(something here)+Rep(something here)

(somthing here): commonly the following:
LAWL
LOL
THANKS
:)
Any emocon
YA
YES!
Hippos..I made this one up.
---------------------------------------------------


Come on gents and ladies, it is a anonymous, individual process not an invite for everyone to suddenly drop rock into the green bar of wonder! You don't tell people you just gave can goods to the poor do you?!




Is there anyone out there is PSX-land than can see this too? All I need is one to confirm...only one.

LOL Sarcasms! -/+ Rep...!

[VonGak]

-Rep for that utterly silly post :P

[masteratt]

Would have been a great post but I disagree with your observation.
I saw that happen maybe twice and I read almost every thread here.

One thing I hate about this place is that sometimes people ignore logic to take personal stabs at someone else or take a stab at X360 or MS or whatever or praise PS3/ Sony.

But other than that, pretty good place.

Oh yeah and people repeating each other, that drives me madder than it should.

Would have been a great post but I disagree with your observation.

lol...I have an entire rep box full of counter evidence. :)

[masteratt]

Post away, I'm curious now.

[=NukeBlaze=]

Well, I think I will make a list of the GUILTY! instead and edit my first post. brb ;)

[frosty]

lollerz +rep ;)


good point though.

Cool I'm a guilty party....for what again? http://www.bbvforums.org/forums/clipart/WTF.gif

[VonGak]

For God's sake guys, please give =NukeBlaze= a break and quit reping him all the time.

The guy it feed up to here with those green bars.

:asshole: And I got an eye on you guys who try to brighten up the mood around here with reps! You know who you are.

[=NukeBlaze=]

^ It is not the act of giving rep that is the issue. Read again and find out what the issue of the topic is. :p

[VG Aficionado]

It is a symbol of friendly acknowledgement, what's wrong with that? :cry2:

[=NukeBlaze=]

^ unclean! ;)

Again I say, the act of rep is not the issue, read above to find what is. I swear to you it is there. :p

[section]

Originally I contributed, actually contributed to this forum with posts I thought could help build up a community. Got rep from about 7 different people.

Now I'm not a repwhore but seeing how people get rep for saying "tits up" these days I find it both amusing and sad. Lost my "faith" to these forums some 8 months ago.

Maybe it was the illusion and speculation of incoming wonders which kept PSINext forums alive, there was TONS of tech talk, you could actually learn something new and useful every week. Now it's mostly bickering and sour milk, few bright spots here and there and then again another defense against the attacks of the ever trumping troll army.

[Rip3001]

Stopped reading after !

The only thing I seem to get out of your post is that we shouldn't reveal it when we give +rep to someone, for whatever reason no matter how stupid, immature, pointlessly funny or simply well deserved it could be. I understand that we don't act the same way when we are not virtually interacting with friends we made on teh interwebs in equivalent situations (or maybe yes!), but then again, I find it to be a mild quirk characteristic of forum-posting, which doesn't necessarily have to be a mirror of our real life social interaction in terms of method.

Either that, or I still don't get it :dur:

[Fillibuster]

Hmm, I see the err of my ways NukeBlaze. I don't know that it is a huge deal, but I liked your first post.

[VonGak]

^ It is not the act of giving rep that is the issue. Read again and find out what the issue of the topic is. :p

So it's not about writing +Rep?

[=NukeBlaze=]

Almost there, just need a turn-about of pi.

Aye, but it is sending a spoon where a fork should tread. Related , but misused related to intended purpose.

[woundingchaney]

Ok I honestly have no idea what is going on here. I take it the op wants us to view the links and find some commonality in a behaivior at this site??

Yes, the OP, the outsider person...hisss! Venom from the snake...Kill the infidel...Gooble goobble, one of use...one of.... :)

Me thinks you have some glimmering idea. The links are for the lost, you may use them if you find you need them. Doing a search, you may find it strange that the madhouse and PS3 peak relative to the rest when querying +rep. :P


----------------------------------------------------------------

It seem there are some here that find it difficult to laugh at themselves.:laugh:

See? The small rolling ball is laughing, probably at itself since it may be suffering from jondus, and a corporate astigmatism it carries.

