Yeah there are rep-whoring threads in various places on BigSoccer, and that whole idea basically invalidates the principle of rep. You'll see people with 7-8 nipples but only 100 or so posts. Meanwhile there are also certain posters, who shall remain nameless, who are mostly idiots but have a certain following and receive rep from their minions. If you look around enough places (especially the USA Forums, World Rivalries, and Politics) you'll figure out who I'm referring to.

Ok... I like that, rep-friendly...
MC Motterman and the Fletcher Five Present:
The Rep Rap
I woke up this morning and what did I see?
My rep used to be thousands, now I got 1 0 3
But then I little light went off and the clouds parted
I had an idea PHHWWWAAAAPPPP! Oops, sorry, farted :o
I'll make a genius rap for the posters of the world
It's for everyone here, no matter if your bald or jheri-curled
It's purpose is to spread rep to your fellow man
We all got to get together and do what we can
Click on the tiny scale and type something nice, not mean
We want everybody here to have lots of green
Mee-meep... phew-bip.... mee-meep... phew-bip
So get to work people, get clicking away
This is a seminal moment, this is a special day
Just thought I'd share something that was on my mind
Hopefully this time next week, Rio will have signed. :)

Yeah, my problem is, I rep binge. I'll leave rep to anything I think is worthy for a day or two, and then I don't rep again for days.... and I miss alot of things I would normally rep. I'd like a thread that contains rep-worthy posts, that way I can rep the people who deserve it, as well as it reminds me to rep in other places too...

Ok... I like that, rep-friendly... I edited my above post, prior to reading this response... so, if someone posts something, knowledgable, funny, or interesting that is NOT Zani-related I will rep them.
Oooooh you said the Z- Word I'm telling Mottter....You're in big trouble now Mister..... ;) :D
You know whenever it's name is mentioned it myseriously shows up to bother and confuse us.........

It's not really as polished as I like them to be, I guess it's as close to freestyle written down as you can get when you do them that fast...

Well I used this in another thread, but here's a song to tide you all over:
In my football club there is problem
And that problem is the Glazer
He take everybody money
And he never give it back
Throw the Glazer down the well
So my football club can be free
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have a big party
If you see the Glazer coming
You must be careful of his teeth
You must grab him by his money
And I tell you what to do
Everybody!
Throw the Glazer down the well
So my football club can be free
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have big party
Throw the Glazer down the well
So my football club can be free
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have big party!
P.S. This is obviously stolen from one of the more cringe-worthy, disturbing skits on modern American television. ;)

So if I rep someone higher than me they get no change in rep? Sense it makes not to me, or maybe just unfair.

They gain rep, but only a little bit. The amount of rep you give (either positive or negative) is proportional to the amount you have. So the more you have, the more you give.

no, they get rep, just like 1pt, the more rep u get though, the more weight your rep has...
oh, guys... thanks to Perchik I guess my new nickname for the Oil Tycoon of London is abit more amusing than originally thought, so I will share it w/ you...
Amabigrussianbitch, as opposed to Abramovich.
I dont know who brought us DogBra - but that was funny too...
We can credit Motterman for coming up w/ Error Drogba which is amusing as well, anyone else got some?

The more rep you accrue, the more "power" your rep has behind it. If a newbie comes in with one green, and he trolls, I can neg rep him and he'll probably have a red one after I refresh my screen. The only people whose rep doesn't have much affect are the newbies and anybody with red/neg rep...
Also, it may not appear to you that rep has been effective, but after you get to different levels, it scales a certain way.
Like:
1-100 > 1 green
100-250 > 2 green
250 - 750 > 3 green
That's just an example, I don't know what the actual numbers are, but you can see the idea.

assien... i like that...
I think those fools who came up w/ Shrek and Donkey will live to regret it... they've just given us motivation to will Ruud and Rooney to become some sort of dynamic duo without the capes and cool vehicle.
by the way, since this is as close to an off-topic thread as we will get...
Batman Begins was a nice flick... enjoyed it quite abit and I cant wait for Stealth.
