Reputations

[Bêthberry]

I was just so gosh darned frustrated last night. As soon as I or Child deleted one of Immasamurai's posts or threads, he'd start up another and there wasn't an Admin in sight. Lal was so right about the uselessness of PMing him. So, I decided to negative rep him because, well, as other have said here, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to nether side of our repuptation system.

But it wasn't our troll who was the most frustrating. No! It was the failsafe system of our rep system.

It was so frustrating not to be able to give every one of his posts their rightful due attention! (We have to rep another 10 people before we can rep the first person again.) Nice to see others have come up with the same idea!

So, an important question to you all: shall I undelete his threads in Rohan so everyone has more posts to negative rep? Shall we have a bit of sport with this fellow?

Apparently on IGN there is a name for this kind of spamming. It's called "rioting." I think that is a very fascinating use of the word--evidence of how the internet has inspired linquistic creativity!
