i recentley had 10 rep points but today it has gone to -50 why?

z3r010 · 02 Aug 2010

Because you went to somebody's profile and begged for rep.

TBH a -50 penalty is pretty good as I usually just ban people for that.

Soo... z... what kind of begging and pleading do I need to do to get my name to reflect down like yours? :) :)

live and learn I guess. you'll get it back quickly if you are indeed a help in this community. There are all kinds here will lots of knowledge.... this being the internet, the user whose profile you posted on, probably didn't think it was funny. I give rep, but not to everyone I see. and I thank those that rep me. You will see this a lot.

Petey7 reps those who help others when he sees them helping, you were asking a question, which, by most standards, warrants no rep received.

Just a quick question, even though I am assuming this thread will be locked shortly, why would he give you rep, when he was helping you.

Well ... sorry to say ... but you seem to be the only one to think your visitor message was funny? The thing is ... what are you going to do now? You could have a big laugh over it and move on?

We take our reputation very seriously here, it is not a joking matter to us. Those who receive rep are usually courteous, polite, and offer kind suggestions based on their knowledge of issues faced by computer users (as opposed to just wild guesses as to what it might be). You can get back your lost rep and much more if you are willing and able to do that.

Also you will find that it is good to be generous in giving rep to others ...

Cheers!
