I know! that proves my point. if someone is killing there fish I'm gonna negative mark it. if someone acts to good for someone else I'm gonna negative mark it. if someone is an A hole I'm gonna negative mark it. at the same time I positively marked things that are beneficial even if its from the same members who I've negatively marked before. i have nothing against anyone on this site.


I guess you and I are marking things for different reasons.
I'm marking things that are clutter (easily googled or looked up in common books) negatively.
I'm marking thoughtful posts that contribute to a healthy forum positively.
Tone of the author means nothing to me as far as the reputation system is concerned.

Please be part of the solution and not the problem in regards to the reputation system and use it as carefully as you would a new topic or post.

for one...this thread has all kinds of -
http://forum.nanfa.o...h__1#entry78605

granted some are wrong IDs...but then you have bruce going in there and not contributing at all (no offense) and he doesnt get - marked...then i edited my statement (since you cant delete a post) and changed it to PM sent and im negatively marked...whats so negative about saying PM sent lol. then Uland in another thread to ken said PM sent...no - there. so you see my point? its not across the board being applied. and when the thread starter post pics and posted what he caught and asks for an ID he is - marked. and that continues throughout that whole thread. thats when sample.

im on over 11 various forums and I've seen this rep come and go on all but 1 of them. it never lasts. i get the moderating itself thing but at the same time it's like ok people dont like a post like that then I'm not gonna bother posting at all.

i do keep hearing about the nazi mods. what was that about? i think ive seen one theard deleted here since ive been here (tglassburner situation). and maybe a few posts with swears. out of all the forums im on (phone, music, movies, downloading, fish ect)this forum has needed very little modding compared to any of them. and thats hats off to a great membership.




and now ill edit this post to point out the - in here. everything i said was true. and i showed proof.


Yup, lots of reputation activity in that topic. Probably since it became active around the time the system was also activated. As far as lots of negative marks...I'm not a mind reader but it's possible the topic is not really a trip report since no flavor is provided and might be better suited for the picture forum? Perhaps ID forum?

The comment Bruce made was funny - sort of inside forum humor. I can see why he didn't get a mark from longtime forum goers.
My "PM sent" comment without negative marks. Most people expect mods/staff to reply in this fashion so the forum community is made aware they are not or will not be ignored. Sort of common courtesy reply.
Your negative mark for "PM sent" comment ...maybe applied before you edited your post? Maybe the mark was placed since it was considered clutter. I don't see that you were called out specifically for a question in private.

Look Bumpy...You have to realize that maybe you're being singled out a bit with negative marks since you are regularly a top daily poster blowing the next person away by double or even more post counts per day. The membership here simply aren't used to that level of posting and will not likely warm up to that level of activity anytime soon. I can't change that since it's hard to post that much and keep content in kind with what people here expect.

You're right, the membership here is great and made this a great forum. NANFA members are also a rather sensitive lot and don't like us mods messing with stuff :tongue: It seems any time we "do something" we have to spend days explaining ourselves. Out of respect to the membership, we oblige. We'd rather be out fishing than explaining why we deleted a post or implemented a system to reduce clutter.

thats fair enough. but i post good stuff for the most part. i comment on peoples things and try and help out as best as i can. i comment on the peoples things that the "older nanfa members" wouldnt bother with. its not like im like "nice pic" i post cause i am learning and teaching and i have the time to do it. people should be grateful that im answer the questions or responding to the the topics that are "below them" or "not smart enough". i said i would be the guy that handles the "noobs" questions. i will admit ive been brought up in the " i need it now" world. having a blackberry and in 2 days the new droid makes it even easier to post. half the time i post on here im out in the field taking a break. every time someone comments in a thread where i posted im notified. and yes im still very much "in love" with this hobby and have an excitement for it and i express that by contributing. i think we should be more focused on quality and not how many posts i have. all my posts outside of this topic are very good posts or posts with good information. thats what should matter...not how much i post.
