I guess nobody is correlating the fact that just this week, right AFTER BarfBash, MikeT was getting neg repped for his "pink" pictures, even though he clearly described the reasons in the first BarfBash Pic thread... Which then led several (including myself) to pos rep him for taking the pics/ posting/ starting the thread...
So if you were one of the douches that neg repped him, thank you so much jerk-off.
I lost count. Were you one of my negative rep bitches who I would pimp slap just for the fun of it? You would PM me back and tell me how much of a bad man I am. Then you would rep me back and I would lose sumthin' like 2 pts.I'm really going to miss slapping you bitches around..
(Oh please give me my bitch-slappin system back" ! Maybe you should be, like, a rapper)
Don't kid yourself, a certain BARFer who once had many red squares then reached 11 green squares probably had more to do with it.So if you were one of the douches that neg repped him, thank you so much jerk-off.

I think you may be closer to truth !!!
I'm pretty sure thats not the reason !!!
LOL, check your PMSes.. yea, no typo. I haven't sent you any personal messages at all.
Exactly, it's all laid out in your quote, it is because of people like you that the system got removed. You were abusing it... It just shows how hung up you were on that wank-system
However I have gotten some messages from seasoned members and a mod who I wouldn't think would get upset... at least it was to their credit that they didn't neg me back. Now it should all show them that they all cried over nothing, the system is gone.
Not really, but post counts were also acting as a fake reputation system back in the day.
For example, you're a brand new user...just joined BARF today...and your first post is a question about motorcycle maintenance. You get two quick answers that are conflicting, would you be naturally inclined to give the benefit of the doubt to a user with 846[1] posts, or the guy with 14,398[2] posts?
I worry that new users might assume, consciously or subconsciously, that the user who's been here longer and participated more (i.e. the one with a higher post count) would be more informed and trustworthy. That thought makes me shudder.

instead of rep count or post count, have an ignore list count ... for example
Good riddance
The only advantage I can see from the rep system is the easy identification of the idiots/assholes on the board.
I did find it amusing that every mildly attractive female had a full compliment of little green squares, even though many of them have only been here for a few months. I wonder why??
