I did see a forum where the rep points were set to 'XXX is on a distinguished path' and 'XXX has earned our respect'.

That was it. Two groups and nothing else.
On AW, we can have three rep point groups; ‘XXX goofs off too much and hasn’t written shit in days’, ‘XXX posts way too much in SYW without editing’ and ‘XXX is learning the rules of writing, but has problems concentrating because they’re pissed popular writer’s write poorly’. I'm not sure which group I fall into.

you martyr and shine.
Don't ban them until I find out what I get to be after "leaves a profuse trail of coolness." Because apparently, it will change after I get four more points.

You can't ban rep points because I'm still waiting for the opportunity to neg-rep someone who desperately deserves it.

I think we should start banning rep points, starting with Bravo. Let's take away 20 points a day from Bravo and see how that goes.

Nah, I don't like the "trade in your rep points" for merchandise. Be my luck, all I'll ever get are the free octopus smoothies at Cephalopods Backwards R Us.

So I see you've been cruising the porn sites.

I just repped everyone who posted in a different thread (something about boxing?). With one notable exception.

:popcorn:

Now I just sit back and watch. Hey, someone find Shadow Ferret for me and ask if virtual popcorn will give me cancer!

Yes, their undoing was all your doing. I suppose you're responsible for the Moon, as well.

Yes...but only its whiteness. I created glare.

don't bring up the blobs, Missy. I worked very hard to be their undoing. Don't make me dredge up the Blob song thread!

I thought that was the Bonk Thread. which was, of course, before my time.

heh.

Yes, Kevin started the bonk thread. And then people started bonking each other left and right. He's a troublemaker.

Aww come on, it's really just the comments and kudos we all really like - the points have no value.

*checks value*

um . . . nevermind :D
