How do you know you're the highest-rated? You can't see other people's reps.

Bartender 12-20-2004 11:00 AM

You can organise the members list by reputation. It doesn't actually show the numbers, but it changes the order.

Not sure if it works, though.

LordDargon 12-20-2004 11:01 AM

Cool, I didn't know that.

*goes and tries it*

Bartender 12-20-2004 11:02 AM

Like I say though, not sure if it works. There's a few people nowhere near the top of the list who should be, according to how much rep they have.

LordDargon 12-20-2004 11:08 AM

Some Josiah dude, non-mod, 5000 posts, and I've never seen a single one of them... he was first after all the mods. :confused:

I was on the 2nd page. yay 4 mi

Bartender 12-20-2004 11:13 AM

Yes, I've never seen him either. I find it hard to believe he's above Zakath though, as Zakath has some 15,000 rep points. Humor also isn't close to the top, though he has 8,000 (more than DonMancini, who is). I'm also not on the first page, before my modness giving me 20,000 as a baseline.

So I don't think the whole things works :-/

When i was looking through, I saw some one with my Avatar.

I'm lucky he didn't neg rep me that time then.

BludgeonySteve 12-20-2004 11:31 AM

10000th post!!!!!!!!!


*since you guys won't celebrate it, i'll just have to.

Bartender 12-20-2004 11:36 AM

*celebrates*

I got 10,000th reply, too. Though I was rather hoping to have reached my 1,000th by the time the thread hit 10K.

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:01 PM

I swear, if anyone else is being an ignorant **** in that Alter Bridge thread, its gonna be flame city from me. Ive had enough of noobs saying there bad because 'TerReMonIT SoO's Are To FAsT!'

shortass 12-20-2004 12:07 PM

I've never herd Alter Bridge :upset:

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:08 PM

Do you have msn?
I can send you some tracks over it if you do.

gmoneyguy 12-20-2004 12:08 PM

Almost the exact same thing as Creed. Their new singer sounds just like Scott.

And don't see anything "astonishing" about them........just another "MUCH/MTV" Hit band

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:11 PM

That is exactly what im talking about. Creed SUCKED. Its the truth. The music had no passion, Tremonti didnt enjoy himself while playing, Stapp was just balls at singing. Alter Bridge are toally different. Just because 'Open Your Eyes' was a ploy to get them noticed, doesnt mean the rest of the album is like that. It isnt, the rest of the album is amazing, plus, ive seen them live and they blew most bands ive seen out of the water.

I have only heard that release. I actually didn't mind Creed though.

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:15 PM

You should give their other stuff a chance. I didnt think Open Your Eyes was great, and admit it was a cash grab to get them back onto the scene, but one day remains is the best. (the song)

gmoneyguy 12-20-2004 12:17 PM

Can you send me an unkown song a bit later?

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:19 PM

Sure if you have msn.

shortass 12-20-2004 12:20 PM

I'm investigating them now :thumb:

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:31 PM

Cool. Avoid Open Your Eyes if possible.

BludgeonySteve 12-20-2004 12:37 PM

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]Cool. Avoid Open Your Eyes if possible.[/QUOTE]
That's a good song. Why should he avoid it?

CaptainWaits 12-20-2004 12:40 PM

^^cuz it's by Alter Bridge....That's y u should avoid it

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:43 PM

Shut the **** up aminosity. Give reasons. I mean avoid it if your one of those AlTeR BirDge is CrEdE noobs.

Bartender 12-20-2004 12:44 PM

I'm fairly sick of Alter Bridge discussion, too, but I just have to say that the solo in Open Your Eyes is really, really bad (in the context of the song, not in an absolute sense).

I finally heard it a long while after all the talk about it in the review in CD Reviews, and it's pretty close to being the most awfully out of place thing I've ever heard.

Arucard 12-20-2004 12:46 PM

****, im not going to argue with a mod, no matter how much i disagree.

Bartender 12-20-2004 12:50 PM

Oh no, feel free to argue. I've witnessed/taken part in the bloodshed in the review, I think I'm ready for more or less anything :) I don't want people not to argue with me just because I'm a mod, anyway.

I just finally heard the song (saw the video on Launch, actually), and when the camera focused on Tremonti about 2/3 of the way through, I thought "ah, here's that solo". I approached it with an open mind, I think, and the first few notes were in the style I think was good for the song. But then it very quickly went very horrendously twiddly.

He won't care as long as you aren't an adamant dumbfu.ck about it like me :D

The top three rep'd posters are drummers, and only Zakath have I ever seen anywhere out of the drum forum. Josiah is apparently a good guy who knows what he's talking about.

Also DBJ is a drummer. :p


And he handed out rep to those guys without knowing how much he actually gave...so they got quite a bit to start off with.

Bartender 12-20-2004 01:47 PM

A drummer conspiracy?

BoboTheRagingHobo 12-20-2004 01:49 PM

[QUOTE=Bartender]A drummer conspiracy?[/QUOTE]

Yes, a drummer consipracy put on by the government plotted against us in negative ways. :eek:

Per Ardua Ad Astra 12-20-2004 02:11 PM

Drummer conspiracy, SFK...what?

Paranoidd 12-20-2004 02:27 PM

Apparently Zakath had more than the mods at one point, but MX himself stepped in and used divine intervention to knock him back down a bit.

I'm not even sure how much my reps are worth, any respectable poster want to be a test subject?

DonMancini 12-20-2004 02:28 PM

Oh come on, everyone knows drummers are just cooler :-*

Oh and I was wondering.. technically you're supposed to have more than 1000 rep in order to get stars, right?

Free_thinkers_are_dangerous almost has 2000 now, and still no stars. What's going on? :p

Join date maybe?

gmoneyguy 12-20-2004 02:31 PM

hmmm, maybe the rep system doesn't like him.


I take it D&P has more rep whores then The Pit

munky_magik 12-20-2004 02:31 PM

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]The only problem with Papa Shank is that 50% of his posts are pit spam [/QUOTE]

Most of his spam is pretty funny though. And he knows what he's talking about + he's not a moron. Also he's Scottish :) There's another few good guys in there like AES and noname and rokr.
