This is classic stuff. It truly is. In all my years of posting here no one has ever described me as kissing up to Mike. I mean if I kiss up to him why does he ban me? Ask him yourself about how our pm’s usually go. I respect him and I think the feeling is somewhat mutual but kissing up? Please.

Again, the fact you’ve gotten numerous red cards speaks a lot about your decorum. I think I’ve hit a nerve though. Has anger been an ongoing issue for you? Even on a board so slanted towards your political views I get the sense no one really likes you.

Wonder why.

I'm surprised this is even a discussion...

Its obviously TIS/TDS whatever...

You love Trump you have a high rep... you don't you don't.

Its board bias and quite funny. Especially when members bring it up in arguments because its shows that its literally what they're down to trying to sound cool...

That is obvious. But how the rules are stacked had not been till I questioned Mike.

Nothing is STACKED. Everything is at whatever defaults vBulletin set for the rep system.

Nobody has explained why a liberal trump hater like Thaskalos has such a high rep. It's because he's not an ASSHOLE.

Just in this thread I see Sammy the Sage, TJDave, Clocker all have positive reps...all are certainly not what you would call FANS OF TRUMP, all are certainly not what you would call RIGHT WING...why is their rep positive? Because they aren't total assholes either.

When you're an asshole, your rep probably isn't going to be very high.

See above for a few examples that poke some serious holes in yet another asinine board theory.

What about board bias?

There is a serious right/alt-right bias on this board...

You actually disagree with this?

"Rep power" is stacked.

Why should high scorers have extra pull.? Rational?

1. For everyone here who don't understand how the rep/power/points system works please see post number one.

2. Would everyone here with positive rep/power/points please give me more negative rep/power/points. I'm trying my best to pass the most respected poster on this site, Mr. MostPost.

3. This way, according to the administrator, I will be the biggest asshole on the site.

Thank you.

You should all lose Rep points for even arguing about Rep points

Thank you.

Thanks for making me learn how this Ahole Rep thingy works. I just gave you a negative reputation vote. I now get to see what my votes say. I read here alot, but don't reply much.


I thought about challenging you for the Ahole vote, but happy hour is calling. Toodles.

I tried giving some positive rep to Ely when I first saw his rep total at zero...and I got a message saying that I had to "spread some reputation points around" before I could give points to Ely 'again'. I couldn't remember when I had given points to Ely before, and I don't make it a point to use the rep feature on a regular basis...so it seemed fair to me that I should have to "spread some points around" before I could give them again to the same person. I mean...this prevents someone from fixating on a particular person...either positively, or negatively. So, in order to be able to give points to Ely again...I went around and gave rep feedback to about 10 other posters...and then returned to Ely. But, when I again tried to give points to Ely...I got the same message telling me to spread around some more points. So, I ask...how much "spreading around" must I do before I can give Ely some much-deserved rep points?

Wonder why.

One day PA Mike was taking a walk down Main Street, then he took a hard right down Oak.

I went from +109 to -38 in about 6 weeks around the shutdown... I'm quite proud of that drop.

I can't give you any either... FWIW.
