    Hmmm You're probably right. It did help me decide to just put Neinteen and all the clone versions of the names on my ignore list.

    If you're going to say ridiculous things in public, you should be prepared to have people respond in a less-than-pleasant manner. And if you're not prepared, you'll learn quickly. Just ask Cookeit, who took a whole heap of crap over a thread he started about losing to "lesser" fencers. I know that sounds cold-hearted, but it's how I see things.

    More on topic, why do some names, like ZZ, ParryThis, show up green instead of blue? And why do they say "Epee Hive Queen" or "Epee Fencing Addict" instead of "senior member"? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with rep or number of posts. I'm sure I could look this up somewhere, but it's easier and quicker to just ask.

    But then someone else has to look and cut and paste for you.

    People with a green username and possibly a larger than usual avatar are people who have "Gone Green". By Going Green, one is helping to support Fencing.net by donating a small amount of money. The result of this is some special privileges, which include a green username and expanded avatar size.

    It should be on your UserCP - when you open it, it will show any comments left on the rep and the comment that lead to your being given rep.

    dom of daylight’s dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon, in his riding
    Of the rolling level underneath him steady air, and striding
    High there, how he rung upon the rein of a wimpling wing
    In his ecstasy! then off, off forth on swing,
    As a skate’s heel sweeps smooth on a bow-bend: the hurl and gliding
    Rebuffed the big wind. My heart in hiding
    Stirred for a bird,—the achieve of; the mastery of the thing!

    It's really because we like having cool names, that's all.

    I thought the green thing is when you pay money, no?

    Why does everybody bloody care so much about rep anyways?

    Like high school all over again...

    Then again, this comes from one not too high on the rep ranks, so take it with a pinch of salt

    I think it is all a clever method to keep people posting.

    It provides variable reinforcement, sort of like a slot machine. You find yourself checking your rep to see if you managed to post anything that anyone else found repworthy and then post some more to see if you can do it again.

    Considerably cheaper than going to Vegas though.

    No surprise there.. Half the people on this forum are still IN highschool

    This thread is ridiculous.

    Just sayin'.

    On topic, it seems that many don't know that you check your rep by hitting "User CP" in the top right of your screen. "CP" stands for control panel, not the other thing. If you're in the water cooler, you then have to click on "User Control Panel", anywhere else on f.net it goes automatically. Then you see a list of who gave you rep, when, for what post, and if they choose, why.
