Reputations

[HerenIstarion]

Is this good-bye to RPGs and Books?

Nope. As ocassional scent of flower from a corn field may make us happier, so the ocassional humour embedded into the fabric of those sombre halls does. But you would not burn the corn field in order to plant flowers there - you'll get a lot of scent, yes, but there would be no daily bread to sustain you to enjoy it long enough.

Now if THAT wasn't swoon-worthy, I don't know what is. Rimbaud, time to share the glory. Fangirls, line up & take a number-- he's here & he's hot.

With this in mind, I wonder: how could davem still be on top? (not that I'm against it, of course.) Is it because his posts manage to make most of the top rep givers click that scale button? Has he created a program to double the points given? Do spiders rep him?

Hmmm . . . maybe those spiders are his minions, which also allows him to find excellent references on the Web.

He doesn't post on Mirth because he's,sadly,too busy writing serious posts which get all those high reps - if they appear.

And he has other business which he cannot mention here - dark business which does involve spiders but which cannot be spoken of openly for fear of rulers......

(No, I won't explain that - you'll just have to ask Lalwende)

Fordhim, yes I think most of my reps have come from the things I posted in Middle-Earth mirth .

Either my computer is still screwed up in a way, or people just aren't repping me with a reply. I've been randomly going up 10 points but there is no reply, just blank. This puzzles me whether I still got gigs to work out in the computer, or that person(s) just doesn't give a reply (not that I'm complaining lol).

[The Saucepan Man]

I have recently (within the space of a few days) received two reps (on the same thread) without a message, which is unusual since all my previous rep points for some months have included messages. What's more, one of the posts repped was not (in my view) particularly rep-worthy.

Have others been experiencing the same thing? If so, I suspect that some random and indiscriminatory rep-awarding may be going on ...

Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it.

[HerenIstarion]

I've got two negative anonymous ratings and one positive (quite a weighty one too).

To be anonymous is rater's choice = random and indiscriminatory rep-awarding. No problem there, I reckon

[Boromir88]

The loose random repper must be fairly influential. I am getting 10 pts each time I get repped. Unless someone has found a way to cheat the system.....
