RE: The etiquette of rep
I will admit something that will cause people to want to take reps back:

I hate the Doors. Always have. They sound like a cheesy Vegas lounge act, and Morrison is annoying. THERE. I said it.

And I also hate ice cream. Really. It's gross.

I like to give reps, though. I guess I should try FFF's rep run.

RE: The etiquette of rep
I always check to see if I've repped someone who has repped me.

If I haven't, I look at their posts to see if they're someone I should have repped because I like their posting.

...Often they are Smile

RE: The etiquette of rep
I'd vote for 1 & 6 but I can't so I'll just go for 1.

I see quite a lot of reciprocal altruism in repping, everyone who's repped me have been people I've repped. Maybe a study in to Rep Dynamics would illustrate some tribalistics or something...

I repped you...but you've never repped me...



I just thought i'd let you know how lonely it's been without your rep (JOKES - I only rep people when they deserve it really, at least in my own subjective opinion).

RE: The etiquette of rep
Here is a suggestion to the suggestion forum. I wonder if it is possible to have people that one has repped reported in said people's posts, a token near the username would be nice. I just don't remember who I've repped, therefore I also don't remember those that I did not. How easy is to grok a bit into the code?

Putting it into the code for the member list page doesn't sound all that difficult, but I'm not a programmer. We can only suggest things and hope the gods smile down upon us.

RE: The etiquette of rep
There's a certain critical threshold someone has to reach before I rep them. Sometimes I forget to rep certain people past that point, though. As for my own rep count, I am quite surprised I have as many as I do for as relatively few posts [basing this off my posts-per-day and contribution percentage towards total posts to my rep] I have made. I am often a very cynical, jaded individual which translates into my posting quite often. I'm also rather aggressive towards ideas and opinions that run opposite to mine. All that in mind, I'm surprised I have as much rep as I have. XD
