What in blazes is going on here ... ?

[Wryan]

Wryan doesn't exist to me unless he has his iconic avatar.

/sniff sniff

Got my old avatar back, but file's too big to keep it animated. Plus it's a little pixelly.

Someone explain reputation.

This page should hopefully answer any questions you have.

Just scroll halfway down the page. There's also a bit about it in the previous pages. Any other questions just let me know.

I'm leaving.

Okay. Now you're back.

Welcome back.

Don't worry, Wats more than makes up for my inadequacies in this area.

Yeah, it's still a little odd and confusing. Is it basically a glorified way to keep track of post counts? And what does negative rep really do?

[MadMan]

With Llopin also returning (if for only a brief time) and Wryan popping up maybe Father Barry will also somehow resurface.

Any time you really like a post, you can rep that person. If you really dislike a post, you can negative rep them. Basically, no one ever negative reps anyone unless they're a troll. Underneath your avatar you'll see your rep power. Yours is currently zero. It will go up to 1 when you reach 50 posts. At that point, any time you rep someone you add 1 point to their rep points. If you negative rep someone you subtract 1 point from their rep points. The more you post and the more rep you receive, the faster your rep power will increase.

It's basically a fun way of sending someone a little note about a post you liked that they posted, because when you rep someone, you can attach a little note with it, and they can read the notes in their User CP.

[MadMan]

KF hit the nail on the head.

Also Wryan if you check out your User CP you'll note that you have received 16 points worth of rep. I gave you 2 points last night because I have 2 points to give. So does KF and anyone else above 400 posts.

In other words you should suck up to anyone above 400 posts

[Boner M]

Oh wait, I recognise that av! I saw you in the FDT often. Back in my innocent 'Bone Machine' days.

Proper welcome, Wryan!

[monolith94]

Cool to see you around, wryan, even if it is only fleeting. Still, such fleeting moments are no less sweet.

K. So it makes a bit more sense.

Suck up huh!? Oh me oh my! We shall see! We shall see.

How delicate, such words of ineffable gentility; they whisper through my ears and eyes as the spectral feathers of doves and nightowls.

...

Hiya mono. Hope you're doing well.

Good to hear.

As for the rep whoring, it is sort of frowned upon in these parts. Which is why Wats made a thread about the greatest things ever, which was pretty much whoring for rep :P

It was, however, a great thread.

[MadMan]

I'd say it was a good one. His final choices were a pretty mixed bag.

Never leave.

Proper greetings, Wry Dry Matchcut Guy. I'm Earendil The Mariner from RT (and several other places) hiding behind the slightly less geeky acronym. Good to see the old avatar back.

Oh, and... ritch:

Heh, if you ever find my Ratatouille review you're going to hope I'm doing less well!

[Sxottlan]

Hell, Wryan was around RT when I signed up there like 6 years ago.

He was around back from before the jump gate accident. Back when this place was just an outpost.*

How high on the producer totem pole are you? Calling any major shots?

Depends on the day. Some days I can tell someone I want to carry something live or do this or that. Other days, there are supervisors with seniority who can make that call. Some days I'm perfectly content to let others still call the shots.

Hope the trip was fruitful, or at least relaxing.

I had a blast! Visited Tombstone. They love the Val Kilmer movie down there. Lots of amateur artwork done on canvases and t-shirts of scenes and lines from the film everywhere you look. I was thinking they better watch out or else Disney is going to sue and buy up the whole town.

Also revisited the places from my youth. Some changed drastically and some did not. A real nostalgia trip, but I was glad to go. It had been years since I last went and finally was making enough to afford to go by myself.

Drove around listening to a custom disc with Ennio Morricone's music from OUATITW on it. Seemed appropriate.

I sat down with my dad last night to watch that one. He hadn't seen it before. Still holds up, yeah boy.
