About the New Board and the "Reputation"???
>>There. I turned it off.
Understood. It's too bad that so many people were juvenile about it. In reality, there are good posters and bad posters. That's just part of the reality of a message board. Everyone would have eventually gotten some kind of rep, it's just that with 10 pulls a day, you can't rate everyone. I'm sorry that so many people acted like babies ("I want some rep!!!)"
To me, reputation is like respect in a lot of ways. You don't just get it because you've been around a while or even if you post all the time. You have to earn it. Plenty of bad and no-name posters have been around as long as many of the good posters who do have some credibility. JMO
Hope to see it back at some point and not so much of a sideshow.
