Rep is gone!

seamus

They all said it wouldn't be done.....they were wrong!

RuggieBear

oh well...i had grown quite fond of my little green dots....

WizZard

Just noticed too. Damn I thought I'd be the first!

Trojan

I'm saving neg rep for you for starting a rep thread. That is all.

well at least it means you can't be neg repped for starting another rep thread

mr_angry

It wasn't really that accurate, considering the Karma cliques that existed. Kinda defeated the purpose.

woosaysdan

monkeyfudge

Just as I was starting to get the hang of it too...

I was so close to 5 apples... sob...

ecksor

woosaysdan banned for shaking his fists at us.

mr_angry

So many sigs, suddenly pointless...

Hobart

I'm currently running a book on the time of the first "Bring back Rep" thread. Anyone care for odds?

Johnny_the_fox

its a sad sad day for boards.ie... just when peace is near in the north.

i would like to thank all for the good reps and bad reps.

i enjoyed reading your comments about my posts.

Amz

Yay!

Jim

...and there was much rejoicing.

[edit]hmm..i look slighly naked[/edit]

This post has been deleted.

pickarooney

More worrying is the number of people posting while apparently logged off...

Kêrmêttê

My 2 ikkle greeny dots are gone! I feel so insignificant! :eek:
[/sarcasm]

Winters

I feel naked.... I wish it could return.

enterprise

REPS should be brought back!

Saying this, being a relatively newbie to boards I had nearly 100 points. However got into an argument with two established players who both gave me neg reps which sent my total plummeting! However I did like to see the comments good and bad about my posts. Any chance of reinstating it? If not the reps at least the comment section?

smoke.me.a.kipper

i won the game! 4105 points at the end. its gone now tho. w00t!!!

seamus

I started this thread safe in the knowledge that I could not immediately incur neg rep for it.

I can't wait to ban some idiots for posting "Bring back rep!" threads on After Hours.

/me salivates....

simu

My user CP is so forlorn and empty... :eek:

Oh well, rep was getting boring anyway.

woosaysdan

theres one here already!!!:)

loz_the_boz

rep gone, so what !

Was of no use to normal people.

i like the idea of private instant comments on posts....even without the rep....

It's always nice to get a good word, a lol and the like.

woosaysdan

oh well since i was doing soo well spamming the rep system, i think ill just spam the threads instead to get my post count higher instead!!! :sigh:

Giblet

I came 4th in rep with 3800!

You can all thank me for killing the rep system.

I'll take 100 notes at any reasonable odds that there already is one. Oh look, there it is. Proving once and for all, conclusively that the admins have NO FOOKING CHANCE WHATSOEVER of keeping everyone happy and validating our "FOOK THE LOT OF YE" approach.

woosaysdan

i was 7th with 3437 points!!! or there abouts!!!

WizZard

I was aiming for the magic 31337 number!

The_Conductor

Hmmm- it did have its uses, but was a much abused resource. Did anyone get an automatic banning from being neg repped by people? I seem to remember one individual with 6 red bottles to their name (haven't seen them around in a while....)

All-in-all it detracted from the substance of threads- people delibertly pleading for rep in postings and signatures...... back to business as usual again!

jesus_thats_gre

Ahh the cry babys won out in the end..

PH01

Darn! i was this close to the top 20. BooHoo is all I can say!

kaimera

gah..there i was thinking cloud had modded the 'minimalist' skin to not show rep.

Now that post deserves some rep

Honestly, I'll miss the rep system, I liked the feedback element to it.

woosaysdan

the place doesnt feel the same though!!! its like giving a kid a toy and taking it away from him again!!!

I was 2 points shy of the nice round 2000. Oh well. I thought losing my job was bad but this... this is the real heart breaker! Sigh...

koneko

It's okay ixoy, I'll make you feel better with some nice green rep... oh wait!

Praetorian

I'm kind of happy that the rep system is gone for the most part, then again I'm kind of annoyed that all the sad bastards with 1 red dot have won a small moral victory, not to mention the people that kept posting about negative rep.

Maybe someday we'll see a more comprehensive karma system integrated into boards.ie!

BuffyBot

Not sorry to see it gone, tbh

Evil Phil

Karma systems just don't work. I predict a new and improved rep system will rear its ugly head in 2008 and will be binned just like this and the last time.

anyway \o/

That didn't take long. Although banning a regular isn't as much fun as banning a muppet.

Boro

The amount of people I'd never heard of on these boards strutting around with like... 8 green things was truly shocking.
