I feel that time barring AP assignments will only bring that process into real time, and will create more "victims", as posts that normally would not be negged, will be.
Excellent idea about the Karate Kid message. What you said is true, it's encouraged me to look around for people to neg before. I normally don't neg people, but that message causes me to. And what you said about my idea causing people to just start negging people whos current posts wouldn't normally be negged is probably true. I hadn't thought of that at all, but you're right. Perhaps your idea is more what I'm looking for. Thanks!

We all make mistakes. I try my best, but not everyone has liked what I've posted before. Just trying to be helpful here.

Well, one thing you'll learn quick around here is that you can't please everyone. Some people will be determined not to like you no matter what you do. However, as long as you generally try to contribute, you'll never get enough negs to actually do you any harm, as the rest of us will be supporting your good efforts. So, I really wouldn't worry about those threads. It's rare anyone gets negged for an old thread anyway.

ugh im sorry horrible suggestion. what if someone benefits from your year old post and wants to give you greenies. for another, if you said something dumb it can only be negged enough until it is closed.

I see where he is coming from with this idea, but after reading the posts I must agree.."If it ain't broke it don't need fix" I know I haven't been around to see much of the changes but I'm sure that the JUPM staff are working long and hard to improve this site in any way possible, but ideas like this aren't the type that they should be wasting their time on because APs are just .gifs and will remain that (at least untill they make us 3d glasses for the computer :O then they'll be 3D gifs :p).

I didn't read any part of this thread except the first post so it's probably been said. I go through a lot of old posts and when I see somethin really good I green it. I vote nay.
