    No you don't, I fear we have another Ron on our hands.

    Why should that be worrisome?

    It would probably be easier to answer that question if I had any clue what you meant...

    What the hell did you mean as I am lost? I hate being lost.

    Well Ron has been known to not pick up things, such as...oh let's go with sarcasm here.

    Now when I said I had a growing erection...well it was all in jest.

    Unless you were joking about my fapping to Ishtar, and yours was sarcasm too?

    I think I'll just go with 'Yep, it was sarcasm all the way.' as I am still lost...

    Ummm... How about those Carolina Hurricanes?

    I know!

    Isn't it so much better to go on and see tons of little red squares with no name on the end and lots of stupid words like FAIL and N00B? (I've only ever gotten three neg reps! Should I even post that? I have a feeling that they might just go up...)

    I wouldn't know, but fail is a far better word than N00B, to be sure.

    Is there any one word epic enough to describe the need for a Negrep?

    I guess I wouldn't know, having never said anything outright foolish enough to earn a negrep.

    Is that what a negrep looks like in the user CP?

    Well...

    I could give you both a negrep and you can see what it looks like. Deal? (Green boxes mean rep. Grey boxes mean that the person has zero rep and therefore it isn't really counted. Red means neg rep.)

    No need, that's kind of what I'd figured, anyways.

    It does make sense, since the "You've got -100 rep points or less" marker is a single red box, right?

    Actually, you can get multiple red boxes.

    But it would be sort of pathetic if a troll stayed around long enough to get multiple red boxes without getting the banstick, yes?

    Of course, I knew that much. I was simply referring to simply having less than -100 rep.

    Even if he got the negrep in one powerful burst, didn't The Illusive One manage to get two red boxes?

    The world may never know, and I can't be bothered finding out.

    I have zero neg reps then, wow I actually confused a black box to mean a neg rep...should we do something to fix this grievous error?

    Well, I suppose I could neg rep you. I mean, hell, I've only got one rep power anyways...

    Do you really want a neg rep, though?

    Sure, go on hit me!

    Rep's just a form of e-peening anyways?

    I suppose, and you do have two green boxes, so a single one-power neg rep really wouldn't hurt much, but all the same.

    Aren't there better ways to e-peen than with rep?

    No, aa you cannot get back at someone anonomously besides with rep. People know it's you when you have e-peen wars on the forum itself. They don't when you can just write, 'Fuck you' and give them a big fat neg.

    Do you think the admins make it so neg repping can be anonomyous so the e-peen waving can be done in the background?
