Re: General Chat Thread 3: How is that Model Car!? Is this where we come to say we want rep back? I say, give us gems! If they are good enough for Rarity, they are good enough for me! Sent from my EVO 4G Shift using Tapatalk 2
Rep is a nice contrast to show the QUALITY of a user's posts. Now all we have is quantity. I would rather post something appropriate and knowledgeable and be recognized for it. All you can tell at the moment is how many times someone came in here and said, "I'm hungry" or "Hi, I just woke up". [sarcasm] What a great rating system! [/sarcasm]
You can also tell how often someone did something So amazingly noteworthy, it got the attention of the staff And thus they were rewarded infringement points.
What else are they going to say? Give 'em time. I mean, If they "just wake up", what is there really interesting to say? "Uh, I just woke up, did this.. that.. and got on." Yes it's obvious, but at least they're telling the truth.
He's not saying that we shouldn't post those things. He's saying that quality is more important than quantity.
Alternatively, Someone spends about an hour typing out a massive post, Putting deep meaning and a great deal of effort, To both be heard and to communicate a point. In the end they write out a masterpiece. They are rewarded with their post count incrementing by 1.
I went to make a new facebook and I come back with 3 new pages. This thread is really active today isn't it? Here's my facebook if anyone would like to add me: http://www.facebook.com/tempest.wind.98?ref=tn_tnmn#!/?sk=ff
I'm still fully in the corner that posts like that belong in the chat room. I also still believe this whole thread should be in the chat room.
