I have been receiving 2 or 3 negative rep from 1 or 2 people in this forum recently. They use uncivilized words like stupid, idiot, brainless, uneducated in their comments. These are not genuine positive criticism as they too coward to reveal who they are. I accept genuine positive criticism. I received good criticism from Tisha before and I thanked her with open heart.

Obviously they are upset because of the greeting new members reward points. I got these negative reps when I was the first to greet the new members. Furthermore I got much reward points in the last batch of reward points given out by SteveO.

Once there is a wise man told me about the theory of rubbish dump which I believe so much. He said everybody gain rubbish (stress, disappointment, failure, worry, etc) in daily life. Once the rubbish is full, he will need to release or burst and dump the rubbish to another person. The receiving person could be anyone – family members, colleague, friends or even a stranger. The person who gets the rubbish will eventually release or dump to another person and the process will continue.

So, for this case of negative reps, these people are full of rubbish. I refuse to take the rubbish because I don’t want to dump it to other people. Therefore, I don’t give a damn to the negative reps.

I think I know who they are. There is one who deduct 7 points when he neg rep. That means his rep power is either 14 or 15. Another one is recognisable from the style of his writing.

Tisha once mentioned to me to report to her if there is anyone trying to stop me or bullying me from greeting new members but I don’t want to do that.

Whoever wants to negative rep me, go ahead if that will make you happy and released. I don’t mind.

Cheers

Well it is obvious someone is jealous. Good that you aren’t going to let it bother you. I do think Tisha mentioned once that she can look in to who it may be if the system is being abused, and it looks as if it is.

I’ll rep you to make up for it. 🙂

But I do so here goes …

Hey guys - there is no need for anonymous neg repping - especially over stuff like this. I like to get reward points as much as everyone else but if Jamesbonded has the time to wait to say hello to people so be it.

I have had people - to include Jamesbonded - make entries and get ahead of me while i have been typing and I know I have sometimes done the same to others. So be it. Learn to type faster.

If you disagree with his advice - and sometimes I do - be sure to put your own in there with what you think is the correct advice. If I disagree with what someone said I say something along the lines of “Another way of looking at it …” or something to that effect and put in my two cents worth.

But if you disagree so much that you are gonna neg rep someone, be a Man about it (or a Woman), _Cowboy (or Girl)_ _Up_ and put your name on it. And make sure to make an entry where you politely state your difference of opinion and why.

We went through a round of anonymous neg repping with one individual some time ago and need to leave that stuff in the past. Let’s cut it out and get back to the business of fun.

'Nuff said.

I can see who gives me reps and negs but not who does it to other members unless they sign them. That’s a administration function. Its really not to hard to figure out though since I pretty much know where everyone is at any given time.

I wouldn’t let it bother you James, You have just as much right to do intros as anyone else. SteveO or myself decide if the post qualifies or not. You know that we have discussed it.

If a person neg reps and doesnt sign it, it says more about there own character then yours. It seems like a small thing but even small wrongs show what a persons character is made of. They have to live with that poor character.

Hello buddy, i also used to get that a lot too from some random people here too remember? Plus they say a lot of rotten abuses to me & my font but i ignored them as i don’t wish to be affected by it & be strong there. I can understand how are you feeling there bro.

Lady Tisha was right on what she say there, you got the right to do intro like anybody else. I agreed with what Inkling & Bosshank have said there too. Don’t let it bother you there & just ignored them like i did. I will expect maybe some neg reps coming at me for backing you up buddy here in this post but if it happen, so be it i will stand by you as your buddy 🙂 I will rep you back to make up what they did to you.

You are right. We tend to disagree with others’ opinion sometimes because we are all very unique human being. But I think he is not on opinion. It is on the reward points.

wow, I didn’t even know you could get neg repped for posting in the intro section, damn i just feel lucky i haven’t got any lol, because i do post quite a lot to welcome new members, although not as much as you james 😛

incidently i got a few positive points for posting in the intro so yea this is quite weird, but i agree people who post neg reps should at least leave their names so they can justify the negativity.

oh well at least i’ll rep you for your hot babes james so you can feel better 😃

Actually you are lucky. Neg reps are the least of your worries around here what with Bella and her Italian hit men and Tisha threatening to turn people into salamanders or in extreme cases sacrifices to Aphrodite - lol. 😮 😃 😛

Hey now, wait a minute Boss! I thought I was supposed to be the only _cowboy_ around here! 😛

But seriously, I have to agree with what’s been said, if the person negging you is too coward to give their name, then they aren’t worth letting them get to you.

I’ve neg repped 3 people since I’ve been here, and all 3 were because they had seriously insulted or been offensive toward another member, and they got the reason for the neg AND my username.

Click on the User CP at the top left of your browser window, as shown in the image, and your reps, both positive and negative, are shown with any comments, below subscribed to threads.

Well if they try really hard maybe they can be _a_ cowboy. You are _The Cowboy_.

And that is _the_ way to do it. So you see, I _was_ right. They need to cowboy up and give their name and reason for the neg reps just like _The Cowboy_.

It only shows you the last 5. So if you REALLY want to keep up with your reps, you gotta check it often.

OK, now I feel better and am a happy camper again! 😉

Glad we got that straight: I’m **The Cowboy** , you’re **The Boss** , Tisha and Bella are **ladies not to be messed with** …And Bond is the … **Sacrificial Lamb**. 😉

Edit: I gotta add Inking and Ariadne to the ladies not to be messed with list!
