    So, RickyDicky is lambasted for being a "rep whiner", yet the whole drama over the pip reset has shown up the "rep warriors" as rep whiners themselves.

    What is it about rep that makes some posters feel tough? Persons such as Sokar, Uncle Albert and so on spring to mind, they seem to do it as if it's a sign of machismo. Yet this is the internet and rep has what effect? No effect whatsoever. So what's the deal? You don't see the more loathed posters on here being "rep warriors", when you'd think they'd be the most likely candidates.

    So, what is it about rep that makes some people think they are in some way powerful? It's a starnge thing.

    Should maybe the whole thing be scrapped and we just go back to having discussions?

    I'm trying to decide what to have for lunch today. Kind of sick of Subway.

    Any suggestions?

    I went kind of light yesterday and was feeling it by dinner time. Definitely going to get something more substantial. Not sure what yet, though.

    I'm trying to go low carb/low fat for the next month.

    Maybe I'll just go for one of the two and get a bucket of KFC.

    Oh I see Uncle Albert gave you a neg rep in the other thread and now rep is important to you too.

    That explains why you brought his name up here in a thread about rep started by you.....

    I'm also one of the most frequent posters. Can your magical ratfuck lawyer powers concoct some appearance of guilt in that, too?

    Dude, I've had countless neg reps, do you think one is enough to make me start a thread over it? :lol:

    Reason I started the thread is that I have put forth a suggestion to buy the board off of Lanz...and so I wondered why rep is such a big deal to people.

    Guilt? No. Of course not.

    In fairness to UA, he usually uses the feature to actually express agreement or disagreement in the course of a discussion. He doesn't dig up old posts and negrep 50 of them at a time, so it's hardly fair to lump him in with the retards who do.

    Oh yeah! I love KFC but the closest one closed down. Deservedly so, though. They couldn't get it together and were ruining the whole thing for me.

    I very rarely neg. I find it more useful and mature to just post a response. :shrug:

    There's no neg to disagree with the way this was handled yet not hurt anyone's feelings. I'm at a loss as to how to proceed. I want to say you shouldn't have agreed so, at its basis, I disagree but there's too much negativity in the world and I really don't want to hurt your feelings. On the other hand, if I posrep you, someone will think I'm on your posse and that would make me some kind of niggercunt lover or something. You never really know how they're going to mischaracterize your statements.
