I don't care for the whole "Rep" thing nobody gives any outside of their circle of friends so who gives a fug?
Cool thread though not many people know about "Rep power".
Actually I have about 2 friends on this site and several acquaintances. I think I have 7 on my friends list, Where the hell have you other 5 been??
There is some truth to what you say about select groups, but as a whole most repped threads have some unique aspect to them that gets a lot of attention.
The top 20 on the site have enough that people will thank just on some off chance that they will recieve a rep tap from a big hitter.
It makes their Rep Bat even bigger and that cycle continues.
I often thought that D.T. could do a thread title that said Boo and Body that said Who and get a TOTW and 500 points. He never would do that and realizes that it has just become a condition for him to deal with. It's really not his fault and if you ever looked at his message page you would see that he responds to hundreds of requests per month.
I was never one to figure how to get into the IN clique , but what happens with them is not Boosting, It is just a fact of life.
It starts in school and never really changes throughout life.
You make a couple of good friends and you are ahead of the curve in my opinion.
Some form of public reconigition is nice and required here, but the real value of being noticed comes from the PM's and post comments.
There is nothing better than getting a nice message from someone saying they like you or a post you did. At least when you are on a forum..
Real life Family and friends is what really matters in life, but this can be a place to have friendships as well.
Sorry for the length, Think I just had a brain fart :O
