Reputation points -could someone explain

**FROSTY:Me** · 23rd January 2005, 21:05

Im trying to figure out how this rep points thing works now.
It seems that some folks have got huge rep all of a sudden.
How did that happen ?

i had an explanation thing the other day on here but i still didnt understand it and i dont remember where it was, so im kinda wondering the same thing

There was a big flurry of people giving each other point after point, and threads on the subject, etc, that raised general awareness.

Baksheesh was given, back-handers were received, quiet chats were had via MSN, the occasional mildly suggestive PM was sent.

Unfortunately you were otherwise occupied at the time, trying not to slide sideways off cliffs, hiring maids to pick up your coffee cups for you, shopping for walking frames, etc...

On the topic of MSN. I don't know why, but I think my days of "MSN'ing" are over. It probably stems from the fountains of crap you get from people on the net(Not KB, the net in general). I at one time put alot of effort into online friends, and was hurt quite badly once, and haven't bothered since. I find places like this (KB) much more rewarding. I suppose I could get back into it, but only with people on here...

Now, let me dust off the MSN icon, and fire this baby up to see who's online...

Suddenly having any rep seems - well a bit silly?

I was thinking about that today. Ya know It constantly amazes me how many good freinds there are in this biking community.
I think we are insulated a lot from the shite that normally happens in net communities
