My thoughts.
Rep isn't what it used to be. Its a game now, back in the day (lol) it was a badge of pride. Recognition for a job well done, for participation and trying to improve the board, sharing with members information you've come across. A boost so to speak to continue to bring good to the board.
Sometime ago when I first came back I saw new people rise so fast in rep with a huge 15 post count of "Wow shes hot", "Cool links"
![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
and the rest of their time in games. Sadly I saw rep for what it had become then.

At that point was when I requested on the board to be repped with a comment on my post, not for the sake of rep. I have been cussed out in PM for not spreading fast enough. My response was "I don't rep just to spread. Contribute somewhere besides games and maybe I will." I even got a PM saying until I rep them I receive no more from them. lmao Wow, what a threat!. The worst was after being attacked on the board recently by a member in MOTW who said he had given me rep and I walked over him and never acknowledged him or repped back, that I "walked all over him". Rep system does have bugs apparently also, I
never received good or bad rep from that member in my eyes/in my rep box. A screen shot I sent proved it. I wanted to know if he indeed had repped me. Although it showed
he did to a mod. Doesn't matter, he did
bad rep me then though and "took my rep back bitch" lol Many still continued to just rep so they could spread, honestly though I did receive most from posts members thought good.
Anyway, like in my thank you thread to all the members. I do hope everyone continues to take a moment to rep those they feel contribute and rep good posts they put up. Not just rep to spread. I guess this will be my only post in here also. Good posting to all.
