As far as i'm aware you can't delete all of someone's rep.You would only lose it all if numerous people neg repped you.If you neg rep/rep someone you can't do it again until you "passed it around"
Im not sure about that, I lost all my rep last night, it was that **** astro, with the huge rep that neg repped me. No one else has according to the setting, I had a reasonable amount of rep to.
To be honest with you I just treat rep as a bit of a joke like most people. I've just repped you so see what happens to your score
They should write a definition of what a "real Arsenal fan" is and post it as a sticky thread on this board. That way we can all read it and have something to aspire to. I'll start: 1. A real Arsenal fan must be a politically correct automaton with no independent opinions on subjects that may bring the club into disrepute. 2. A real Arsenal fan must never say a bad word about any Arsenal player at any time. Even if that player has just scored 3 own goals and ****ed your mother.
Now come on, I don't think the right way to deal with this is to resort to the very hyperbole that gets you into trouble in the first place. I've said that I don't think certain people are real fans (or actually I usually say supporters), in the past, but I have (to a certain extent) seen the error of my ways and realized that it isn't a terribly helpful comment that is very close to being a WUM. I have tried to resist the temptation to revert to it, not always successfully. However, it is the way some fans seem to go straight to exaggerated negative statements about the club, manager, and players that invite the response that they are not "Real fans". Which of course is equally stupid. (Yep, I called myself stupid.) Of course we know that you are trying to make a point and you are using this technique because it is effective, but it is hard to take people seriously, when serious debate about a players ability is drowned out by an argument like. "Ramsey will never be any good, he can't do anything right and he is completely useless and Arsenal will never win anything if he is not sold immediately. Anyone who say anything different is an idiot." No one would question an Arsenal fan that said instead - "My opinion is that Ramsey needs to work on some fundamental aspects of his game before fans will accept him as first team material. I see having him in the first XI as an indication that we don't have a team strong enough to win anything. I also think the chances of him improving to a point where this isn't the case as unlikely." It really isn't what you say, it is how you say it that gets me going. But you objecting to dubious argumentative tactics used against you, in response to your own dubious argumentative techniques is just a little hypocritical, isn't it?
Sometimes I call them that without even thinking about it. It's pretty much become their name. Go on astroturf... you plastic , neg rep me!
The worst bit about it is the female commentary... so dulland just sounds like she doesnt know what she is talking about!
I thought the final was very entertaining and generally a good advert for women's football, even if Norway had apparently been taking penalty lessons from England. Germany's goal was such a Man United goal though.
Yeah i was cheering on Norway - thought they deserved to take it to extra time, a shame about the missed penalties and offside goal lol
