    Well Ok. I was just wondering if anybody thinks the rep system is being abused by player haters AKA losing team or teammates that dislike because you always kill the other team leaving no one for them to kill.

    For Example.
    There was a guy on my team that was getting annoyed with another guy always taking a sniper rifle even though he does the job and always manages to kill the other team. So we end up winning. And I turn off the Xbox and take a shower. Come back and notice that someone thought I was being agressive. I didn't do anything wrong it's not like I was host and could stop the guy from taking a weapon that you wanted.

    I think this is really annoying. I don't want others to look at me thinking I'm not great because of my gamertag. This happened three times already and I'm kinda getting annoyed myself.

    Anyone else ever been in dumb situation like this please share :wub:

    And yes rep is very important to me =]

    ......................rep doesnt matter for ----. the only person who will ever see it is you unless you get below i think 40% then your stars on your gamer card start to go away. im 60% and 40% but thats mostly cause im a douche bag. the only time i give bad rep if they are honestly a douche bag and are trash talkin and ---- or if they quit in the middle of a game of gears which pisses me off so ------ing much. but other than that i dont ever give bad rep. good rep on the other hand i give to people who dont bitch even if i just killed them in the most ridiculous way imaginable and also to people who even after a team mate or two leaves stays and finishes the game. im going to be honest and say that most of the community on xbl is a bunch of douche bags but i mean there are cool people to so w/e. i think that rep is pretty pointless since you have to try to get below 40%. :P

    Rep doesn't do anything at all, not even the rep stars are affected. I have like 70% bad but that doesn't mean 70% of everyone you've played hate you. It just means that like out of the thousands of people you played with, only 10 people bothered to use it and 7 people hated you because you pwned them.
    I don't even know why it's there. No games actually use the rep system for matches.
