Reputation

[Rob]

How does reputation work here? After seeing moronic posts from certain members such as the UK being "an islamic wasteland" I am unsure whether reputation here is used properly, or all negative reputation given is filtered out somehow.

Whats the score with it?

Cheers!

From what I know, negative reputation had been off. I'm not sure of the status of it now. I know that's not the answer to your question, but it was indirectly related, IMHO.

this is because the UK isnt an islamic wasteland.

Let me quote it for you since you intentionally misquoted it:



I guess I will just never understand others inate desire to lie. Having a lack of refutable argument is not justification.

Then I apologise, I browsed quickly as the thread was closed.

My main concern wasnt you however - infact alot of what you said I have agreed with. My problems are elsewhere.

Thats ok (Ive edited my post in this thread to reflect). thank you Rob.

I love the UK.. alot. one of my dreams is to live in London or Ireland someday.. I wouldnt disparage anything British for it's British sakes. Defend who you love mentality type thing I guess.

Which I did back in 2001 with your terrorist attacks.

I'll get you a pint if you come over anytime soon. :p

To answer the original post in this thread, Rob... the reputation system really isn't used for much. Enough positive reputation can earn you those little green boxes in your postbit. The negative reputation has been changed to a manually (infrequently) reviewed process since some members were abusing it as an anonymous namecalling method rather than rating the quality of a post.

Whats funny is.. when I was 6, I was adopted. Even though I was born in the USA, I had a British Accent.
