Just curious.

Did someone reckon there was just too many 'complete and utter green bling whore' users or sommat? Coz, now there appears to be just one - jrandom (whorey bugger that he is ;)), the KB user with the highest rep total. Anyway, everyone else has a 'lesser' bling message now depending on how much bling they have. Just curious what the new values are, i.e. do you have to have 15,000 bling points to be a complete and utter green bling whore now, or something?

Kind of makes this FAQ post (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/faq.php?faq=kb_site_rep_faq1#faq_kb_site_rep_faq_1 6) in need of an update :yes:

Sad bastard #3 = Deviant Esq

But yes, achieving complete and utter bling whore was way to easy so I changed the values and waited to see how long it took for people to notice. Third person after 1 week and 1st one to think it's actually important enough to make a public post about.

User is an unknown quantity at this point 0
User is on a distinguished road 16
User will become famous soon enough 32
User has a spectacular aura about 64
User is a jewel in the rough 125
User is just really nice 250
User is a glorious beacon of light 500
User is a name known to all 1000
User is a splendid one to behold 2000
User has much to be proud of 4000
User has a brilliant future 8000
User has a reputation beyond repute 16000
User is just a complete and utter green bling whore 32000

Was just curious, so I thought I might as well ask! Thanks for clearing that up. So, Mr Random has over 32000 bling points. Holy shit! :eek5:

Right, back to the L.O.A. forum I go... :bleh:

So were you guys too lazy to fix the bling bar as well?

Anyway, someone may be sad enough to post about it - some may be sad enough to care enough about it to actually put work into changing it ;)

Oh, and Mr. jrandom runs a bling ring - no wonder he can influence the market so. :no:

There isn't a setting in the preferences to change the bling bar and I can't be arsed fiddling the source.

Well aware that there are bling rings running. If having the most green is that important to people that they'd bother organising this sort of thing then good for them. Means Jack Shit to me but seems to be important to others so meh.

Aww, go on, *you're* the cute one! ;)

Bling rings eh? Is that kind of like an anus with bling? I would like a diamond encrusted one, where do I sign up?!

Well apparantly I could put coal up my arse and it may or may not come out sparkling, so if I produce any diamonds, I'll give you one sweets.

Indeed. I reckon I should have enough for a new FJR1300.

Why abandon powers of two after only four steps?

:confused:

For what it's worth, I have rejected the ways of the circle-jerk bling whores. These days, I accept only bling from the heart.

Bling from the heart? C'mon... you know I'm only giving you bling in exchange for sexual favours and perhaps rides on Betty, right? Right? :confused:

You're only saying that because you're losing.

:bleh:

I would favour a mass reset to zero, though. Watching the struggle for ascendancy to 'most loved' status as all started from a level playing field would be most amusing.

Actually, that would but lots of fun. How's about that for a suggestion? Only, maybe reset everone to a bling total of 1, so you can still be a senior member - you need to have a positive rep to be one.

No, but Mental Pants does have an odd sense of humour, which I hope to appeal to in due course.

What a fucken joke, why dont you just make the announcement and do it without making a issue of it by adding it to the home page. Do you think by clearing them up it will unstablise the site to the extent of a public outcry? They are not a big deal really! I thought the whole 'Poll' thing was pisstaking time waster but seems like its a matter of life or death.

Thus speaks the man with an undue emotional attachment to his current rep point total!
