Rep Point Update

[Isabella]

Aww better to just remove it. Private messages can be abused also. I have seen it happen on other forums. I think some people took the whole rep point system too seriously. I enjoyed all my positive ones and laughed at the few negatives ones.

Just like to see that there is moderating! I haven't been posting long enough to see the abuse of points, etc., but I have seen very pointed negative comments directed at specific individuals. Even general thread topics seemed to digress to that point.

Just the headlines are negative enough.... We should be able to post, read, think and walk away with appreciation and respect for the variety of individuals who post.

If taking the negatives away encourages more positive thoughts & comments, I am definitely for that!!! Thanks for taking steps toward a solution!!

The point system has been used and abused by most all of the active members not pointing the finger except at myself and I could care less about points but mean comments hurt all for the most part. You can make your comments on the board and that will come under your avatar which means you stand by what you say. I apologize for the mean spirited comments I have made. I am not saying I was wrong in my what I believe just the way I tried to get my point across. Thank you SBL for standing up and getting control before the problem became much larger

You are doing away with the negatives, because one person has a huge problem receiving negatives and complained to you about it.

Well seeing as how I was the only person in the red. I can tell you for a fact your psychic abilities are about as useless as you trying to hook 2 monitors to 1 computer.

Brain I was not referring to you. You took it like a man and I thought it was not fair for certain people to think it was okay for you to receive negative points and not them. So chill out! Most people here know who I was referring to.

I've definitely noticed some positive changes since I've been gone this week! Way to go SB administration!
