Everybody's list varies. MF is on everyones of course (no he doesnt get a prize for that), ATW on most, etc etc and so on and so forth. I have seen other rep lists apart from my own where three or four members rep has identical comments from different prominent members. I wouldnt want to discuss that further as private discussions or veiwpoints of other people on here, are private and not for me to disclose.
It's something you cant really appreciate unless you're the "steerage" members of CUK.

But what happens a lot in repping, is where some members bombard others with rep which has nothing to do with a viewpoint offered. They will just click on any post, like one in the counting thread and neg it, then move on with their repping, trying to come full circle ASAP.
Anyway, kudos to you KP as I said in another thread earlier that I think your idea is the best. Scrap neg feedback and have LIKE buttons instead so posters know what sort of advice is appreciated. It will stop this silly neg war and then hopefully some pastier CUK members will be able to get enough time to get out in the sun.Comment
