I'm not silly

I can see skyhigh getting annoyed with the spamming going on here, so I better keep it short, but that's good of you...I could give you some friendly examples of such protestations from users.. Then again, you did use to be a (fantastic ) mod yourself, so I'm sure that's not necessary haha!

I normally pos rep peopel for being amusing.

I neg rep idiots so I usually don find it hard to give neg rep

that said i prob only rep 2 times a week and it can be annoying if i wanna rep 3 people on the same day but cant. usually i dont bother to go back the next day so i dont bother giving it in the end

maybe we should have a system of 7 reps in a calendar week as opposed to 1 a day for this reason?

Is there anyway to hide your rep? Im sure Ive seen some people with just a black gem there instead.

EDIT: Never mind, did what I should have done first & read the FAQ's

I got a little bit of payback neg when I left. While I was a mod actually I got none that I can think of for that reason. Used to get lots of pm's from people saying sorry, whoops, that kind of thing. You know it makes sense.

One thing I do find interesting is people's motivations for negging are not always as obvious as one might think.

Rep more, only ever negged people who've been consistently annoying - so only once for one post I think.

People saying sorry is an occasional one, it hasn't happened often, but when it does, it makes it all a little more worthwhile!

Yeah, I'd agree, on the other hand, I rarely get negged, 3, maybe 4 times since I joined, all but one being neutral. When I see/hear about others neg though, there is something that clicks in my mind thinking..was that really the reason?

I rep if I get repped (which is never...) I've never negged someone, no real point. Most who deserve neg rep are just trolls and end up leaving. But I constantly get negged when disucssing opinions. Silly me, my opinion is wrong, I should have known that! Seriously I was on a green gem and suddenly went to like -40 within a few seconds.

Oh well, the red gems look so much cooler. Gimmie more

I rarely neg but if someone really really pisses me off then I will.

I would say over 99% of the rep I have given is positive.

Statistically, just less than 15% of the reps I've given have been negative. Nearly all of them were from when I was a n00b (they weren't even worth anything anyway..), so these days I'd say about 1% of the reps I give out are negative. It only happens when someone really annoys me, which isn't often.
