    I hate it when the post is already closed so you can't comment.

    Member that started this post thought someone was red repping him. It's just the irony of the whole thing. He was red repping so many people, and then complaining about being red repped!

    I'm reluctant to post this point because there'll undoubtedly be some smart arse who tries it out on me. I'm sure certain members go around giving red rep and leaving the message "Cost of giving red reputation to someone is -1" so as to impersonate the system.

    Yeah, that would be a dick move, but I'm not sure that was the case with this user. Shawn could check that I guess. Shawn said in the thread that the user was the one abusing himself. Forum masochism?

    Do people really give out so much red rep that they wouldn't notice a fake message left by someone saying 'Cost of....'?

    I thought that rep was meant for exceptionally good, or exceptionally bad, posts - not just random clickage?
