    I've looked a few folks rep points, and found either positive repping for stupid reasons, or negative repping for pure, just unbelievable stupid reasons.

    I've either removed or reset some of them, and if I keep seeing it, the persons abusing the system will have it disabled for them, or other various fun things done to them. Knock it off, DLP is about users who are brutally fair, not a bunch of sheep mentality showing twats.

    Did I do that? Because I actually went through one thread repping people cause I was amused by almost all the posts. Sometimes I just put <3 or something like that.

    Kai Shek really should have been banned a while ago. He's only slightly less retarded than Slytherin Damian.

    Look at the name, it should be obvious.
    I gave rep to nuhnuh for his Ariana sig. She looks so sweet and innocent, just ready to be violated :devil:

    I don't really like to rep people unless there is a good reason. People who neg rep for the fun of it annoy me.

    Appreciate the compliment Giovanni. If I should be banned, I will be banned. Honestly, there are only a few people who believe that I should be banned, everyone else just doesn't like me.

    I was actually wondering why my rep went from -208 to -75.

    I find it funny that, without Midknight pointing out any names; you guys both knew you were being absolutely retarded and immature in your negrepping.

    You're the one whose been bitching about his rep in his signature my dear. It stands to reason that if you're bitching about it there you're bitching about it elsewhere.

    In the words of Enrique "cry me a riiiiverrr".

    I was hardly bitching. I started with just posting my rep points, almost proud of it. Which followed by mongrels negrepping me with juvenile messages of, "Add this to your sig" This was starting to tarnish my real rep points, and I only responded.

    And I did not talk to Midknight about this, though I did PM Ravenclaw weeks ago when Darius decided to negrep me three times in one day, just saying "Hi"

    Our board has a tendency of keeping people around for longer then they should before banning them.

    I actually saw a few large dips and raises in ppl's points pretty damned fast, without any good reason why. Thats why I looked it over.

    As for Admin points jumping, it used to be 50, Raven knocked it down to 25 when the system first started, I just raised it back to 50 to have more umph back in it now that some folks have quite abit.

    He was around back when the site was starved for active members, and the then current staff made him admin for some reason. He was removed pretty quickly once he was stripped of powers and tried to cause trouble

    I don't ever remember him being particularly sane, but it's been 2+ years so . . . .

    On an unrelated note, this is post #4,000 for me.

    I have no idea how that happened.

    This is exactly what I'm talking about. There isn't a damned thing wrong with his post. He's not being a tard, he's stating an opinion.

    Why the hell the need to neg rep for that? Not only neg rep, but form a neg repping group, then be stupid enough to neg rep with the same fricking comment?

    Xiph0 Mordecai 03:21, 28th Oct 2007 -11 Balls

    TheInquisition Mordecai 03:22, 28th Oct 2007 -2 Balls.

    Lord_Bill Mordecai 03:23, 28th Oct 2007 -1 Balls

    Spacks Mordecai 03:25, 28th Oct 2007 -4 Balls.


    If there had been actual reasons for this it'd be one thing. But this is just pure stupid and I expect better out of especially 2 of those 4.

    I hope you're speaking of Inq and Bill, because I expected it of Xiph0 and Spacks XD

    Mordecai's had that coming for ages. Saying shit like Ben Franklin was a traitor he'd like to see hung, among other things, with little to no retribution (in my eyes) makes him free game for everything and anything. He's easily the biggest anti-American troll DLP has, and probably the whiniest whenever he gets a single negrep.

    As for the post, there is something wrong with it:
    In one fell swoop, a massive contradiction. Basically, he's an annoying faggot and he came up in conversation so we decided to negrep him. There's a lot of fucking annoying people that post fucking annoying things all the god damn time nowadays with little to no response. Raven tells me to just debate them - some people can't be, or have been - debated to death.

    Negrep means the person has a bad reputation among the site, right? It means you find what they say stupid, no? There's nothing more fitting for Mordecai, and here's proof:
    This guy is a fucking cockroach. If we stepped out of line for taking him down a couple pegs, I apologize, but fucking A take out the trash would you?

    Edit: I shouldn't leave this out. Everytime I've negrepped him in the past, even for legitimately stupidass posts, he's taken it to an admin and had it deleted. I expected this one to be as well; so why not do it with others if it makes the little dumbfuck cry a little more.

    Some insight as to where Mordecai may be coming from on this issue. Otherwise I agree he's been a bit of a cocksuck on most issues.

    And the cream of all cockhead comments:

    Link:
    Raven's reply to that:

    Edit: As for docking me 200 points just as I crossed the 1,000 barrier; that's fucked up. You're trying to address the response, not the cause. It'd be different if we just picked some newb out of the crowd and ganged up on him, but Mordecai has a long and well established career of being a fucking dickhead.

    Edit 2: Just for the record, I was gone for 10 days (including when this thread was made), and never even saw it until someone on IRC pointed out that the Mordecai thing got brought up. You could've dropped me a PM easily asking me why the dickhead got hit, I stopped writing paragraphs telling dumbfucks why they were dumb ages ago, it's a fruitless fucking endeavor.

    "Thanks for starting a flamewar."

    Newly recieved negrep...

    What the hell? I had nothing to do with this, and have no opinion about it, and will therefore stay out of it.
