In an attempt to get people to post more, everytime I visit this site I will give reps to some posts that I read. I'm not sure if people even pay attention to reps but I'll try anyway and see what happens.

FYI, checking your rep points, and only finding RIS behind it kind of depletes the whole point.

I don't mean to criticize your idea, it's a good one, but maybe you could add a bit more to the messages then that?

The rep is for participation - not for the actual post. So if I left a comment that said, "Here's a rep for participation". If you participate alot all your rep comments would all say that. Perhaps that is unwanted. Basically its hard to think up something unique to write each time.

The alternative would be to just leave no comment. Like how digg and youtube works with their system.

Since I haven't thought up a solution to this problem yet, I will leave the rep scheme on hold for now.

Now I feel guilty. I caused the collapse of the RIS.

I lol'd. RIS almost sounds like IRS.

Its no big deal. Cool

Haha, if I caused the collapse of that, I wouldn't feel too guilty.

Okay, I'm glad! Smile
