bahahahaha but goldenfox you really think i downrate you for any other reason than amusement and milking drama out of you ?
But that's why I downrated you. You're supposed to set an example, you charcuterist frenchman. :gawe:
And that's what I do on the main forums. Don't deny it. Taunting gf until he abandons his misplaced ego is just part of the job.

hahahahaha

GF i'll stop downrating you when you stop caring so much about your rep because it won't be funny anymore
So I guess you're well and truly done with your rep nazi idea?

Well, that may be the first time I am compared to the nazis. Thanks truly, I did not know I was a hateful, irrational tyrant.

But yes. After all, controlling rep is more trouble than it's worth. Also, if I passed that rule I would have abandoned my most useful tool for controlling goldenfox.
So it's all about me, is it?

lol I post one bit of not particularly bad advice and I get downrated back to -1

I'm 100% sure you said something clearly wrong.
Yeah, but it was one thing. Just making the simple mistake of typhoon spikes having normals doesn't seem enough to be a downrep, or am I missing something?

Can't tell if you're being facetious, because that description does fit you.

And then I thought your style of offense was more subdued... never mind.

Go on, provide examples, i'll be sure to counter them all.

The present issue, using power for your own amusement, plus targeting a specific member.  I don't know what you call that if not hateful, irrational, and tyrannical.  Of course it's incredibly easy to counter, because it's all subjective, and if you say "I disagree," then yeah, that's the whole thing out the window.

Although one would hope he would act a bit more responsibly than that.

Nary has been borderline power-abusing for a while. What's new?

It is only a minor offense, but if I don't punish people for bad advice they will continue to do it and not care if it is bad or not. And guess what happens if new people do that ? Building level degrades, newbies that want good info are confused, and oldfags whack newfags for stupidity.

You should have checked your facts before posting it.

Gauche has seemingly STOPPED posting bad advice after I whacked him with the rep stick enough times.

Well, that may be the first time I am compared to the nazis. Thanks truly, I did not know I was a hateful, irrational tyrant.

Irrational ? I am doing it because I consider (and I am not the only one) goldenfox to care far too much about his rep. Amusement is another factor, of course, but you're not gonna say to me than amusement is irrational...

Hateful ? I... don't feel like I hate him.

Tyrannical ? That I will not argue with.

It's the issue of you implying that I care only about you. Considering the myriad of other posts I do that are aimed at other people, that argument of yours is pretty weak.

uh what

apart from that goldenfox thing i fail to see any power abuse

And like I say, I was fine with the first two/three smites. I deserved those. What I'm trying to get at is that there was no legitimate reason for the other two. If we could actually discuss the matter like reasonable men, that'd be good.

To me that's not rational, hit someone with the rep stick to get them to stop complaining about being hit by the rep stick - it's pretty much Einstein's definition of insanity.  Your actions are rationalized, like most dictators, but not rational if you look at how the dictators usually end up.


The hateful thing, well I concede that because that's news to me, I guess it's the consequence of not being able to see/hear you.

150x150.

Also, Nary, on a moral level what you're doing is rather irrational, as S_R has said, but I agree that GF needs to learn not to care about the rep system quite so much. But using said rep system to do this is not the answer.

GoldenFox...please, just try to realise that if you want a rational reason out of Nary, the most you are going to get is: 'It's for my own amusement and to get you to stop caring so much about the rep system.'

This vicious circle will obviously not end in the foreseeable future, and so I shall not further my involvement and waste mine and many other members' time.
