Rep system is the main tool of the clique. Once in red you're brown bread.

Although I do sympathise if you've unfairly been targeted I've seen a very lot of posters on here get a red bar under their name and then go on post as good as anyone on here. It's not the colour of the bar that others will determine you by, but usually by the quality of your posts.

Fire away, it would be deserved and the the beautiful red bar under my username would symbolise you doing Movember.

The thumbings wouldn't be so bad if lids would just cut their nails FFS
PLUS the lack of pillow talk (synonymous with rep) makes it all feel a bit public toilet

This all over.

Calling people a Kopite or a Saints fan isn't really going to put you in the best light.

Elong. Got no problem with the the thumbs thing. Its a lot less likely to be abused. It's the colour change that's marks you as a target with the old rep system. Fair enough if you can get yourself out of the red by good posting.

But being -38000 in the red it ain't going to happen.

Yeah and I agree being targeted repeatedly for just who you are isn't the right system. I don't agree with a lot of what you say but that doesn't mean I will neg every post. However, you shouldn't be arsed about it, I know it's easier for me to say, perhaps that's because I'm not too controversial with my views, but hey your views are your own and at least you try to back them up.
Still think it was a better system, as I miss the comments left personally, get some right funny stuff, pos and neg.
