agreed

How long do we discuss these so called points of reputation. I have used them occassionaly but not much. Thery are an irritating, anoying detail of this forum as the continuing discussions prove. Those who can ignore them do so, but to most they are dammed anoying to say the least.
I also think they are misleading, I feel they make great of lesser members and less of greater members.

As Far as I can see there only one person that thinks they are good for us.

If you look at one of your postings, it's right there, up on the right side, under Join Date.
I see that you (longliner45) has a reputation of 27.

Where does it come from?
Who is giving us these points?

hey Longliner if these guys get heart attacks it solves the points problem! [death is Natures way of saying you've failed! - quote from a certain British army regiment that you know well unlike most of these funny necked shaped birds that look forward to Christmas or Thanksgiving! ) leaves the rest of us to get on with the important task of talking about boats - and the people (idiots) what use them

What on earth are you talking about? You never loose an opportunity to tell us your supposedly a seaman,-- then confess to being an (idiot) for going out on one.
