    I'm pretty sure we all agree that the whole Rep thing is a giant cluster fuck. I know that certain people would lose their shit if the Staff reset them or got rid of them all together, but there is a way to make them hidden from under your banner/name/AV

    i'm sure you recall, Karma at SFN, no one but the the poster could see their Karma on the board, You can still give and get reputation, and the members with the most would still be listed, so what say you Shed?

    I've been sick for 3 days, and my mind has too much time on it's hands :jj:


    Just a thought---Happy Saturday

    Oh, and so no one gripes, I've taken everyone off block--so everyone can vote

    I've never given a rep nor accepted one.
    I would always think less of someone who replied only "reps" and people who would always talk about reps, either here or at the previous place.

    You're not taking it away, if you just hide the number from public view, it's not like the number reflects anything---it's just a thought

    Shit. Now I feel like I let you down. I'm sorry. :(

    Can you make an option for "who gives a flying fuck"?

    As some people have said before, I like them as a way to be able to send little messages to people I can't PM or leave notes to on their wall. Otherwise, they mean nothing to me.

    Those with the most will still be listed, and you can visit public profiles to see the damage done

    You can still give and get, all that goes is the number under your name
