View Full Version : Abuse of negrep function



Loki
07-13-2012, 06:53 PM
Some members have again been subjected to barrages of negrep comments - I have now rectified it.

The horror is that in some cases, staff members have participated in it as well. I do not take kindly to this and it will be addressed in the future.

Okay, it won't happen again. 5 neg reps maximum per week for me, although I rarely used them before Ghost Knight showed up.
And I won't target them all on one or two members, just when a very unacceptable post has been made. Is that fine or should I be even more moderate?

On the other hand though I'm a generous with positive rep and that will continue.

OT- I would like +1 or -1 response for a post. Nobody could see who gave them except the author of the post.

Majority of my thanks are what on youtube would be +1. I'd like to have an option of -1.

My thanks signify either agreement or interesting point or interesting contribution.

I'm very stingy with my reputation responses.

A mod of this forum once neg-repped me because at a post about what's in our fridge I mentioned having balsamic vinegar in the fridge :D

And apparently she thought it was such a big deal that balsamic vinegar shouldn't be kept in the fridge that she neg-repped me! :D Go figure. Italians must really love their balsamic vinegar :p

Oh and I forgot to mention it was creamy balsamic vinegar which is supposed to be in the fridge as it's more of a sauce than a vinegar. :D

That's the problem I had before - I was giving people positive rep when I wanted to voice something in private. I still use positive rep for most things though, it's a shame there isn't a neutral rep for short messages. I often relay info that way.

I've only gotten one neg rep, and I kind of deserved it; my post was half-troll/half-serious, but in the context of the thread it was more serious than everything everybody else posted.

Here's the rep.

"The 5% Negroid is visible in you..."


I definitely like the idea of neutral reputation. There are plenty of things I'd like to post in response to specific posts, but they're not directly on-topic or they're not substantial enough for me to warrant a post or a discussion.

Yeah, same here. I often comment or give people a bit of advice via rep.

The only neg-rep I recall getting was from IM - 'arrogant englishman' or something like that.
It was because I said I didn't want his people associated with the English, but I put it across a bit different from that.

Some things are in rep comments for a reason and are not to be broadcast to the world. ;)

Private messages can probably be read by the higher levels of Admin. I had a forum before and could do it (although it wasn't VB).
I couldn't care less about Mods seeing most of the stuff, just that some of it isn't what I want the Apricity unwashed masses to see. ;)

I might have given one or some totally by mistake.
I use mostly my iphone and when i press that thing in the middle wich i thought was for coment rep, turns red, so i touch it again so it doesnt stay red.
Havent bother to investigated much further.
So can someone take us through how it works?
And i apologise if e ever given any, obviously

Sometimes I wonder on the wisdom of the reputation system, it allows for more sinister, barbed attacks, and the silent factor of it can make for the ones being neg-repped to feel more upset by there not being any public accountability for their actions.

Plus, for some reason, people seem to get so bloody upset by seeing that red dot! :tongue

Wow! :eek: Good work.

The only thing is that there's no neutral rep comment feature for sending comments though. I've highlighted this before, and so since most members are non-funding it means that they communicate positive, negative and neutral rep comments all via positive rep. Most members will insult you or disagree via positive rep because they haven't got neg rep.

No I didn't. I use positive rep comments as compliments for good or funny posts and not necessarily as a SMS tool. Sometimes but not regularly. Negative rep is something I give out really sparsely and only when the other side 'deserves' it and asked for it for a long time. Let me think...Uhm, I'd say that I didn't hand out more than 7 or 8 disapproval reputation points ever.

Hassad

Nothing to be scared of, just not interested. I believe I can judge my own posts quality and standard objetively and don't really need external approvation or cookie points.

If i recall correctly I had quite lot of green squares before I turned it off. I think if I turn it on again it'll be the same.

Turned on my reps just for curiousity. Seems like I'm the third page around the same place with Stefan, and higher than Debaser11 and finbau.

If reps were an accurate representation of posting vs. quality ration, those posters should be way higher on the list than I am.

A very accurate observarion. Disregarding your particular case, my overall judgement would be that quality of postings has very little to do with rep, unless its VERY high quality.
The main thing which matters is, the ability to make, as many posters as possible, feel good.
That means posts written with emotion and wit.
Informative posts usually suffer, undortunately.
Loki has high rep, because he is the main admin, a nice guy and usually gets excessive rep in the Apricity helpdesk suggestion section.
Many others have reps because of their pics.
Some have because they only give their judgemental opinions on topics instead of actively debating and hence their followers crown them.
Good posters rarely make it to the top, with a few exceptions.

Richly deserved. You earned it and I gave you the reason in my message. You and a few related Turks attack others and then hide behind Onur who cleanse your mess and saves you from warnings and bans.

Deserved. It was the beginning of the Turkish flood.

You received two or three red points and all of them were earned for your posts out of touch with reality. If I were fair and didn't go lenient on you I had to give 1.400 red points for 1.400 out of your 1.590 posts who were facepalm worthy.

I like the reputation system but it should not be done away with because a few people are abusing it.

Oh alright. Thanks for the info. Does the person you negrep see that you negrepped him?

If you press that little triangle it reports the post. And the mods get a report about a post saying: you little piece of@&**%$ *&^(&^$ and your mother's %*#)$%*%&%& didn't love you and that's why you &^*($))#U)& all your cousins too! )&%)(*)#)#)_%*&^% asshole!

This was all obviously intended for the person who you disagreed with. But then the whole mod team sits with this, whilst the intended victim of you ire is completely unaware of what happened.

"Report post" is a bad name for this though. I always thought its to report to admins or something, not give bad rep.

It is what it is precisely. Report post- it goes to mods and admins as reported post. you can't use it to give neg rep points to anyone, Dengizik was joking I think...

Then how do I give negative rep? :lol: I only see possitive rep to give, not negative. It only says "I approve", no other option is there. :picard2:

You cannot negrep unless you are a funding member, mod or admin.

Only admins, mods and funding members can give those :)

Bad reps are for loser people.
