Born and raised :D
Moved to Calgary in '01, but no matter where I live my allegiance will always be with the red, white 'n blue :D

Welcome back Tin :D

The REP feature has turned the forum into a complete farce. There is a thread in Chit-Chat about the hanging of Saddam. There are a group of pro-Saddam fascists who post negative reputation for every message that does not support their pro-Saddam position. Mark in Oshawa had his reputation dropped to below negative two-thousand. The same thing is happening to me, over and over. Helen B restored my REP score to about 100, and today, thanks to the supporters of Saddam, it's below negative three-hundred.

That said, the REP is so far meaningless. But this is not the way a friendly forum should be run, and I ask Mark the Admin to shut down the REP system entirely.

Yes, I was also surprised to see Mark in the red a few days ago. He seems now to be thoroughly in the green, though.

And given that you're thoroughly in the red, I'd say that the rep system has produced just the right results for the two of you. :\ So maybe it's not so bad after all.

I agree. It's the way I've been feeling about rule changes since 98.

Thanks! :)

To be honest, I've always found your sig very annoying, Tin. :p : Shouldn't it be "Stupid rules => stupid consequences"? ;) :)

In the wee hours of Thursday morning, I've become the firts member to break the -10,000 rep points barrier.

You are so right. It's done now :D

:up: :D

what i dont understand is the comments on my bad rep for

"anti american comments" where i simply stated i dislike certain things in the room 101 thread..and other people have also stated similiar if not worse things in that thread

and

"ill-informed and non factual rant" for a post that i copied/pasted from another forum about the uk road pricing, in which the petition link got removed.

I dont particularly care about the rep, but when people make comments like that when they aren't true, it makes me wonder about some people in this world.

Best leave this thing OFF...permantly.

:)
