I hate that about some sites. Over at Audio Review forums, some of those guys are total rep points whores :roll

My understanding is there will be no post counts or rep points both of which become a competition thing.

Correct. PE was created to level the "playing field" of prog fandom. We never felt tenure mattered when it came to being a fan or a member so it would be wrong to create a rep system within PE. Trust me, some of us have reps anyway. :lol Plus, we tried this once where you could see how much each person posts and it created a an urge to post more to bolster your position. That isn't our speed so we will pass.

FWIW, I love this about the way this place is moderated.

Thank goodness, that is so freakin' cheesy and PE is my cyber Home and I'm pretty happy with what's going on here.

Yep, very pleased to read this. The AR site tracks post counts as well and there are members who post-bomb every forum (of which there are many).

I like that everyone's post counts read: 0. PE - keeping us all newbs since 2012. :)

If we had rep points than anytime Lino farted he'd get a half dozen. It just wouldn't be fair.

You're just afraid that you wouldn't get any. :p

I never really understood the whole rep point thing. Who cares.

Here, I might would have a negative rating ;)

I always thought the seniority thing and point awarding was so high school - so are some of the forums for that matter. Most of the guys who stick to the RR forum have so few points; its obvious that RR never cared about that stuff.
