Rep Points/Rating...........?..!

I just dont give a shit

well after perusing different threads and the what not it has become painfully obvious the rep points system we have here on BuellXB is not worth a hill of beans.

Simply put it seems like as I have pointed out in previous posts in this thread that people who have just joined this month have accumulated many rep points for what??

..being witty, just logging in, owning a Buell, having blue eyes, the list must be extensive...

I also see members of this forum who it seems to me have thier rep points go up each and every week by 3-5, again for what, I read what you post and sorry to say it's not warrented.

I am not seeing the merit of this system especially since one can give themselves rep points (I will admit I have given myself at least 10 over the 3 years I have been a part of this forum)

Maybe the system needs to get overhauled (at least reconfigure the rep points so that one may not reward themselves for just logging in or participating in a verbal circle jerk) or has been mentioned in this thread, show who and why rep points are given or deducted.

The people who have actually earned the high rep points that they have can be counted on both of my hands, I have a great deal of respect for those people and they know who they are, those who copiously give themselves rep points week in and week out, month after month are sad imho and seem to feel like they need to pad their reps so they can be considered one of the big dogs/senior members.

In short if you fall into that catagory, get a life, stop being a wanna-be or thinking your greater then you are because if you feel the need to do that on a motorcycle forum what other shit do you do in your day to day life to make you appear better then you are?

Hells if my rep points were zero I could not really give a flying fuck and I have found over the years that the bullshit associated with the rep points system to be a pet peeve of mine.

rant over, have a nice day....and don't forget to give yourself a rep point if you've read this post.
:p
 
so buddha... i see your getting cabin fever up there... i like your rant and agree with you 75% so ill give you a [up] 63-64
but it also sounds like you want to sign up to be the rep point police.
i hate the police.. so for that im giving you a [down]64-63
i've noticed the forum has not had any bickering lately...
so for sh-ts and giggles ill stoke your fire... ill give another [up] if you start calling out these rep point thieves.
 
well squidbuellie, since you mentioned the police..

here is an interesting article that goes totally off tangent of this thread..

as for suffering from cabin fever brother, I am far too busy either operating my CAT, or driving truck or doing the strength & conditioning training for the CIFAC forestry firefighters stationed out at the base near us @ my training facilty B.O.A. Fitness.

I agree On the rep points. Shortly after starting this thread it was clear to me that they really me nothing as there are so many aspects in which one can lose or gain them.

On the tundra forum I am on you can give rep Points and it will show who is giving them to you and for what post, that I feel is a good basis.

But I see mine go up and down all the time but again know it all falls to someone being in a bad mood for your reps to plumit.
