Religious people get very little reps, it's xenophobia and religionism.

Winter specified reps, but I think he meant kudos. We got a little sidetracked with refrigeration, engineering, patent law, rules, punishments, American football, COVID, Black Lives Matter, salvation, sock accounts, spam, bacon, wages, email addresses, and (for all I know) why pandas don't like to breed in captivity.

Just another day in the neighbourhood.  Wink

No patent number though.

that list of things i asked for are things that the email i am offering contain about me. seeings how your reading comprehension is not as on par as you would have us believe, That was me explaining to you why, i did not offer this email openly. because everything on the list that you in no way shape or form would want me to know, would be exposed to you, You being someone who does not like me, and does not have the same religious restrictions concerning integrity and respect for others as i do. 

quid pro quo Clarise.. quid pro quo.. 

if you are not willing to make that information known, then why would you ask the same of me? why would you continue to press and do your best to pressure me into giving you this info? Again sport,  if you will not trust me with that information why should i trust you?

Do you understand the reason for the list now?
I posted my own patent for all to see, so clearly that is not an issue.

You already claimed that your personal details would not be present since you had sold it anyway, so what are you afraid of?

You asked for stupid things like my bosses name. I have been self employed since the 90s. I have no boss nor want one. Another stupid demand.

Bottom line is that I have volunteered as much information as is bring asked of you. And you failed miserably. Because you don't have it to offer.

And you wouldn't believe the machinations and twists and turns and contortions of theology he's cooked up to rationalize that.

Well u don’t get reps on posts. You get kudos on a per post basis. I have no way of knowing the average judo ratings for the populous. Do we have any math whizes in the house?

As for reps, meh start another rep thread and try your luck. I think reps is a fairly overall view of a persons contributions. I don’t know if it’s unequally biased, my gut feeling is that it isn’t. I will say I’ve seen the average atheist earn reps quicker than an average atheist. I would contribute most of that to the reason theist join an atheist forum and the assumed distrust of flaming tendencies.

For the kudos who is ready to do math?

total posts - 4181 (0.99 per day | 0.21 percent of total posts) with 1667 kudos (it's the closest number we could probably use.)

Could someone give me an average kudos rate, it's late and my brain hurts from the paint fumes.
Also, if any other theists and preferable an agnostic and an atheist ( could post their numbers it would help in the assessments.

I don't know that you can get a real picture.

Members who have been here for years and back when the forum was more active have a lot more reps than many newer people.

That's a fair point, but I'm certain there are other factors, is it a mostly humorous poster, mostly political or controversial... it's just for Sand Gs though so should be close enough with rate of posts over time to total kudos over time

There used to be a page to track that.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

A recent study conducted by The Borudian Institute has determined that the ‘sweet spot’ for reps is 104. Users who are stuck at this number tend to be happy, secure, well adjusted, and highly attractive to the opposite sex. People lower that 104 just aren’t trying, and people higher than 104 are insufferable show-offs.

Peer review of the study is pending.
