View Full Version : The Experiment

Lately, some of you may have noticed that I haven't been anywhere near TAO (and the others probably didn't care). In light of my abscence the forums, I would like to volunteer myself to be the test subject of the following experiment: what descriptions are applied to people with severely negative reputations? Looking at the member list, the ones at the far end have "taks liek this ore sumthing" and "must have screwed something up real good". Noone has been repped below that. Since I'm not going to be using the forums much anyway and I'm someone at least a few people will listen to, I'm the perfect candidate.
So what I need from you, the reader, is to neg me at least once every few months (thats how often I expect to be posting. Things probably wont vary from that plan, but who knows, eh?). I will then attempt to record all levels of neg rep in this post.
What is known so far:
1. has a little shameless behaviour in the past
2. can only hope to improve
3. taks liek this ore sumthing
4. must have screwed something up real good
If people see my reputation change as the experiment progresses, it would be helpful if you posted it here (if it isnt already noted) so that I don't miss it. It will be easy for me to miss something, since I don't plan to check frequently.

It doesn't feel right negging a good person for no reason. :dry:

The reason is to find out what the neg messages are. This seems like plenty good reason to me. And what makes you think I'm a good person? I'm an asshole, trust me. Well, I guess I can't expect the new people to do favors for someone they don't know :rolleyes:

Why the hell is everyone asking to be negged today??? :dry:

Well you did make the thing at the top of the screen that calculates damage. I don't use it, but I think it's neat!

I don't see anything more negative than 3 in the member list. Maybe he was forcibly escorted out of the forums? >.>

How I am different from "them".
1. I am generally not going to be using the forums
2. I will be reviving this thread once a month or so for rep cycles
3. I will continue this experiment for a substantial amount of time
4. The results of this will be recorded for everyone's benefit

It won't work unless you get Jeff, Warcow and several other high rep people to neg you.

Neg away!
Hey, now your down to 2g.
I'll neg you as much as you want.

Visit more often, if only to check this ^^

Why don't we just do this with fairplay? He's already down to three red boxes or something

Why does this at all?
Didn't tutu, the rep whore, find a certain list with all the descriptions and the needed rep?
Or can't we just asked Glamdring, who (I think) made the new descriptions?

Sigh. Why are you people so obstinate? It's not like this requires a lot of effort on your part -.-

Thanks for the compliment.
And why abyaly? Jeffery has an account that he is inviting everyone to neg.

Aby, the record has already been hit, at one point thash got a light red box. Though if you want to be negged I'll go ahead and do it.

Or at least tried to. But then netjak all of a sudden got the idea of posing him back up. :dry:

My mother always told me never to neg strangers (he was prior to my time).
Guys, please rep me every time you see my nick. I dont care about rep at all, I just want to know which titles are there above Jeff, that's all. Thanks for cooperation :)

Well, since its for a good cause...

The next title on from "must have screwed up something real good" is "infamous around these parts" and thats the last neg title. Fairplay and Thash both hit it, with 5 and 6 red boxes.

Man, people suck. I don't know why I bothered going to glam's new IRC, which was a spectacular failure with a grand total of 1 (or was it 2?) new people. I don't think it was worth it to post on the forums again, either. I think this is going to be my last post here.
*edit for clarification. here = these forums.

It seems other people are offering perfectly logical and more reasonable ways to gain the information you seek, especially since you won't even be here enough to truly run this "experiment". So I can't help but ask you the same question. I've installed hacks for phpBB2 before, along with having a variety of admin/mod duties. The information you want can simply be looked up by the right people. Perhaps you should look into other methods of acquiring that knowledge before necro-ing a dead thread every month just to get neg bombs. It just seems like there are easier and better ways.
Just my two cents.

Aby's kind of right.. sure you can do all those things..but wouldn't you rather SEE someone with that reputation?
Also..whats the point in arguing over it? Its pretty simple, click on the bar and neg him..it takes a grand total of 2 seconds -- much less time than it does to formulate and type an argument against it.

Because it's stupid.
Abyaly may be new to this whole rep thing because he was gone such a long time, but the rest of us aren't.
Threads like these have been created a billion times, and it has been asked and done before this a billion times. It grows old, very old. It's just stupid.
It's exactly like asking people to beat you so you can get the lowest stats ever. That got old as well, just as this has gotten old.
But hey, that's just my opinion..

It wasn't so much an experiment as us just not liking anything he had to say.

It DOES TOO!! I have to click my mouse like, what? 3 times? That's just crazy talk.

Well actually first it was an experiment, but it was on T3 Terminator, not Thash. Thash got down there all on his own.
I'll bump you down if you want though, aby. Mine should knock you down into the red all on its own, and then once people see the red box they're like "OMG THIS PARSONIS TERRRRIBLE!!!1!1@ MUST NEGG!"
Sergiy, you rep whore :rolleyes:

Only 6551, I haven't gotten much rep for a very long time.
Then again, I've been posting pretty sparingly the last little while, and most of my posts go unnoticed.
I know I'll never break that top 4 strangle hold :)
