Good idea. Otherwise whats going to happen is that the board will get filled up with spam, unintelligent posts etc because nobody wants to red because nobody wants to get a penalty themselves. It's gonna be like: You red rep him, no you, - no you! Etc Notting
Michael_Goldman, Thats fair enough when youve got lots of rep, But if you've not then you are never going to give away rep. Already your repping doesnt caount for as much anyway though. Notting
I like this idea very much, because some people just give others red rep withouth any particular reasons.
The red triangle at the top right beside a post is what should be used to report spam, giving red rep does not in itself do anything to a spammer who only arrives here to try and get sigs or post links - do you really think a spammer cares about red rep Clicking on the red triangle and reporting the spammy posts means they will be flagged to a moderator who can then actual remove the crap if necessary which is a lot more effective against spam than repping,imo.
"I have to look through the Bad grammer to understandable english conversion book everytime you post something." My point too.
Shawn, thank you very very much for implementing this rule! Now maybe people would think twice before spreading red reps and telling friends to do the same (as it has been happening for me). I really appreciated this!
Both are correct, its just British n American English spelling difference, same as you see in grey/gray n color/colour etc. Or even if it isnt, who cares. I fooled ya'
hmm true. but is defintiely not British nor AMerican. has a little smitterin of english, but i can't tell.
All we have to do is call fryman!! He'll red rep any one!!!! He still has a power of around 8 or nine, from post count and how long he's been here!!!
Can i suggest something? If someone is banned, the red repped costs should be returned to who gave it... That way we won't get punished when we red rep a spammer etc etc...
