1) Rota was never a mod and i dont remember him ever asking for his rep. I have never been a mod, nor "farmed" my rep. There is a large amount of rep that goes around in the gfx community, i suppose that could account for a lot of the larger reputation people, however i believe that is deserved. In my opinion the gfx crew deserves the most forum props because they actually work together, and have a lot of fun doing different funky things

2) Server forums can and have been 10 times more hateful then OT and GA combined

3)I agree with you about red rep, i liked being able to show displeasure with peoples posts. I think instead of taking it away entirely, the requirement to have it should be raised. AKA prinz only or something. IDK

Thats really all my thoughts on this.
