Have something witty and insightful to say on TSW just after somebody starts a thread and you will usually gain 15-20 points. Also, I think responding to people like Tiberius works against a poster. I prefer to deal with him just to make a greater point for those who care to read it. You never know what naive person is out there and lurks versus posts that may need to be set straight on quite a number of issues. So if I really am hung up over rep points and percentages I could game the system and substantially boost those factors. I also know how to game the online Monopoly game to win over 3/4's of the time. I learned a long time ago freshman year in college that such programs are biased by the programmer's own biases. yeah, I mean I just thought it was a funny little distraction from all the serious talk and fighting back and forth. I usually don’t see the point because I rarely go on ppp from my computer, usually phone. I saw the numbers and just popped into my head, the idea of points to posts. 1 1

Numark3 Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Ha, I like this idea. Though anyone who posts a lot of tweets, articles, and memes is going to be skewered towards positive results. And unsurprisingly, the results are going to favor towards the people with the majority political opinion. I still like this though Edited August 17, 2020 by Crayola64

LeviF Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 Skews against long-time poasters due to rep points being added three or four years ago. DC Tom and Darin would have abysmal “batting averages” but Darin contributed a lot of good stuff and Tom...is Tom. 1
Paulus Posted August 17, 2020 Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Pffft... I miss The Dude. This place circlejerks a lot, upvoting parrotspeak. The Dude was like the only one who wasn't completely liberal and would go against the grain, sometimes. That is until he got really mad about something. Edited August 17, 2020 by Paulus

I agree, even the ones I disagree with are good posters, even Tibs, probably a nice guy to have a beer with and talk sports, but certainly not politics Edited August 17, 2020 by bilzfancy

Doc Brown Posted August 18, 2020 Posted August 18, 2020 Interesting concept. Wish you could remove all posts before the reputation score started.
