Frunk Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 As everything seems to becoming less and less sought after, what is worth the most on the forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 none... you can be a great member, without a lot of reps or posts you can also be well known around the forum without any of them just look at me for example... it took me six months to get to 1000 posts... and im an recognized member on the forum today... therefore... im putting im choosing OTHER... and what i think is worth the most on the forum? knownign other members... havign friends and such... no need for competetion in points, posts or reps... and i can stand by this theory... just do something that helps the forum... make a great set, or just do something that helps... sorry.. but now im just blabbering on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God GAK Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Azuh is right. A forum, isn't a place to become more competitive. it is made to entertain you and to let you make friends that you would never have made before. so, please edit the poll frunk and add friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frunk Posted January 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 So basically popularity is the key? I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuh Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 So basically popularity is the key? I agree. i agree on that part its just that popularity can branch out from these things... such as GAK for having 347 Reps... one of the highest people to have so much rep... thats how he became popular XD Plus... also if your a mod... you ahve a higher popularity rating than members to... cause your more well known XD Im still sticking by what i said in the second post...

Lucas Maximus Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Well i, unlike others, think it is really important to have a lot of each, it shows you are a hard-working, trust worthy member.I really work hard with my ponts and posts but unfurunatly, i need to work on my reps, lol.In the poll i voted 'reps'.

II DEFiiNED II Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Well, I am glad to say that I have more reps that thel amazing, Frunk. Yes, I said it, the Frunk! And I agree with GAK. Although I don't think it really matters, but if I were to say, I would probably say posts. Because when you see a 1, or 2 star member, and compare them to an Elite or Legendary, its a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long live FRUNK!!! by the way what did you do while you were away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankee Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I don't think it is post, reps, or anything like that. I think that it is good to be a good friend. I talk to my friends on this site, andhelp them whenever they want it. I think that that is most important to me. sry, i'm just wierd at times, but it is what I think.

Kizzi Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 All, but mostly posts (total of all of the forums they visit). Generally the more posts, the more experienced the member. However, I'm not saying there isn't any exceptions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusei Fudou Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Definitely not having a lot of reps, GAK as an example. xD (j/k) But I think being respective and nice, not abusing, is the most worth thing on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I didn't want to pick outher so I picked posts. The main reson is because the others mean nothing.Points are very easy to get and reps truely do mean nothing. God Gak has over 300, he doesn't need more. I don't need more myself. Even with 30 plus rep you know the member is a good member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tkill93 Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 That's worth the most to me is respect and friends. Just because you have reps doesn't make you cool ( They seem to have lost meaning since people started charging them for sigs in shops ), just because you have a lot of posts doesn't mean your important, and having a lot of points means nothing. I could have 0 reps, 0 points, and not have many posts but as long as I have the 2 things stated at the beginning, I'll be happy. I know, many people don't like me, and a lot of other wish I left the forum but that doesn't matter as long as i have my few YCM friends. Respect is something I wont go into because it's a really complicated thing. (I know it's corny lol.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tefached Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Reps, more and more people use them for payment instead of points. so reps are used more often but points are more important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ixigo Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Reputations are only handed out as contest prizes or payment for banners etc, that is why they are not so important. I don't even understand what points do. Number of posts doesn't matter - their quality does. So what am I looking for here? Meh, just to have fun around, talk to a couple of people, make a few friends, debate some things (that is kinda tough with all the spammage nearly every interesting topic receives, but doable)... yeah, those things. I'm not seeking to become... massively popular in these forums, just add my two cents in here and have fun personally. I voted for reputation, because, going by the technical term, reputation doesn't represent what it did end up representing here. Plus, none of the things I mentioned is something I'd "look for" or "pursue", so they didn't really fall under "Other". So I just placed my vote towards what seemed more fitting.

HORUS Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 being the most awesome is definitely most important. i've already got that title easily, with some close contendors, but i intend to hold onto it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodrun Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 as being considered as, one of the new members loland obviously coming in at a bad timei would have liked to reps become what they actually sayreputationand yes reps have gone out and become just things thrown around all diddly daddly, and its really annoying mei mean no offense to GAK, Frunk...(lol jk) or anyone else with 100+ reps =/, JK Rewritebut what im trying to say is (its kinda hard to rephrase what everyone has already said, without saying the same thing over again lol)but falling onto what someone said, about having posts and reps, and points..it is friends, it is popularitybut what it all boils down to, to me, is trustand i mean, are you gonna trust someone, who calls you things on the site, or, who steals things from you? the reps system isnt helping out in this department either, i mean, becuase most of the neg reps given, or for somethig as little as spamming, i mean come on now, and their given out daily, to new members.competitions, shops, or just plain, negsthis is what is ruining the true meaning of points, the true meaning, of reps, and the true meaning of posts.woopy doo, i got 4000+ posts in 2 monthsamong that, (this is what i have been told)i have also made a lot of friends, and have (i hope) proved that i am trust worthy guy, am i right, or am i wrong?i mean, i would like to have these things mean more, believe me i would.and like i said, friends, (the more you have) the more trust you have, and its getting harder and harder to reach out, because of all the new memebrs we get dailyits just ubserd (SP)=/...

Speed Dragon90 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 I think if you have a alot of reps that mean something (Non-Contest reps) I would want that and popularity could be good to, I think probably a mix of both, I used to want points until Card Trade shut down but that was probably for the best.
