@rappo Then I suppose that would beg the question, if it has no real significance, why have it? If reputation can be gained faster through a spam thread than it can through normal/helpful interaction, what is reputation actually for?
To me that just says "Spam lots, get upvotes, build rep"... it makes the reward for actually taking the time to help, feel a bit of an empty glass. I can either spend 30 minutes to an hour writing a small mod that helps someone and get an upvote for that (although not guaranteed) or I can bash the spam threads and get several.
Anyway, I just thought I would ask... it only came about from me seeing the users page more often recently. I'm also not used to being able to contribute to the extent I can here, so maybe LOLCatz >= real help just irks me a bit. (I know we don't get lolcatz... yet ... it was the first spam thing that popped into my head )
I'll mark this as solved and close the thread unless someone else has anything to say...
