It's funny how you stop getting bad rep once you become and mod and people know that you could see who repped you.

Yeah, I understand what you're saying, I just felt that the rep system added a little something extra to the place. And I'd be happy if it returned in some form.

Yeah, that was one of the good things about it, mods could see who gave rep though.

Thank you~ I just figured out how to do exclusion layers, and of course I'm overusing them. It really does make the image much more interesting, without adding a whole lot of brushing or textures or stuff.

Good point Alex. :P Getting modded would definately drive a lot of people away from neg repping, but then again there are also the mod haters. :P

I actually got more bad reps when I became a mod. All from idiots who were pissed because I closed their threads. I was so tempted to bad rep them back and send their rep bars into dark red XD

Alex_ January 4th, 2007 3:36 PM

I think I only got bad repped when the person didn't know I could tell they did it.

I still got bad reps as a mod too. D;

I think Dakota abused it the most. He'd rep you like five times a day sometimes.

An admin? Since they are the only ones who could exceed the daily rep limit.

Ullion January 4th, 2007 3:42 PM

>.> I wouldn't like the idea of giving people bad reps. Then again, i wouldn't do either way because I try not to say bad things about people, unless they really pissed me off xD

And if its a pos rep, then i just wouldnt know waht to say, i don't know why, but i get nervous when i try to compliment someone or something, unless i nkow them well adn it feels mroe antural, but i wouldnt rep some at all if they were some random person who i just saw >.<

I'm not sure what they were.

Then what are they now? Though, I think I know.

Ullion January 4th, 2007 3:44 PM

That's pretty much the idea. We had other members who thought otherwise though. They probably figured high post count and high rep would lead to becoming a mod, which is what everyone seems to want for some reason.

I don't xD

Wait, whose Dakota? An admin? Czu ive never seen a 'dakota' on here, ive heard his names a few times...

I can't think of any of our admin uppers who would do that to tell the truth. I did like rep a while ago, but I never went around begging like so many of our members did.

22sa January 4th, 2007 3:50 PM

Dakota changed his name to John Denver. :P

Back when I first joined, I believed high post count would lead to becoming a mod, which, I was horribly wrong. D:

Most people made it seem that way, so it would only be reasonable to believe that when everyone is saying it.

And, subsequently, got banned. Funny that.

Ullion January 4th, 2007 3:53 PM

Ok, i don't know who John Denver is.. oh wait, i remember someone (I think it was Matt) posting a link to a post by him xD

The Fallen January 4th, 2007 3:53 PM

It's actually kind of funny to see him sign on sometimes even though he is banned. I don't get how you go from being in the second highest usergroup on PC to being banned.

Some people can surprise you I guess.

22sa January 4th, 2007 3:55 PM

Clix, it's happened with Abby too though. :\ Well the end for her wasn't as severe I guess.

Yes, he did.

The Fallen January 4th, 2007 3:57 PM

I'm not sure why she would do that though, she was an admin who could change it if she desired and could get away with it.
