The groan system has been changed, again. Due to the massive amount of bitching from members being groaned and the massive amount of misusing the groan feature, groans now produce -0 rep. Groans will also not show up on your rep wall anymore.

Thanks for taking time to read this update and enjoy your stay on NGU. :PBJ:

Isn't the purpose of having moderators to keep our forums clean?

Are you high?
Well at least you can still groan to show you didn't like the post. Also people who post pointless and stupid shit aren't "invincible" just because you can't -rep someone doesn't mean you can't have less respect for them or think of them differently. So in a way there are consequences and there is always the report post button on the bottom left of a post.

Rep should never go down, just be able to go up. Because people post really good topics, just like Dopey has done. So they deserve rep if members like it...

Also how ironic that one member has groaned at this USEFULL post, hmmm

I can't express how stupid this is... So ppl bitch at something that I feel (PS this is my opinion im not trying to say this is what should be done) is a necessary part of NGU YET mods bend over and remove the only kind of -rep there was No bend over for the whiny rep whores "OMG'z NoOoOo00 I just lost -3 rep"

Honestly I miss the old rep system back. Giving rep to funny threads was always cool. So was -repping the people who always be posting really stupid shit and coming back to cry to you because you -rep them.....yup I really miss it.

They could do it like this: If a thread/post gets +10 groans, it will get deleted/closed automatically.
