By not mentioning it.

I'll have a scout about the thread to find one of my earlier rep rants for you.

EDIT: Here you go. =)

Oh, for crying out loud.

How many times do I have to tell you guys: REPUTATION DOESN'T MATTER. It is a random number that has no bearing on how you act on the forums, unless you allow it to get to you. The best thing you can do is to stop complaining and enjoy your time here.

Okai. Ignore the above then.

But NFX ranted once? Wew.

By posting constructive arguments/posting something that appeals to somebody with rep powers (in the sense that they like it) look at other people's rep and how they got +1, and then find some way to mimic it without looking like you're trying to mimic it...alternatively, forget it even exists, like me, I always forget that rep is there until I see somebody post something about it.

-Don't become gf93
-Don't post about things you don't know about (in showcases, ect)
-Get better at dsl or stock
-?????
-profit!

Rep doesn't mean anything, it didn't bother me when mine plummeted

Everyone rants, it's usually stupid things that set people off.

EDIT: dammit lemme post

I had a rant with Joe in my second day being here.

I do rant sometimes, if a topic is brought up that I feel quite strongly about. Such as religion, football, or celebrities. In my mind, the human race would be far better off without any of them, but it's become apparent we're not going to get rid of them any time soon.

He was known for ranting about his rep alot :P

smashysmashy · « **Reply #21548 on:** October 15, 2011, 05:58:15 AM »

o rly? Curse my not being here long =P

NFX · « **Reply #21549 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:00:16 AM »

He did get a bit upset when people started repping him down for no reason. I think that's one of the main reasons the new system was put in place. They tried it again, but it didn't work out at all.

GF93 is definitely improving, in my view. Still got a little bit of the exaggerated Flashheart persona going on, but he's been handling stuff quite well, I reckon. Especially with that whole "Operation Rep Down GF" that never really got off the ground.

We were the rebel force, weren't we? Well, you, haz and I think Sonny helped too (but I payed haz in pictures

)

NFX · « **Reply #21551 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:03:05 AM »

That's true, there was a bunch of members who just said "Can't let you do that, GTM". And repped him back up again. Which bizarrely resulted in him being on both the Most Praised AND Most Smitten lists.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #21552 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:04:02 AM »

But why GF?

NFX · « **Reply #21553 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:08:20 AM »

I think because they thought they could get a reaction out of him. Unfortunately for them, he surprised them by not giving a toss the next time they tried it, so they sort of gave up.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #21554 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:11:51 AM »

That showed them =P

Also, this is a bit out of context but NFX, can you help me out with that DSL drum I was making before? It's now invertible but the chassis is exposed and weak. Do you want me to PM you it or showcase it? I just don't wanna showcase it because I don't want my showcase clogged up with bad bots =P

NFX · « **Reply #21555 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:14:52 AM »

I'd say showcasing it would be a better option, because you'd get a multitude of opinions, rather than just one. I might be completely wrong about how the bot should be improved.

If you don't showcase robots, though, it's going to be harder for you to improve your building skills, without the advice of other members. It might be quite blunt sometimes, but it's still worth listening to.

smashysmashy · « **Reply #21556 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:16:05 AM »

Chances are that won't happen with you, but okai =P

It was funny, because they all went "YAY REP DOWN GF", I went "How do I do this oh I know haz likes my art let's go bribe him", you and various others went "This isn't right I'll rep him back up" and meanwhile he just sat there watching, not giving a care

smashysmashy · « **Reply #21558 on:** October 15, 2011, 06:40:07 AM »

So GF cared less than everyone else who took part?

Pretty much, though I'm not sure how much haz really cared, he just kinda did as I asked him to
