Only if they obsessed about their rep score. Most people look at the rep to posts ratio now, with the assumption that someone with lots of posts and little rep must basically be posting huge amounts of drivel. It doesn't seem to noticeably affect people's behaviour.
Doing a vgrep over your last 200 posts:My post ave is 30 a day.15 of them are in the one word posts. 10 are defending myself/someone else and the other 5 prob have a decent bit of content.
200 posts ago was 7:58pm on Dec 12th. So you've made 200 posts in a 3 and a half days - roughly twice your claimed 30 a day. Of those 200 posts, I saw 9 relating to the one word threads - I might have missed a few, but not many, I think. (At least, nowhere near enough to get to the 50% of your posts that you're implying above).

Really? I'm on 3,222 posts and never once had neg rep.(Doesn't mean i want any either!) So to get 2 neg reps so soon after joining seems quite high to me.
I've only ever given it out once, when someone said something very personal about me i didn't want everyone to know about. I think i'd only give it to someone if they were being deliberately cruel and hurtful to somebody.
I was using my stat ave from when i started. Your figures are def wrong as alot of my posts that type of thread. I havn't sat there and worked out the actual percentage but it must be around that kind of figure.
If I din't post as much it wouldn't give the moaners as much to moan about would it
Yeah. But you should have had 3. I so meant that rep I sent you to be negative. And I pleaded with Franck to change it from positive to negative. (Of course, that would have left you on 55 rep points, not 64)
Hey. Nice plan. I did start neg-repping people who were blatently asking for rep at one point. But I like your idea too!
Only the really sad people who actually care about the rep points that they have.
Don't be silly. 5 with a decent bit of content. You've overestimated that. By. Well. By 5!
Oh no. Trust me. It's not just me. I'm just more vocal that some of the people here!
Me too. But I can also help you with that figure Cruella....
Great minds there Lory....
I refuse to give you negative rep in case you stop showing us your puppies
If your really not that bothered about reps then why post in a thread about reps?
As I said my posts give the moaners something to moan about
akin to the warblings of an emaciated chicken
this thread with woodfaces posts does thicken
always a delight with words squeezed like a pimple
his posts bring a clarity and things seem so simple
Oh. Come on. He's only posted 38 times in this thread about reps ( way more than twice as many times as the next highest poster (15)). Having told us that he's not bothered about himself already....
I mentioned something about hypocrisy in another thread today too!

Sorry Trampy, but surely you are mistaken. After all, why wood [sic, leaving that typo] someone who doesn't care post a poll about whether you take rep seriously?
EDIT: Hang on, that doesn't make sense, even to me. Oh hell, haven't got time to work that one out, I'll go and work on my next lame trying-to-be-a-smartarse comeback
Talk amongst yourselves...
