What's everyone got planned for the weekend?

[QUOTE=Bartender]It's not that it's not CDs (in fact, since it's mostly vinyl, I'd be willing to spend more than usual), it's just that I actually have no money at the moment.

Plus, there's that fanclub only FFL disc in the middle, mocking me :([/QUOTE]

Forget page 1000, page 1031 is where it's at.

I went from 1800 to 3500.

Rep whoring is unfortunately common in this thread.

Well thats not really true. I went to around 3000 from that. Then Bartender gave me a nice repp for something completly unrelated.

Probably just the same old, same old.

[QUOTE=MXican]I really don't care about stars anymore because everyone has them. There is nothing good about them anymore[/QUOTE]

That's true. I've been toying with this idea for a while: now that everyone has stars, and thus give out more rep in proportion to theirs, it is now much easier for a fairly likable poster to get stars. This reduces the level of meaning inherent in it, especially with all the rep whoring that goes on. These days it seems like you can distinguish good sentence writers simply because they have stars. I think we should now raise the level of rep it takes to get stars or institute a more incremental system, i.e. 1000 points gets you one star, 2000 additional points gets you two, 3000 additional gets three...to make the rep and star system more special again.

EDIT: and of course, 1,000 posts before any stars at all.

Well, we [i]do[/i] have a medic in the flat, but I don't think she'd be particularly interested.

I could maybe cancel this Amazon order I'm waiting on, though..

I don't have stars :angry:

munky_magik 02-17-2005 02:40 PM

The problem with the system is that people abuse it. That's basically the only problem, if people had treated it as intended then you would be able to distinguish all of the good posters.

Or could it be that the majority of MX are good posters? There are exceptions of course, a few people that have stars seriously shouldn't have them.

Hey Bartender - you kept closing my threads bashing Eleventeen; why aren't you closing JoZ's thread bashing me?

I can take care of it, I'm just wondering if there's some perversion of the justice system here.

munky_magik 02-17-2005 02:43 PM

You can get stars from being +repped by only 3 of the right people. Adversly, you can also be negged into oblivion for no good reason. I don't think it's to big of a deal, your posts will always say more about you than some stars next to your name will.

I'm so glad somebody made an anti dargon thread :D

It's like a holiday [B]with in[/B] a holiday for me.

Should be "within"

Maybe mods should be the ones who distribute stars

I don't write that good of sentences, and even I have stars.

The stars tell you who the popular posters are more than they tell you who the good posters are.

Morbid curiosity, I suppose. Interested to see what happens :-/

I'll close it if you like, though, or if things get out of hand.
