all you rep addicts could just implement your own rep system, sure it would be more work and it would be even less reliable than the old system but that would make it a new source of flaming which is good... errr
anyway each time you would have normaly just clicked on the rep button to rep somone you now either make a new post or send the person a pm with the words: I give you one green rep! or fuck you take this red one!
so the person recieving this message has a line in his sig that goes: "Rep Points: 20052" and if he gets a green one ge just increases the number to 20053 and if he gets a red one he makes it 20051
too much work? yeh certainly but i know some people here don't have a life anyway...
