Reputation question...

[slick_]

I keep trying to give reps to the same people.
(Those who I think deserve it)
It always says I have to spread it around.
I'm not trying to rep the same person over and over.

I usually just visit "Funny Pictures".
There are just a handful of posters in that section.

But when I try to give someone reps I always
get the same message.

What can I do?

 

[FAH-Q]

visit more sections? :dunno:

visit more sections? :dunno:

Couldn't have put it better myself.

So I just randomly visit another section and give reps?
Is that how I do it?

Why is there a limit on reps?

Not trying to be a smartass here,
just asking.

if there wasnt a limit, I could rep the same person 1000 times in a row, and it would make rep so pointless, kinda like it is already pointless, but it would be even more

how did freeones even come up with the idea of rep points?

They reckoned that there simply wasn't enough love and fondness on the board..
So along came rep points and now there's a whole lotta lovin' going on. (except for me):helpme:

If it says to spread rep around, then spread it around.

The answers above have been correct. It is a way to prevent people from just repping each other back and forth every day.

...The answers above have been correct....

Does that also mean it is correct that tunsty is in need of some rep? Well, I just repped that gentleman the other day and I'll be damned if I'm gonna do it again. At least right now, because I can't. :o:shy:

Try repping yourself. It's funny!

This whole new rep thing is fucking stupid.

This whole new rep thing is fucking stupid.

So what do you suggest then? Aside from putting it back to how it was, or getting rid of it completely?

What is it that's making you this unhappy about it?

I've been gone for a month, I'm trying to rep my people....3 days I've tried, spending my daily limit each day, and I still can't hit the people I want.
I guess you limited the daily spending amount, but did you shorten the amount of time before you can rep people again, or has that stayed the same?
It's like you're trying to kill the rep system off.
We're not going to be able to rep people with any sort of regular frequency at all. We're having to rep a person days after the initial post. You guys are trying to make rep more special, but we're still going to have to rep random people, just so we can get the power back.

Oppressed so hard this system can not stand
Tell old FreeOnes...
To let My people rep!!

this is what is wrong with the rep system as it is today. 'your people'? so youre saying that you have a group of people that you rep because they are your people?

but we're still going to have to rep random people

why not if they make a nice post? this cliquish bullshit is the reason why the rep system is a headache.


so how does it feel knowing you just admitted to abusing the rep system?

 

[Christmas_Ape]

^^ You say abuse, I say tomato. And so you don't have any of your people. That's your own fault. I can't help you with that one.

Abuse - Schmabooze!

I feel abused when C_A wastes his precious rep on my silly posts.

:sing: Put the blame on Petra, boys! :sing:

i dont need 'my people' on the internet. :hatsoff:

Then why even bring it up? Please, if you're not in the fight, then get out of the way!


:sing: Petra, let My people rep!
