Feedback: Can we bring back Neg. Rep. or something

[ripvdub]

We have a couple handful of negative threads after every loss, wayyy too many. ANd even more in the middle of games where we dont know how they will finish.

This is why I left CR 4+ years ago, and i dont like coming on here for days at a time after loses due to all the over reaction and stupidity.

I'd like to see some people lose the ability to start threads, because they and their "input" are useless.

Can't the mods just shut down the threads?

When we shut down threads, we're accused of being communist censorers. When we don't, we are accused of not having control of the board.

Can't win.

I'm all for negative rep.

Bring it back. If your overall rep goes negative, enforce automatic bans. Start at 1 hour (cool off time) and go up for repeat offenses. 2, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours, then 48, 72, 1 week, month, etc...

Seriously. I'm as ****** as anyone right now, but it's not hard to have a civil conversation without picking fights.

Why can't people be negative when our team looks terrible?

I don't understand this. Obviously you have to control so that there are no crazy things like threats or calling people names.. but for real. This place really shouldn't have to be bursting with sunshine, rainbows, and unicorns all the time.

What exactly does rep get us? I don't care about how much rep I have or anyone else for that matter.

I think there should be a minimum post limit if anything. If you've got 100 or 250 or 500 or whatever limit of spots in, you should be allowed to speak your piece and be trusted to post something constructive.

Then how do you get to the minimum post limit if you aren't allowed to post??? :wink:

Give me the power to lock threads. I'll take the heat. :wink:


I'd have all the bowl projections in one thread instead of each person saying "hey, here's what ESPN thinks" "Hey, here's what CBS thinks!" "Hey, here's what I think!"

People that start threads just because they think their opinion is more important than the already created threads on the same subject are annoying.

Can we somehow give negative rep to McDermott? Cause if so than bring it back!!!

 

[Cyclonepride]

Whether it's silly or not, negative rep does help control that. People think a little bit before they get out the flamethrower, and you can easily tell the negative nellies between games because they're the ones with the red bars. Bring it back!

 

[Cyballz]

I'd negative rep you

 

[Cyclonepride]

I'd negative rep you

Bring it back and give it at the same time to both the neg rep donor and to the neg rep acceptor. That would make it interesting.

What I liked about the Negative Rep was that it told them who left the negative rep and I believe they had to leave a comment with it as well. Makes people more accountable for something before they give the Negative Rep.

 

[Cyclone62]

Yea, the overreactions are outrageous. I can't wait to see what we see what 100 people that never follow wrestling will ***** about tonight. Usually, it's something that was perfectly acceptable.

The ability to disagree with and rip on people in a cowardly fashion. It's a simple-minded view, especially thinking it will have any sort of positive impact.

It is very unlikely that negative rep will be coming back. There were far too many complaints to the mod team about people rep-stalking them, leaving rude comments, etc. A lot of the descriptions of it here are best-case scenarios - this is rarely how it was practiced.
