The Rep system works.
The only "problem" is stupid people who have extreme posts which multiple people dislike.
You don't see anyone complain when there's a post that has +20 likes do you? No. You don't. Because that post would have been written in an excellent way with good content and people like posts with meaning and good points.
The super-stupid posts by Droyd/Cydra were disliked a lot because they were retarded. Normally when someone doesn't like a post they will dislike it, this is normal.
See the big problem with it was that instead of giving Droyd/Cydra a warning saying "Hey, you're posting threads that are spam/trolling. Stop your shit or we will deny you posting-access."
That, would have worked. Hyping up someone to feel they are popular when they are really being hated and made a laughing-stock on a public forum by adding 10k likes to their account rep and challenging the other users to "see how long it takes to reach 0" is simply stupid.
Extremely bad judgment by whichever mod/admin did that.
No.
What happened was that the CM's realized that "Oh , we did something really stupid! Better remove everything and 'fix things' before they go further bad, redeeming us slightly in the process.".
What really happened is:
You're a person whom the operators of this forum saw that was getting some attention because your threads and posts were idiotic and were getting a lot of dislikes, they didn't realize that you are a stupid person; one operator thought he would be funny and/or smart and up your rep to ridicule the rest of the forum; This lead to you being disliked more than anyone on the entire forum with all members combined; Which lead to the operators going "oooh, it wasn't smart and/or funny after all", ; which is now your current situation.
I find it stupid that someone made this happen. I mean even if you have barely three braincells your common sense will kick in and you will think that "Oh doing that isn't smart, the consequences are unfortunate".
Seriously. You're the rebecca black of Warpportal forums.
i'd vote for you for moderator volunteer
sadly, people thinking and posting like you just get their posts edited and hello kitty answers to their posts, from moderators.
