Anything that limits cheesy rep is only going to be better for the forum, less crappy WSO's posted and more informational techniques ... people giving up their better secrets and tricks and explaining what works best for themselves.

Rep comes into play when you start deciding who you want to give your $ to, or who you want to JV with ... people posting stolen/copyrighted content and trying to take the credit for themselves does skew the rep system.

SO, m0g0l, everybody knows about this guy, he did a lot for this Forum, he saved for us $**** or more for each of us. I never had any QUESTION about his REP and Thanks Number...

That isn't rep. m0g0l isn't reputable because he stole people's content all day long. If you stuck valuable secrets on your FTP server, would you give m0g0l access to it if he promised to not share it with anyone else? No, you wouldn't. Because his reputation is extremely horrible (you know he will steal it and share it). Being thankful for a contribution and considering someone reputable are two different things.

I neg rep when I see this. It's only fair.

Yep I do the exact same thing. I hate when people give rep for no reason at all. Never give rep unless it's earned.

I'll agree with you in exchange for +rep...

I only kid

I see this way too often especially in the DL section. I have seen people reply to their share saying something like "200 views and only 3 thanks and no rep, I'm gonna remove the link if people don't thank and rep me soon!". Guess what guys, I make a mental note of who you are when I see that...

Same this is happening in Main BH SEO Section. There should a rule for this case like temporary ban for few days.

i also just -repped and reported the guy with the facebook blaster pro serials.
asks for thanks and rep and pm.
these people should be banned permantly.
because when they care so much about getting high reputation then maybe they plan something shady.

 

[bluesaphire]

Hell no

i want to ask one question
if some one get banned when he is new on forum and not much aware of rules does it restricted him from opening sales thread when he come back after suspencion ?

 

[mohitjmehta]

no rep system is good who are telling its bad its your concern . all problem is some noobs who are doing it wrong way .rep must be earned ,not be bagged

 

[lostgringos]

People here get caught up with the small stuff. Who cares! Get over it. Your rep here means very little. This BHW! Not everyone plays nice.

I am confused. I thought BHW was about exactly what m0g0l was doing. He gave some great shares to the whole BHW community. Why was he banned?

He was banned because he was sharing BHW Jr VIP stuff (tha place where you and I can't go in yet!) at his own forum. And sharing BHW content is not allowed by the rules.

 

[WhoWhatWhereX]

Thanks - I just did a search "m0g0l banned" and found the thread about his banning. What a shame. I thought I really liked the guy. Bummer. He had awesome shares in the downloads section.

Wolf in sheep's clothing I guess.

I have a hangover, can someone please rep me so I can feel better. J.k

I agree with you 7878, such an easy name for my hangover right now.

m0g0l got banned because he was ripping content he shouldn't from BHW and constructing his own forum with the info. Meanwhile he posted content here with alterior motives (to build more rep to get access to better content to post).

This thread was started to point out how lame it is to try your hardest to rack up thanks and rep by posting other people's WSOs or lists that took you all of 10 seconds to copy/paste from somewhere else and farm up your rep count with it. It's assumed people who are doing that have something in mind for abusing that rep in the future.

If someone posts a WSO and along with it, outlines their personal experience using the technique in the WSO, a summary of the best points, how much money they made with it ... I'd thank and rep that kind of thing all day long. But when people start just copy/pasting for rep and thanks ... I imagine they're going to start getting negative rep now.
