Negative reputation

Ah sorry Minty, i seem to have misled you.

This isnt about japan, even i dont like everything about japan, infact im pretty sure ide rather not live there the rest of my life . My main concern is individuals who i feel are misbehaving a little, not entirely fostering the friendly atmosphere, bordering the line, generally pushing the limits of the peace and rules of the forum.

Where I do agree with nurizeko that negative opinion works where people are responsible enough to use it propperly, it does backfire when you have someone who just doesn't like what you happen to say. Generally speaking my rep is 99.9% okay, but I've gotten one negative rep from someone ages ago who no longer posts simply for questioning what it was his point was in a rather oblique thread he wrote---

I think I prefer that admins simply take a vote and remove posters who prove themselves to be too imature to write on a public forum without managing to insult every person who happens to cross their path--- and I am refering to a few people who have been posting recently... one or two have been removed already, and time will tell what happens to the rest.

Where I do think that age does dictate your ability to compose a half-legible sentence, there's not much you can do about that--- At the moment, there are certain people whom are frankly damaging to the quality I think is inherant to Jref which has been built up by the many fine people who have contributed here.

The problem is the mod voting doesnt seem to be effective, because theres one or two people on this forum who are blatantly getting away with spamming and trolling and all around clearly attempting to offend everyone while drowning sections of the forum at a time with their pointless drivel.

I wont mention names.

There goes my experiment at attempting to get J-bot banned...

Hey! J-bot is my only friend here, he is the only one that talks to me and listens when I say something...so please don't ban him

Because the Negative reputation doesn't exist anymore, and it will never come back, I am closing this thread.
