Negative rep

[Alex0paul]

Is it possible to get enough bad rep to get into minus reputation points?

[PaulTheSoave]

i got a negative rep for a comment I made on Eireen Williams:

"Its not easy for a respot, but I have been to some tournees and he really makes a shambles of it. Sorry. If you dont know, ask for the video, but he did not."

Must have been his missus.

ps. After the match Williams appeared in the pub "The Graduate" and he still looked very stressed. REP me again!

I think so. Our friend Dingshot is last or thereabouts in the list of members by Rep so i guess he could well be on minus points. That would not be too surprisng as he did seem to be public enemy number 1 on here, during the 10 months that ive been a member here anyway.

More surprisingly, Rocketbabe is also very near the end. That maybe why she does not post here anymore. The Ronnie bashers must have been a bit too hostile for her.

Dont know who that Phired person was right at the bottom - he/she was before my time. But he/she must have upset a lot of people with just 38 posts.

Where can we view this list of reps?

I am guessing that you need 50 reputation points to 'become famous'?

Thanks a lot!

I have a a couple of questions about the "rep power": How does this work? Does it have something to do with rep points in total weighed against positive/negative reps or something? And what's it good for?

[snookersfun]

rep power is pretty much explained here:
http://www.thesnookerforum.com/showp...9&postcount=10

basically it will be at 1 after 50 posts, go up +1 after 1000 posts and/or 1 year membership. And the rep power determines how much your repping counts for (+/- that amount)

Ah, now I see. Cheers!

I have now got a positive rep for it! Thanks!

i got a negative rep for a comment I made on Eireen Williams:

After reading some of the commments like if someone does not like what I say then they should just say it, well doesn't this also go for posative rep too!! if someone likes what you say they should just say it and not give you rep.

On this conclusion you are all saying that the reputation feature is null and void as you cant have one rule for one thing and another rule for another.

The reputation I have found to be invaluble on another forum that I run, when someone make a negative post or starts a argument we give that poster negative rep, if a poster make a good article or says somehting we all like we give them posative rep.

We have a hidden section on the website and only if you have over 100 + rep you can see it. In this section is all of the interesting conversations.

Seems to me like you get a negative rep when you express your opinion, i have two and im a new member, not very inviting for new members, all i said was it was a shame ronnie wasnt in the final which i stand by saying, the other thing i said was that i hated shaun murphy, which might have been a bit harsh but im allowed an opinion....put me off visiting this site

Just a thought but, I am a member of another forum and, on there when you give rep, or bad rep, it shows your user name. When one gets bad rep on here, you are left wondering what on earth it was for!!!

Sounds bloody childish i reckon, just like old women talking behind your back.

The secret section aka the henhouse. full of old women clucking about fred nocking off so and so from the chip shop I bet. Must be considering the only people in it are those that never disagree with anyone.


Honestly this rep lark is totally crap. The best forum's i've ever know are totally unmoderated and allow you to say what you like without any secret backstabbing or petty repremand.
