Okay, so some reason, I can't rep anyone. The buttons to do so aren't there. I have a positive rep, and I haven't repped anyone in almost a week, so any help?

Yes, it is. Or at least, what I meant, because you don't just like somebody for no reason. You like them because of their posts.

Or you may just be friends.

There are people that do this to me, except with my old YouTube channels.

Also, based off of the reputation rules, my "Not everyone can be perfect like you

" downrep to Gohan didn't deserve a warning. There's no rule against "bad reasoning" or sarcasm in downreps.

Pretty sure it is against the rules to leave a downrep with bad reasoning.

Ok, I guess Ghosthawk forgot the rules for that one. Read this

can change their posting habits (if needed) to make better posts.

It says you must have it well detailed, not just some lame one word rep, or an emoticon.

People did that on purpose but yeah...it kinda shouldn't got them.

Tbh I still would've uprepped him under normal circumstances since this post was just great.

But I can see why this is wrong and I probably won't do it again.

Check the guy's reps.

Yeah, that isn't really legit. People most likely uprepped him because the game was fun.

Read the OP. Using this mod, you can uprep/downrep users based on their posts.

At this point, rep has done a lot more harm than it has good. We aren't ready yet, as a community, to handle something like this; it was taken a little bit too seriously and was misused often, and has just caused too much trouble that doesn't need to exist. I have no doubt we will try it again at some point, but that won't be any time soon. It was going to be removed anyway by the time we upgrade to the newest version of phpBB.
