the end of last year, with them being, most entertaining poster of the year and best broadcasting writer of the year, so stick that in your pipe and smoke it, how many were you up for, a big fat 0 (unless spammer of the year was one of the catagories) it say's it all
