    well yeah i dont know .... i admit i use to say cred or rep if use plz

    but it was just to let people know if they liked it or were using it they can give a sign of appreciation by rep OR creds .... not for rep whoring or some kind of ...

    and whats with al those little banners here on GR (like RESPECT , NO MORE HENTAI and ASK FOR CREDS , blablabla ) jeez its getting kinda political here :unsure:

    ok i am not making a bad statement here but the credits here only go so far in the shop,by that there is only so much you can buy and alot of stuff i would not try to buy (stealing money one).what can one do when he has over 700 credits?the rep system shows the the person has a good attitude and makes good work and if that is not enough to earn it then i do not know what is.i do however do not see it as a reward for a victory in battle


    if i make a sig i always post that a + rep is not mandatory but appeciated
    and that means if they want to.i earn mine by making sigs and tutorials.
    i find that more appealing than credits. because i have so many credits that i know i will not spend.

    lets stop rep on sig battles but if people want to ask for rep for the hard earn product seems to be not a problem the problem is the ones who do it for no reason like buddy rasing buddy..it does not affect the function of the forums and shows a communtiy working together to improve the overall
    status of its members?

    i like the idea but a rebellious stand would cause the appeal of the ones doing it much greater cause they know it gets to the ones trying to stop it.

    i would like to see the ones who earn them earn them and the ppl who do not get - rep for every one they get that in my mind is more brutal than any flashy sig would ever be

    I don't need to be sent creds by the way, I think this is a very good idea because it really aggravates me when I see people asking for rep..

    that is really annoying.
    if you see that, use the report button.
    posting that would get them a warning for rep abuse.

    if the abuse continues or gets worse, the rep system will loose its value
    and perhaps even removed in the next skin
