intresting.
Never tought people would SE in this kinda way.

Thx for the share and also maxim

You should also take into consideration that reputation doesn't mean your trusted. And DWC doesnt mean your actually dangerous. Who knows if a 12 year old repped a member saying it because they were mad. I dont even take into consideration reputation

No, normal members give neutral reps - then PM saying they gave it to you by mistake after you rep them back with a neg or neutral.

what about the guy that always posts the same rep on everyones 'Positive (+3): This user is not a fan of Summer Glau. I would have to recommend avoiding him at all costs'

Is he dodgy?

No it's not against HF policy.
We recommend you take the time to read the HF Help Documents section. The answer to your questions should be contained in there.

I would say yes, 100%.

It's hard to document this, however, so it's difficult
to take action against users who do this.

No, ask any ub3r to check my given rep that doesn't come from this year. Its all "r u a hacker"

Happened to me before. Someone randomly negged me saying DWC. Someone whom I never heard of. So i negged him back. And then he pms me saying. Sorry wrong person. So he changes to positive. I leave the neg and He negs back lol.

I checked that users rep given and noticed he does it a lot


* - Wet Rag - Jun 15, 2017

This is why I NEVER change my rep once i give it

Your signature says otherwise 🤫

I guess thinking about something like that to scheme for rep only leaves two types of people.
A.) Scammers who just keep coming back and need a fast way to get rep
B.) Someone who cares wayyyy to much about rep. I mean way to much, it'd probably be easier just to make a few contributions if you're legit though.


* - nicksaban1 - Jul 13, 2017

It will always happen, one way or another. What sucks is, if you dont resolve it, the neg stays on your profile. All you can do is save the pm's and send to omni.


* - Armada - Jul 13, 2017

What can be said, you bring up a good and valid point in OP.

I think we have all seen this happen way too much at times.

Frankly last person who did that with me still has a neg from me.
