    Nope, every time I got rep bombed I would rep trade with other lefties and I would bounce back into the green in a day or two.

    Isn't that more due to his sometimes anti Muslim and anti illegal immigrant stance?

    On many issues like national health care Dinner stands alongside the board liberals.

    It's more due to his tendency to get drunk and threaten to stab fellow board members.

    Must have missed that. I thought I was the only one that people got worked up claiming I was threatening violence.

    Huh, I missed that party somehow.
    2013?
    I was here then.
    The thread title looked pretty inflammatory, must have avoided it.
    Or else it was started by someone I had on ignore at the time, so it was cloaked.

    I believe, unless anyone has evidence to the contrary, that it holds the distinction of being the most neg-repped post in WF history.

    Oh, please. He was barely tolerated by the left even before he started with that garbage. Dinner has always been a self righteous, smug little cunt bag. There's even a thread for that :diacanu:

    I liked being able to leave a random :mburtonk: in rep every now and again, but I guess it just doesn't work that way in xenforo like it did in vbulletin. :shrug:

    Pretty sure I got more neg reps for saying it was immoral to commit war crimes even under orders, and even worse to swear an oath that you believed promised you would. You know, one of the light-hearted, fun threads we used to have.

    Precisely. The comments was the one thing that made people communicate more. Everything else about that system had people engage in rep war instead of debating.

    Now that only happens to those posters that have nothing to contribute. I see @CoyoteUgly has negrepped your post completely out of context. That's what used to happen even with valuable members under the old system.

    The rep comments were fun, but the variety of options now is fun too. Six of one, half dozen of the other?

    Even that was dumb because it just discouraged people from posting.
