So one day I was posting as normal, and then I see a red square right below my avatar on a post, at first I was like: "Red square! Nobody else has a red square next to their name, I must be special!" So I highlighted the red square, and the message said: "Kleid-0 is a segfault", what kind of sick joke is this!?
It's reputation system. On the left margin of someone's post you can add reputation and it can be positive or negative. The amount added depends on your own reputation, and probably post-count and the time you've been a member (though I'm not sure).
I'm guessing you're in the red purely for all the posts where you gave full source code with no explanation, but now that you've stopped that I don't think it'll be that long before you've got a green square or two.
edit: In your user CP is a list of the rep that's been added recently
edit: And don't get depressed just because you're being called a segfault. I can assure there are plenty others who somehow managed to get to multiple red squares and the title of compiler error after only a couple of posts.
I was in the red at one stage :)
>>I'm guessing you're in the red purely for all the posts where you gave full source code with no explanation
You have to stop bumping old threads too.
That was after the red squares :( Well ya gotta make mistakes sometimes.Quote:

In the US (or as it seems to the outside world) the people choose which person they like better (as a general mass) not their political party and their beleives. Charisma plays the biggest role in suitability for their leader, not policys.
I think that's why they haven't banned cgod yet.Quote:

You're a moron.
edit: You make RoD look like a genius. I really mean it.
Now THIS is Christmas power! 5 more red squares to go and I'll be just as cool as cgod!
Heh,
Just don't get bored. Or end up like him. :cool:
- Stack Overflow
edit: Oh, fudge.
cgod NNOOO!!! WHY!! First you give him red candy, and then you ban him & change his name to Iambored, that is so cool! Did he swear too much?
OK, it was amusing at first, but now you need to stop.
well he did have like a million questions about making a trainer for Far Cry......It was about time he got screwed......(no offense to anyone)
>I think that's why they haven't banned cgod yet.
wtf, who stole my old banned nick (cgawd)
yeah, that's a really original name.
i usually go by BobDole everywhere else on the internet, I dont know why I picked cgawd, what, 2 years ago... oh well, I'm glad I got drunk and spammed then got banned, cause that name is lame.
Well I don't know, after what cgod did, with a name like cgod or cgawd, they're bound to be ultra cool! ;)
But they always get banned.. it must be fate.

"Well he did have like a million questions about making a trainer for Far Cry"
->There is nothing wrong with that, he was a curious person.
Well it is against the rules to post asknig for help on cheats for games, isn't it?Quote:

I don't think so. It's a pretty stupid rule if it is one.
Technically, hacking a game is against the games EULA and some laws. Practically, as long as you hack a single player game, no one cares. Have fun. Hacking a multi player game and cheating other players, while the same official offense, is frowned upon by the gaming community ( and me personally ).
However, if you don't start your post with "I'm going to build a CS bot", no one cares what you ask if there is an alternative reasonable explanation.
>>Well it is against the rules to post asknig for help on cheats for games, isn't it?
Yes, it falls under the boards anti-cracking rule.
What if you are asking for built in cheat codes (like how to find them) hmm kermi :)
I read all of cgod's locked threads, pretty amazing lol. It looked like he was trying to create a trainer that includes a keylogger LOL, trying to pretend it was it was security protector inside of a folder called wallhack or something like that.Quote:

You're right Thantos, that is allowed, but working on external ones, cracking the game, or making trainers is not.
I doubt that you know enough to make a bot for anything. It's harder than you think. And as for trainers they are extremely difficult to make without having privileged information about the game - which is why I'm totally against them.
If you cheat you suck.
If you program something so others can cheat, you really suck.
Oh come on, some people just want to mess around and have fun in their own way. That's what games are for, right? Anyway, no lawyer would try to sue someone for making a game trainer, EULAs are very hard to hold up in court, and reverse engineering isn't illegal.Quote:

I feel the same way, unless there is a way to get single player data online (I.E: Open Bnet for Diablo II).Quote:

I vote everybody gives negative rep to Thantos, Govt, and Prelude :P
They've gotta be cheating the system somehow :P
PS.
I was just kidding. Don't actually do that :P
IRC, they kept giving eachother +rep, and when you have a lot of rep when you give rep it gives more, or something, IDK... I wish they all would give me +rep though :-D
What the heck does IRC mean?
Internet relay chat. I think he meant IIRC
You don't RC.Quote:

yah
and it probably was someone else im thinking of, idk
bottome line. who freaking cares?
Just ignore the crap, its worse than when you had to have a certain amount of posts to change your "tagline" below your username. everyone, (including the old me, 3 yrs ago?) would just spam to get high enough post count to change it.
maybe im just high off wood chips. man im making less and less sense as i age.
> everyone, (including the old me, 3 yrs ago?) would just spam to get high enough post count to change it.
The only person I know of that did that is Xterria, and his posts were deleted after that.
Going back a bit... How did Iambored get banned after 5 posts? I read those posts and they werent offensive or dumb or anything.
Because it was a second account for some unnamed person named Thantos.
hehe...Iambored was almost "chosen" :(
They are fun as long as you don't take them serious...Quote:

Not in a row, I'll bet. Anyway, reputation is a measure of how much an individual agrees with one of your posts. Take it with a grain of salt and have fun with it. If you're too serious all the time you'll get an ulcer.
yea..people give me a bad rep for making jokes....i've never been 'repped' for giving bad information

>How many ulcers have you had yet, Prelude? :P
It's all a ruse. My fingers are a silliness filter that remove most of the wacky things I would say if we were talking face to face. But when it gets cold the filter breaks down, so winter is my crazy season. :p
I think that the good thing about user rating is that it would give you an idea of what other users think of your posts, which is good... Ofcourse assuming that the users are giving serious rating. And I think that users should always provide a comment when rating other users.
everyone should give your peer a positive rep for a merry xmas!
Prelude hit it right on the head. Don't worry about reputation, it will give you a brief bit of feedback, but it is not everything.Quote:
