Once upon a time (before PC hit:madwe could actually ding a rep, too, which kind of makes the Rep thing moot. You can turn it off in your "User CP" under "Edit Options" on the menu on the left, if you want.
Its kind of like "There are no losers, only winners" :rolleyes:
Also, it is greatly appreciated if you post pictures that will actually fit within the screen borders, when you post them. You may want to resize them in "MS Paint". You can see some examples in the http://www.realpolice.net/forums/gen...es-thread.html or the http://www.realpolice.net/forums/gen...mber-pics.html

In my defense It was in North Carolina. We never got alot of snow there. And I did have one repeat customer.:confused:
I cannot claim I'm completely innocent though. I did talk alot of kids into eating june bugs and rabbit poop by telling them it was something else. I just didn't charge them.
Maybe I should have been a car salesman.

Actually, the turning off of the red rep was not a PC thing at all. It was more about members being childish and getting all their buddies to red rep someone because they didn't like their opinion.
I may think some people deserved the red rep, but it's not up to me to tell you to red rerp them.

You are correct... but if your buddy is right about that opinion, why not be able to remind someone to rethink their position or re-inforce it with fact?
Rep should be able to be both built and torn down, otherwise it is pointless and we have Stupidvisors rather than people who know what they are doing.;)

The primary person that did the rallying to give people red was banned some time ago. I'd like it to come back. There are people who definitely need it.
