Is this forum different without Repping?

I never see the grey letters anyways.

>caring about rep

The only thing I miss about it is that I was able to somewhat show my appreciation for something with it. It was just a quick "hey, thanks" or "that's funny."

QFT
How many times I try to press that + button.

I always wished for a 10+ rep , too bad it was a longshot.

+1
But with adding: Now newfaggots don't seem to get the picture that everybody thinks they are idiots. For some reason, neg reps are the only thing that showed them that

Naw it's not the reps. It's just fakku might be experiencing a Great Depression in the forums that's all. Gonna need a lot of people soon.

Also I think it's happening with the comments section too.

It doesnt seem much different.

I honestly just use the reputation system for randomly giving users a free +Rep in the Say something bout teh user above you V2 thread for no reason. But as for myself I think the reputation system being temporarily gone just makes this place slighty better for a few reason.
But the system itself is a 50/50 in good and bad ways.

Echoing Foreground and Drifter in that I wish I could rep the flash game uploaders (or be repped when I make a LoL pic dump I wanted to make it to 623 dammit) and yeah what Drifter said about newfags not getting the picture.

I feel naked without any reps to embrace!

Newfags can't understand why they're -repped.
There's always a reason, ya knows.

The rep system was an amusing little facet, and are generally a good indicator of the social standing of a user on here. There are some exceptions- but those with higher counts (such as Freaky or Kaimax) are generally those who have contributed much to the community.

People give +reps for things that they find amusing, helpful, if the user has brought up good points in an argument, or just a small mark of appreciation.

People dish out -reps for stupid comments, remarkable displays of ignorance, something they found deeply offensive and/or distasteful.

It was fine the way it was. Abuse of it was rare. Don't know what the hell Jacob was thinking when he wanted to make it so everyone could dish out rep as much as they bolly well pleased.

Doesn't really matter if it comes back or not, but it was fun.

Personally, I think it's better this way because people always like to pick on the new guy O_O.

I never really took notice of it until that one day where I got all the rep because Jacob was dumb.
Thanks Medzy you fucker.

Not really. Only if they go to IB and say something stupid.

I thought it was a bug at first. Then I went on Skype.



[size=1]You know you're awesome Medzy[/h]

Not really but going to miss the influx of neg reps on new users in I.B.

Thanks for your words of wisdom, I will keep in mind that IB is not a place to take lightly.
