Okay, you have gained AP's for crying about losing them, but this will not work in the future. Crying about AP's is really the worst thing to do. Learn from the negative AP's and try not to do things that get you assigned AP's and then remember some people here can tend to be idiots and assign AP's (good or bad) for no reason and there is nothing we can do except take it and deal with it. This is a free to use forum what do you expect?
Well since you, Info Tech Geek, were the one who gave me the Negative Anti-Points which prompted me to start this thread. How come you did not post a solution to my question??? Instead you give me negs and say the post is old when it is not! You seem to have a problem with me since day one, post one. What is the problem? Do you always treat newbies this way?
Then you say:
"Learn from the negative AP's and try not to do things that get you assigned AP's and then remember some people here can tend to be idiots and assign AP's (good or bad) for no reason and there is nothing we can do except take it and deal with it"
Are you calling yourself an Idiot?? Because I know the points were not deserved. The moderator said the points were not deserved and mostly everyone else has been supportive. There are other forums I have never had this kind of trouble before?!?
I still dont know if I want to stay here or not. I dont like this points system. Too many chiefs and not enough indians. I still feel that the moderator should be the only one with the power to ban.

Well, that's just one of the many flaws of the AP system. Not every neg is "deserved" and not every "pos" is deserved. For instance, you can give an idiot an 11dot account and he may neg everyone here for whatever they post. It's certainly not a perfect process. On one hand I see the AP's as a way of moderation, then again, I think we could all live without them.

I don't think it is a flaw, from this individuals reaction I think he may have prompted this. As you can see he will not let this go and he seems to have received plenty of AP's from this thread. I have a feeling he must have lashed back at the individual after the AP's and the other individual may have also lashed back with negs.
However, Techbill this is turning into a flame thread and is considered a personal attack on an individual and can often lead to a lot of headaches. I would just stop while your ahead.
I dont have anything against you but you can leave whenever you want to. Nobody'll miss you.Quote:

And you have been here what? less than a month now, and you complain about AP's and say we don't need them. How do you know we don't need them, you haven't been here that long. And stop bitching about AP's. Who cares if somebody gets banned, create another account and correct your mistakes from the previous one, or if you get banned for no reason, create another account and start posting again, it's not like you get something for keeping one account or having many posts.
People will not learn to stop crying if others give the positive points. I have noticed there are a lot of nice people out there that will give positive AP's to shut someone up, but it only encourages them.
