Yes, I agree that signing a comment you make to others on this forum is following proper forum ettiquette, but that is up to the person making the comment.

I recommend that you don't obsess over it, just move on.

By not only being bugged by it but by also sharing the comments you are receiving, you are just giving more life and energy to this thread.

Let it dissipate, detach and go on with your life.

peace

I would humbly suggest that when one takes the giant leap from boyhood to full blown moderatorship one doesn't automatically morph into a humourless, po faced automaton dear boy.

In fact I would go further and venture that a well developed chuckle muscle is a prerequisite of the job.
Wouldn't you agree?

A personal cheque will be fine Arrows :D

Ah that would explain the half eaten carrot on the bedside table and Mrs Oaf's cheerful demeanour throughout yesterday

Oily Rep Update

pieces of good rep I have bestowed - 5

Pieces of bad rep I have childishly spewed anonymously or otherwise - Zero

You see my friends I am a somewhat singularly odd creature who when confronted by someone who gets right up my nose prefers to use the far more gratifying and ultimately more immediate response of administering a corking right -hander to my tormentor's head area.

I tend to find that the sight of their prone and twitching body laying prostrate before me brings a glow of well being that can last an entire day

(dons dusty pair of ring boots, drops into crouch and delivers ramrod straight jab to solar plexus of cat)

Oh and by the way to my litle gonad bereft friend who has advised me to stop posting ****. Keep 'em coming chuckles won't you.
I showed it to your mum last night and she absolutely loved it!

She was quite taken with your message too. xxxxx

Me too :p :
Although it's never reported correctly ;)

To the person who sent me neutral rep signed 'crap', - I think you made a mistake. It should have been red I'm guessing? You just pressed the wrong button. Feel free to try again although I will be checking you've done it for the same post. Sign it - I dare you :D

Apologies Hazell. 'Twas a typo. Should have read "carp", and it should have green rep, in reference to the delicious seafood dinner that the Mrs. cooked up for tea last night :mark:

OMG I don't remember a thing :eek:
Either I have the memory span of my goldfish or it was those 25 pints of carrot ale she kept in her fridge :s
Sorry Oily it won't happen again. I'll make sure I finish my carrots next time :(
No hard feelings eh ? :)

Well it looks like at least one of the rep people has been rumbled. Funnily enough I've been lead to believe it's someone who posted on this thread trying to cause trouble. If anyone has any problems with constant nonsense rep that they PM Mark and he'll try and deal with it as best he can.

To the person who I'm fairly certain gave me most of this negative rep. You are the biggest two faced little puddle of slime that I've ever met and I hope that your forum friends learn how much of an idiot you've been and make you feel as unwelcome as is humanly possible within the rules of this forum.

Dear person with the inteligence of a haemorroid

I found your rep of http://www.motorsportforums.com/foru...on_balance.gif Rep13th February 2007 11:12 AMhaha, you dont learn do you?

Quite amusing. Considering I haven't actually gone out and made trouble with anyone in my criticism of the way a minority of the people on this forum are using the rep system I fail to see what there is to learn. If you want to give me negative rep every 24 hours that's fine and that's your problem. All I want is for the rep system to function as it does on the other forums I frequent and instead of being a private insult and aggravation service I want it to be a way of people showing support for their fellow forumer or showing people that they're doing the wrong thing. If you've got a problem with that then it's your problem and not my problem. If there's anyone here that's a slow learner it's you. The majority of people who've voted in this thread seem to agree that the rep system is being misused and should go. Now I don't really want that. Mark said that he's going to show the stick to a person who was constantly giving me nuisance rep. So through the complaints of myself and others we may get a rep system which works as it was meant to. Giving negative rep to someone who is the victim of negative rep is hardly doing anything to help solve the problem now is it?

Good day! :)

Out of the top 10 'reps' :\ 8 of them are from North America.?!?!?!? Others in the top 10 are Hazell and Old Hippie(I don't know where they are from)

I mentioned this before but nobody took me seriously. I think North American's are planning to take over the forum, resulting with horrific circumstances for the rest of us. :(

I got negative rep for posting this:

Quote:

This just in! Erin Crocker wins ARCA pole position for Daytona!

I also had a link to the ARCA website results page.

My negative repper noted "Erin is a crock"

You know I would probably agree with him, I don't think Erin's going to be a star racer, but I just posted news, what's up with that? I don't believe rep is functioning how it ought to.

The sad thing is, I only have a spectacular aura, I am no longer a glorious beacon of light! :( :p : :D

I can think of a few candidates for that. There are a couple of people here (not right here now, I hasten to add) who have difficulty with the idea of women racing drivers.
It's probably nothing personal.

Ihave a Crap post or two. Heck, I was getting slagged and I was on the road for 8 days. Man, imagine how much dirt I disturb when Iam here???

As for you Oaf, you are a gentleman in a land of fools...or maybe the chief fool. Havne't worked out which, but glad to have you around....

And the number of people you ignore :p :
16th February 2007, 16:27
Hazell B

Who said .... naw, too predictable :p :

Perhaps a daft question, but if somebody is on your ignore list can you still rep them? I'm thinking in a way other than by posts, like from clicking on a PM or their profile?

I don't use the function for ignoring, but just wondered.

Cowards are bad, but there are things even worse. Double standards are objectionable, but hypocrisy is the worse (corrupt) form of the double standard. Seems this little open forum brings out the very worst characteristics of some people who live pathetic little lives of desperation.

Hey Agwii. Seems there's a button missing on the forum today ;)

All I know is that the moron/s responsible live in the same country as you agwii........