------------------------------------------------------------------

It seems a task has become clear, You must all get back to being able at to laugh at yourselves again.

[BruceWayneIII]

Well, it seems he doesn't like to see us stating - in our post - who we +rep.
If I didn't see posts like this - I wouldn't even know what it was, when I joined.

The number one motivator - in business as well as in private - is personal recognition. I get +reps for finding news and uploading HD movies and I give them for the same reason.

He thinks the +rep should be a personal and private matter and not a part of a public post.

I disagree - keeping it visible shows other people what kind of behaviour and effort is appreciated and that is a powerful way of keeping this forum in such a good shape!

Aye, but it is sending a spoon where a fork should tread. Related , but misused related to intended purpose.


But the new and compounded issue is laughter.

[BruceWayneIII]

^ read my post again - I edited the last sentence.

It is NOT enough to tell a good poster, that he did good, if you don't show the other people, what you want.

Another thing: there is no automatic notification that you got a +rep. Fix that and it might be different.

[=NukeBlaze=]

Still works. :P

There are many other ways to do that, but there is meaning in the symbolism.

What the **** is going on?

[=NukeBlaze=]

What the **** is going on?

Progress! Ha-ha!

[Smokey]

What the **** is going on?

ya what is this thread about?

[BruceWayneIII]

Whatever...

[=NukeBlaze=]

Whatever...

Still do not see it? Well, I will leave it up if you wish to make another run at it. :)


ya what is this thread about?

It is about what is written, which is commonly found to be a trait of most of them. Unlike the madhouse, which erratically diverges, most in other section stay topic coherent, as of which this is still to the original. :P

[masteratt]

Its about contribution guys, or lack of to be more exact.

Read the thread (don't just look at it) and it's easy to figure out what's going on.

Point taken NukeBlaze, I must have become immune to them :p

[BruceWayneIII]

Still not sure exactly what it's about. I'm mentioned in NukeBlaze's list for my signature. However, I actually do feel I contribute. Most importantly: read my signature again - smell the sarcasm?

[Kensaki]

Yeah its true these forums could use less spammy posts that add nothing to the thread. Looking at +rep posts ad infinitum get quesy after a while

[=NukeBlaze=]

However, I actually do feel I contribute. Most importantly: read my signature again - smell the sarcasm?

Although it is is list of ...DOOM! ...It is not eternally damming...Just most of it! :)

I just complied a list of +reps from some threads to prove, by number, it was being done. I am sure they love you just the same, even..with your...horrible...mutated...disfigured...posting issues! ;) Besides, can;t you smell the sarcasm in "BruceWayneIII's signature..You cad!" ?

[GTAce]

GTAace


Who is this?
Never saw a "GTAace" here on the forum. :look:

Lol this thread is so "wtf?" but funny lol.
But i think youre right in some ways but..... i dont think its THAT worse lol.

[=NukeBlaze=]

Not too shabby. I only got one positive rep and one negative rep from this thread, and no one said a word that they were doing it. Quite good thus far. ;)

I think there is hope.

I think there is hope.You are aware that I could crush your hopes with a handful of mouse clicks and a couple words, aren't you?

:evillaugh

[Sephiroth_VII]

Lol! Great thread, NukeBlaze!

+REP

[curryking1]

Ok...

So you don't like the rep system, ok. Just try not to use it lol, I like giving people rep when they mention some cool stuff or share cool stuff with the rest of the board, that's just me though lol.

I don't care much for the numbers, I just like to dish out the response when people provide us with cool stuff.

[VG Aficionado]

I just remembered that I +repped someone today and I accidentally wrote ":9" instead of ": )". Just to make it clear :-p

[jaxmkii]

ok reading this was a waste....

[BruceWayneIII]

even..with your...horrible...mutated...disfigured...posting issues! ;)

:lol: I have absolutely know idea what you mean by that. Who said posting issues :P
