I wonder why there is not only the approve but also the dissaprove feature, whichs usage will be cruel

In my opinion it should be allowed 2 disapprove with a useless post
This should prevent people from giving post noone needs and which are useless


but CARE if u dissaprove because u could get some -rep by a moderator who wont show his name, but just takes some of ur rep points


i don really care but i wonder wheter anyone uses -rep or not?


plz feel free 2 comment ;)

First of all, this is the wrong sub category for this kind of thread.

Secondly, I understood very little what you said.
There is a "disapprove" option, if You want to -repute someone, if that is, what You meant.

And lastly, these kind of "reputation" threads tend to get closed, so watch out.

Please use letters instead of numbers, when refearing to words.
2 = To.
Kinda annoying, and could be missunderstood, to read.
Cheers.

ok basically i said

I rated someone with a disapprove because it was a useless post.
Then I got rated from +1 to - 11 by an unknown person. ^^

I just wanted to ask if it is allowed to give a negative rating.

Or is the disapprove feature not used by anyone of u?


Edit: removed 2 twos

(Hm this thread really doesn fit in the WE Help Zone sry ;P)

well, i highly doubt that you have been punished for -rep someone. of course its allowed if you dont agree with a post.

you must have done something different that hurt the forum rules...

i personally dont use the -rep... havent found a reason why i should yet... oh... yes i did once i remember but that was just a response to something really stupid...

-Rep should only be used if the person insults you or make comments, racial or whatever.

Not just if, they happend to be a prick in general. :)=
Like:

-"Please I need help... etc etc etc"
-"Use search...(n00b)"

Well n00b is kinda a insult, although... this is a, among many things, gaming forum... so. Take it lightly.

Anyone can - or +repute You. Sometimes the -reputation is justified, sometimes it isn't.


If this has anything to do with http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=50996
then, I am pretty sure AceHart gave You a warning.


There really isn't a point to continue this further. Just live with that and try to earn some +reputation to compensate your -reputation. :)

Just what I was going to say! Don't use -REP, you see how much you didn't like it? Put a negative comment, say that you don't agree, keep things cheerful and nice say you opinion in a constructive calmed way, those forums are still above WoW Forums' level, let's keep it that way? I'm still in a recovery process from my last visit there.

Guys, guys...getting -repped or +repped won't actually change anything significant...just keep it in a kind and helpful manner, or else :p

When someone continues posting dumb post after i asked to stop posting with no sense then i give him -rep ;)

I think it must have been a friend of a moderator or so.
He gave me -1rep. He was in the Last Received Reputation list.
Then, some hours later, a moderator deleted his name from the Last Received Reputation list and gave me an additional -10 rating^^

WoW forums aren't that bad. Except for the Rogue ones... and Warlocks. ( *Shakes fist* Overpowered monkeys ). Anyway, I like getting +rep, though it doesn't happen that often. Never had any -rep, and I'm intending to keep it that way. Also, Cilla, for that -rep, you must've done something bad :p

Yes...I'm pretty sure that all moderators hate you and are spending all of their valuable time just to come up with a way to give you -rep. :rolleyes:

You were -repped by an admin, for reasons quite obvious. And its not hidden, it should be in your User CP.

Apart from that, everyone has and should have the right to give reputation and decide whether it will be positive or negative. Negative reputation exists as a form of a warning, to let you know that you did something wrong so that you wouldn't go for doing that in the future. Yet it loses its point with all those reputation addicts who believe that they might die if they lose a reputation point.

And as a side-note: chill out. It's only reputation...
And there's nothing to discuss further on the subject...if you still aren't sure on why you got the -rep you can always PM the one who gave it to you. In this case AceHart.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.

    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled
