Thread: User Reputations

Sturdee:

I just looked at my points and somebody disapproved of this post:
(Sadly this link doesn't work so please refer to Sturdee's post #25 on the previous page!!)

Sturdee, isn't it obvious? Joe the Seppo is back!!!

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Sturdee again.

Sorry, I tried to fix the problem....

Hey Biting, I get a recuring fault with that link.

Sorry, obviously a glitch in the works, I don't seem to be able to cut and paste the link: I was referring to Sturdees post #25 on the previous page, so you can to get it from there.

I love it when a plan comes together...not!

User reputations are meant to be a bit of fun and a way for you to show your approval or disapproval of member’s posts.

However some members have taken to disapprove of normal and sensible posts, not only of myself but also of other members on the board. I can understand it if a post is risqué or in bad taste or criticizes someone or is starting a flaming war. But these posts were none of that.

In the past if a specific post upset you, you raised it either publicly by posting or privately by pm and if there was no resolution you could involve the People Whose Reputation Is Beyond Repute (or Board Gods, Demi gods and other High Officebearers ).

Now anyone can hide behind the screen of anonymity and become what I will refer to as DISAPPROVAL REPUTATION NAZI’s :eek: or DRN :eek: for short. In casting their disapproval these DRN :eek: remain faceless and don’t have to give any reasons.

This is IMHO unacceptable and can lead to people refusing to post rather than face disapproval from these DRN :eek: .

What started out as a fun thing is being distorted by the DRN :eek: and if this feature continues then the DRN :eek: of this world should be made to disclose their identity when casting their vote.

No doubt this post will earn me the wrath of all the DRN :eek: and reduce my reputation accordingly.


Peter.

Note to self – vote another negative to Sturdee for whingeing about having a negative vote

( I'd never - in fact I have to spread the loving around before I give it to you again )

For myself I don't care , as I know my own reputation, but I am concerned that this may go the same way as the now put to bed issue of the Spelling Checkers. Others may get upset and start a trail of " I Quit" posts.

Peter, it might be Kens ghost.

Now in the midst of all this frivolity I take your point... gutless (Bugger there goes another blue square-five today!!!!) DRN's :eek: will cause the same sort of grief.

So for me: positives will be anon. Negatives will say why.

It's the new Code of the West!!

I'm so gutless I haven't fired a blueberry yet! It will be interesting indeed to see how things settle down.

Cheers,
