I'll save you all the trouble....
while trying to isolate the servers performance for a better FT experience for you all i came upon this thread. Really what we had in mind, in case you haven't come across it, the reputation is designed only for The Coupon Connection forum to help members who may find themselves engaged in a trade or exchange with another member they don't know. You may or may not appreciate this but just in case, I'm going to have to take this thread down.
One thing about reputations - no rating in the world will likely change the reputation you earn by the quality of the posts you start... and contribute to.
=================================
Thank you. No offense intended, and your good intentions noted and appreciated, but we have seen this post by Mr Petersen three times now. It doesn't answer the questions/opinions posted in this thread, and it hasn't stopped the point parade, nor the controversy. It was about the 'point conga', and why he closed it. No one is questioning his decision on that.
But as long as people
can use this feature outside the CC, they (we?)
will use it, with mostly harmless but meaningless results.
So far, the result has been a broad spectrum of experiences, from happy point collectors and point philanthropists
, (I got another anonymous post today related to this thread!) to angry retaliation and paranoid suspicion.
None of which has anything to do with the CC. Until the system is restricted to the CC, and has user accountability, it ain't nuthin' but a point party y'all.
