Does that mean I could ruin the GOG rep economy by making thousands of witty comments to attract upvotes, and then retiring? Or would the blues just print more +1's to bail out the market?

This warrants more investigation. Perhaps GOG would have to borrow rep from a private but global +1 institution?

bler144: Help!

My reputation on these forums goes up 1 per day, without fail! At the start of March 2015, it was roughly '10', and now, just 400 days later, thanks to daily posting, it's 495.

Clearly I have a problem.

Can anyone help? Do I need an adult? How do I get my rep to stop going up 1 per day? Is it tinyE's fault? I'm pretty sure it is.

Thanks in advance!
I can't help, but you should panic!

I hear Imgur have a lot more of both +1's and -1's than they really need.

And what about reddit?

You are likely to be more versed in their ways than I am.

Nah. Just GoneWild really.
All right, well, my rep went up by +1 since I posted this thread so the problem clearly persists.

I see three potential solutions:
1) "the vegenaise and bust" contributed by zeo
2) "make a goodbye thread" contributed by moonbeam
3) "Stop being half-assed" contributed by hummer.

Taking hummer's advice to heart, I think it's critically important that I pick one of the three and just commit to it. No waffling or vacillating. "There can be only one!"

Sooooo, after pondering it a bit, I think that definitely one of those is the winner.



You know, unless someone else comes in with something better.
Well, i supposed u could post every other day instead of every day. That way ur rep wld only +1 in 2 days, haha. ;p

A nice idea, but that would require having an actual life.

I actually saw a guy here claiming to have one recently. No idea what he was on about. Delusional, poor fellow.

It gets worse. I logged onto Yahoo this morning and there is this big ass interview with someone I went to high school with about his new TV movie and is rising star, so not only do I lack a life, I'm now having it drilled into my skull every time I turn my fucking computer on! THIS ISN'T FAIR!!!! :P

I seriously need to start drinking again.
