![]() I see no rules about "tagbacks" when a negrep is unjust.

![]() So long as everyone's whining, anyone else annoyed when people (in this case, Blonde) use the rep feature for purposes beyond critiquing or complimenting one isolated post? In this particular example, Blonde negrepped a post of mine simple because I negrepped him (my reason being: he was posting whiney, small-minded drivel that no one cares about). I guess it kind of detracts from the purpose of reputation when an otherwise standard post gets negrepped because someone has their panties in a bunch about some personal issue.
I posrepped Active for bringing this issue to light. edit: No I didn't... I guess I've given out too much rep in last 24 hours. I'll owe you one. |

![]() Sure I agree with you, UB, but honestly, 90% of reps are personal. You know it's true. The system invites pettiness. I've been neg repped more for my ideologies and personal feuds than anything else. That's just the name of the game.
I don't see how we can do anything to change this. |

![]() UB, your rep itself was a "personal issue". Would you like every positive and negative rep to be put to a Nubblies vote before it goes into effect? You thought what I did was bullshit, I thought what you did was bullshit. Simple as that.
Note i'm not calling you a crybaby, like a douchebag would. |

So true... anticipating that would be the case is why I was against it from the start. I mean... look at me. I just spent five minutes of my life complaining about something that doesn't matter at all.

![]() Of course I realize that. It's completely immature. But the issue still stands....
Which I disagree with. You would do well to note I don't "tagback" everyone who negreps me for a post they thought was bad. Only a couple where I believed they were wrong; which according the rules, or lack thereof, of +/- internets, is perfectly okay. |

![]() Active was talking pretty tough in the previous page. I wouldn't mess with him, even with all the roids my massive self is on.

![]() I think the most interesting thing that has happened is the backlash against all of the anti-Active sentiments floating around. It happened suddenly, yet subtly, and nobody can take blame or credit for it. It simply became uncool because everyone was doing it and it - there was an oversaturation.
With wanting to keep ahead of the times, I'm officially becoming pro-Active, until it's no longer cool, after which I'll switch back again. |

![]() You know you're right. It's suddenly not cool anymore now that the heavy hitters seem to not be hating on him. I should probably randomly and uncharacteristically for no reason at all change my ways as well.

![]() Me too. I think we should stop trying to decode what Active may actually mean, and take what it actually says at face value. In the proper English language. That we've all learned since the age of 1.

I'm not sure what you mean by "protecting" me. I don't have gay anal sex so I do not need protection. And your last sentence...not really sure what you are trying to say.

Little Boy. lol...you get gayer and gayer by the post Mr. Blonde. or should I call you, Mr. Homosexual (because that is what you are lol!)? | |

![]() Perhaps you weren't able to have the reading comprehension necessary to answer that question.
Or maybe my sentence structure is way outta wack ![]() |

![]() FC is growing up (in a way) and for the first time in his life will be living in his own home, no more rent payments to landed gentry. Picking up the keys to this tomorrow:

But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
