I forget the final straw as it happened when I was off net for a month or so but after years he was finally banned.

You should rest assured that only your Troll does not see his behaviour as the pathetic utter fool that he is. Even w/o using ignore I don't 'see' his posts, but I do read yours. Enjoy the Forum.

All that tells me is that I need to vie for an admin spot. :banned:

YES. Dare to say anything the neo-con sheep don't like in there and you get blasted by their gang of a dozen with negative points in coordinated effort.

Correct, it can be adjusted. We don't utilize it here as far as forum permissions are concerned because it would require a reset because it would affect a lot of people (due to the political forum) who have plenty of negative rep from disagreements in that forum. Some forums if the rep goes down too much it can cause a ban (several I'm a part). But those tend to be more technical/informational sites where knowledge affects whether or not you're considered someone well-respected enough to listen to.

What will happen if your reputation point is below 5?
How about expired "infraction points"?

thank you for answering my question.

How do you tell if they good or bad rep points?

RYObroncosfan · 10-23-2008, 05:10 PM

I don't think I have any...so 45 is a good start.

Scouse Patriot · 10-23-2008, 06:42 PM

I only have ten, I'm guessing you start with ten

They have these on another board I read (not a memeber though) and they're obsessed with "repping" each other.

*I just tried to rep myself, didn't work

Ian - I'm a little clueless here. How do you check your points? How do you leave points? and do you know who left you points??

Thanks!
