    What's a red bling?

    Well, apparently I've got one! Wow, what a response to my first post (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ad.php?t=78470). Who bestowed it upon me and how?! Seems like fun!

    From the FAQ section

    Reputation or "Rep points" are given for witty, intelligent and/or funny posts (or any other reason a member thinks), by clicking on the scales at the top right of the members post.

    Reputation points can be viewed in your User Control Panel ("User CP" at the top of your window)

    When you have become a senior member (140 days and 240 posts) you will be able to view who gave you rep points.


    Red Rep

    Usually it is because someone disagrees with a post of yours. However, you may also receive red rep for starting threads in the wrong place. This is designed to educate members about starting threads in the right place, in order to receive the most help.

    Shit happens, don't let it bother you.

    You will find out after a while... 100 posts I think...not sure. Probably got blinged by the SELLER of the bike you "bought"...keep on posting. All will be revealed...eventually.

    How can you see that Maha? The only way I know my own bling is to click on User Control Panel and I'm not aware of how to see anyone elses.....despite being here for 3 years and having my post count reduced from 1500 or something (mainly Rant and Rave).......grumble grumble.....

    Good job - you've managed to expose yourself as a dick and got a response...

    BTW - check your list... mine has been signed.

    Rep Post Stats......if I click on your user name, your profile comes up and on the far right of the (where it says 'about me/statistics etc) is your rep post stats or sometimes a couple of arrows, click on that and anybody can see how many reds/grenns that user has aquired....

    bling is soposed to be an expression of disagreement for what you "said' (typed)
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    (14 red & 9 green now) personally its all a load of shit, people will red bling yah for the stupidest things and thats not really what it should be used for...


    1. The idea is if in a discussion you truly agree with a statement then you can give a green bling and a reason why.
    2. If you truly believe some one is wrong with a statement or comment (not just because you disagree) then you give a red and a reason why. It should not be use like... You give me a red so I give me one back etc etc etc... thats not what its all about. Do not be abusive to the other member just because you disagree

    Problem on here is people give out the bling willy nilly (both red and green) for no reason at all.

    supposed to be, but as of late I have noticed there are a few small-minded fukwits that like to abuse you through this channel. And just so they feel better might even use the pm button.

    Don't let it bother you if this happens, they have no penis or at the very least a small one - kinda goes with their big obnoxious mouth and their arrogant attitude.


    Its really quite sad when its no-one you actually know nor have ever met. But I guess when you do meet - they will remember you . . .
    It is what it is

    But but but....when you give a red rep the little box comes up and says thanks for blinging this post. May you be lucky to receive the same in return....or sommat like that.

    Must admit to blinging willy nilly.
