    Default The Repping conundrum

    First request: moderators, please delete all rep given to posts in this thread



    Ok then.
    Now the thing is, when I look around the forum I often see posts that are clever or hilarious that don't get any rep, but then when someone like Pike posts the exact same thing but without the funny parts it gets two or three reps.

    Why?
    Isn't this kind of like how some celebrities are famous simply because they are famous, not because they did anything original or insightful, but simply because they exist.

    NB4 : I was going to rep you hc but your post says all rep will be deleted.
    This post brought to you by the power of boobs. Dear lord them boobs. Amen

    The other day I figured out how to check rep. It made me feel warm and fuzzy. :3

    Sorry not all of us are so awesome!

    What are you talking about bro, the only person who reps me is Peegee and reps from Peegee don't count because they are always stuff like "Hey how's it going, long time no talk, wanna chat? pika chu pika asl asl"

    EDIT: Also, are you saying I'm not funny?

    Dude, I rep you all the time.


    My feelings on this thread: someone saying the "same thing but not as funny" is your opinion. People can rep whomever they please for whatever. I think you're just butthurt you aren't getting repped enough.

    It's not about my posts (although sometimes I think I do make rep worthy posts, not often, but sometimes)
    It's about I look around and see People making great posts and getting no rep and then other people post something like: [when I find the particular post I'm thinking of I'll link to it here] and they get rep and I'm wondering why.

    Again, it's personal preference. I'm repped posts where I'm the only one who repped them. I've had posts where only one person has repped it. I've made posts I didn't really mean to be funny or deep and they got repped. Someone just happened to like it.

    Quin no, that's not what this is about. What it is about is this being more about who said what than what they said.
