    Plain and simple, imo.
    why, are we having some terrible problems that i haven't noticed or something?






    if you look at the banning thread, it seems to me that the people who needed to be banned have mostly gotten it. . .

    honestly, it wouldn't especially bother me if the hammer came down on the 'tards a little more frequently, but i'm pretty happy to have T wielding it. . . i don't really remember many instances of people running amock. . .

This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”

    Neg rep by five posters, leads to a discussion by mods about a ban?

    That way cliques cannot just get someone banned??

    Boooooooo

    Neg rep and rep in general can't get somebody banned. That's for the mods.

    Oh, right. In that case I have little or no interest in this.

    Not sure if the board really needs a neg rep system however as brought up in the other thread if you have a spammer or troll that gets enough neg reps it could force them to be banned outside of certain forums or into one particular forum they may be of something of value. Only problem is what would be the minimum reps needed to accomplish that and what about solid forum members who get into spats on occasion? Maybe Timmy can explain it but what is the goal here and purpose? I read the first page and you brought up doing it out of fun and jest but i think that kind of defeats the purpose of what a neg rep system is supposed to be.

    I'm against this. It becomes high school where some cliques high five all their buddies for every mindless post and then neg rep everyone who isn't their buddy. Totally stifles any intelligent debate because the clique runs everyone off who isn't part of their buddy group.
    I miss the old Mile High Stadium.

    Eh, I've been on boards with rep and I don't think it ever plays out as dramatically as you are laying out. I think it does a great job of stopping people from flat out trolling, as there are actually consequences for doing so. I think for the most part, we as a community are pretty accepting of people who actually try to get along with people and don't spam the board with nonsense. Yeah there are cliques, but I don't think you would see them start neg-repping people into oblivion unless they were just acting like a complete a-hole like, say, yash.

    You probably would have initially when you first arrived but you have been a much better poster since that time so i think you would be ok.
