Yeah because of course we are all so shallow that we never rep someone to pray for them there, or to agree, or to encourage them there, or do all the same exact things people do with their reps out here...

Ill tell knight to increase your reps to what mine are now and take mine back to exactly what it was the second of the rest, will you feel better then?

Who on earth said you didn't? The shallowness arose when you lot wouldn't just admit that your rep scores were going through the roof because of your being in SOOTS. It was so ham fistedly done this time around it was blatantly obvious and wasn't fooling anyone actually aware of the perks that the club provides.

If you think I want your reps you've totally missed the point. I don't, by any stretch. You're welcome to em'.

Ive never posted in any thread called 'rep rampage', that you have accused me of. Ive never seen a thread by that name before you and anna brought it up.

How? By giving TH a rep in regular forums and presumably for a post that you thought deserved it? How is he 'gaming' the system if you give him a rep exactly?

Well, apart from the fact that it wouldn't really matter what the thread was called you'd still presumably be reaping far higher reps in SOOTS than on open forums. I didn't accuse you of posting in any specific thread there anyway although 'rep shack' threads were obviously part of SOOTS thanks to LH's gaffe some time back...

Youve gamed the system haven't you? Since gaming to you is repping friends over and over.

I think they said you did it under another user name before...

Around nine years ago yep, although obviously only by regular use of the rep system and for reasons other than just self. I was 'red77' at the time and Chrys can prob tell you the rest. I ain't interested in going back to anything like that as it's done with.

There's no inherent quality about rep, no intrinsic gameliness, if you would. Gamed attaches when people willfully set out to distort and inflate a number inorganically, by which I mean outside of their normal habit and practice, specifically with that goal in mind, without even the why entering into it.

None of that would apply to rep given to me by soots members. None of that would apply to the rep I've given soots members since you gamed the system.

I was prepared to do as I always have, which is mostly give rep to people in appreciation for a post or general effort on a point, for or against my own. Now? Doesn't matter, except that I think it's probably important for someone outside of the relatively coddled inner circle to be seen within shouting distance, if only for the newbs who will wander in and consider sticking around without your allegiance.

Only we repped each other over and over when all our reps were maxed out and they couldnt raise our rep one bit.

Doesnt that just mess with you.

That's a mouthful of saying you are going to play the rep game no matter how the system works.

Me too!
