lol, I just tried to give Ron a positive rep point (trying to make him famous, you know), but apparently he was the last person I gave points to...so it told me to spread the rep points around before I give more to Ron!!! Not fair!

I have a temper and a half but in here I usually skip over something that I don't like.

Ok that's all folks.

mmm me too. To both parts

Okay I never even knew these rep thingies existed.

So I checked and I only have one comment. I think I'd rather be on a shameless road than not known at all!

(and that wasn't meant to be a negative comment with a

at the end either LOL)

Well, clearly the system has some serious flaws, so I will accept cash or extravagant gifts in lieu of reputation points.

I am surrounded by water, so a boat would be nice.

I have a kayak I can sell ya dirt cheap.

RonE · 06-14-2008, 09:38 AM

I already have a kayak and a canoe.

I was thinking more in terms of a Boston Whaler.

You can borrow my 150 foot yatch RonE. Should be big enough for the family and dogs.

Thanks to the person who gave me the positive rep, but the fatty comment was uncalled for, I'm not fat, just big boned.

Willowy · 06-15-2008, 01:12 AM

I had no idea about the rep points. So I checked mine now, and I guess I have 5 comments. What are the blue squares? Are they "neutral" or something like that? Or just another color to make things interesting?

sillylilykitty · 06-15-2008, 01:46 AM

I have never heard of or seen blue squares before. I thought there were only positive and negatives because those are the only choices to give people.

Oh yea. Definitely.

I've had some really nice comments and some that were really uncalled for.

I always forget that the reputation system is even there. I think in my entire time on DF I've only given one or two reps, and I can't even remember when or to whom they were given.

The blue-grey indicates that the person who posted the points hasn't been here long-enough to have an opinion that counts.

(I probably could have found another way to word that.)

If there is no accompanying comment, you can assume they would have been positive, since you cannot post negative reps without a comment, but it doesn't count toward your points.

iwantmypup · 06-15-2008, 11:12 AM

I have good rep. I will be famous one day! I will show you all!!

Muahahaha!

here are some of the more recent ones:

Way to sound like a sexist jerk.

Nice parenting skills obviously. Maybe you should have gotten a dog before you had kids. As many people have told you before, you are not the only person here who loves their dog. At least some of us actually care enough to do what is RIGHT for them.

your jack-ass comments are getting past amusing.

HA!!! Those are awesome! Congrats!
