Reputations - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Try this post for a wonderful explination about the grey box from The Barrow-Wight himself. Also reading over the first 2-4 pages of this thread can be very helpful in general rep questions, though I don't mind answering the ones I know.

Ahh, thank you mormegil! I should have read back, but obvious things like that don't seem to occur to me. Thank you again for the post-link

TP:

Oh no!

After a long time of strugglings, I am at last bound for the straight road. Which is a comforting thought, I suppose.

So, thank you all.

On another note - is there a possibility for anyone to see who has repped the post when it is done anonymously? Just to be on the safe side when the phantom or anyone else high up on the list suddenly goes all destructive and power-hungry and set up a random negative reputation giving-army?

I hope there isn't a way to find out. That would totally ruin my plans.

But seriously- I'd bet Admins could peek if they wanted.

I am fairly sure that they can and would do to stop abuse ( but if I remember rightly from many pages back are, not to be bothered with trivial case when someone is merely, miffed, peeved of piqued).

I remember once reading stats saying that a certain percentage of reps were unsigned. How would you know that unless you could see what they say? Wish I remembered where I saw that though. I'll go look... after all... I really don't feel like writing my paper.

EDIT: I found it! Look at me, look at me!

Has anyone else been watching with interest the "tussle" for second place in the Rep stakes that has been going on this weel? Perhaps even Lalawende's place is not as unassailable as I had assumed..
