True.
But before I was "under attack", it was a good way to find out if I had offended anyone by accident.
Log in, notice your rep dropped by one, check the things you wrote the day before and sometimes you'd find out that, yes, that might have been written in a "heat of the moment" state of the mind, or might have been misinterpreted or simply offending and you can apologize for it.

Now... *shrug*

Not long enough. I've skimmed the PbP threads for a week, and I'm also going to start looking for a game in the local area (Miami).

Enjoy the thread Xy.  I, personally, have no idea why your being smites.  This seems a recent event.  I've been picking up about 5 a day in the last week and I'm lost to why?

Is anyone else getting a ton of smites in the last week?

Ayup.

Nothing new on my side, but I'm pretty I know who and why... it's at least partially a case of certain board-members, who shall remain nameless in case I'm wrong, just deciding they don't like someone and smiting people every time they see their name, regardless of if there's any new "offense" or not.

For me it's also a case of momentum. People see I already have a "bad" rep, so they're less likely to Applaud and more likely to Smite,  making it worse.

I have noticed the astronomical climb of your negative rep. That is why i applaud you every time I see your name. Seriously, some people are pretty immature. Why is it ever worth it to go and smite someone every hour on the hour over one "offense"?

Heh. I don't see what the deal with getting smites is, honestly. Way I see it, if you're not sucking up to everyone, you're bound to piss a few people off. Just be you, and to hell with the people who hate it. It isn't like a rep score on an internet message board is going to ruin your life or anything.

Man... just got home from a hell of day at work.  Boss says I'm not a team player because my smites are up and my applauds are down.  And I just caught my wife checking out Canray's posting count.  8,000+ with a 10:1 positive rep ratio.  Dudes got some seriously good... stats, if you know what I mean.  How the hell is a working slob like me going to compete?  *sigh*
