Why cant I give rep to a person twice?
February 28, 2013 at 7:57 pm
I just found myself trying to give rep to pocaracas only to notice that I already had.
This happened to me countless times with alot of users, such as apophenia, KichigaiNeko, Darkstar, Creed of Heresy, Ryantology, Rythm, festive1, Annik and others
So why cant I give rep to a person twice? Some people are to awsome to be receive rep only once.

*too
Because that opens it up for abuse. It is not cool for one clique of forum members to keep repping each other and have over-inflated rep points compared to the rest of the forum. Most members don't really hang out with the same group of members in chat or elsewhere, so they have no hope of collecting the same kind of "aren't we just the best of friends" points that some of us would be handing out. You can change the note, though and that will bounce the rep to the top so they can see your new comments.

German, I appreciate you wanting to rep me again, but really, one is enough.

You can receive more than one rep from a person if you go in the control panel and select "enable whore points."

Well, there is only one member in this forum to whom you can give multiple reps ... and that is me.

There is a "clique" on this forum?! Americans use francophones?

some people in my opinion simply deserve it more than once, not due to "whoring"

Yes I've spotted something similar myself. Even that free gift promotion I was running didn't help. (Maybe if I'd mentioned it..?)
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I'm offering free beer to anyone who reps me, redeemable only at the Green Dragon in Portland, Oregon for as long as I have this bar stool growing out of my ass.
