What's with these reps? - Proposed - Aug 29, 2018

I remember back in the day when reputation was meaningful, now I get random +3s saying high quality member. It seems people are just exchanging rep and I think it's honestly idiotic. Since Rep has changed it's not meaningful at all so I don't understand the need to essentially farm rep.

Am I missing something others know?

Rep was always meaningless. It is just a fun number on your profile.

If that's the case I don't want my rep to pass 69 in the future. Negative or positive.

You could neg them back with "Gucci Gucci gang", maybe they'll remove it. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused you. Those damn r4r-ers. It's criminal...

I think social media has gotten into there head to much. To many likes for likes and follows for follow.

It becomes all but a game sometimes.

I wouldn't know I wasn't here back in the OG days.

I agree. I prefer the old reputation system, not too sure why it changed but I'm sure there's good reason.

I was trying to think of something to watch, didn't think of Black Mirror. Thanks for that sentiment. Looked at your rep and laughed, it's grown since this thread. They're just sharing the love. Maybe they felt bad you didn't have any rep since the reset. 😎

And I don't agree that rep is meaningless, that's a terrible statement.

Well the whole contracts system now and of course invalid scammer reputation work that came with it. Im guessing..

Haven't properly looked into that system yet, seems like a good addition though.

People can see you're phoney by how many subscriptions you have.
