The only problem with that is that it'd be gone by the 10th December, which is no where near Christmas (well, close but not that close :P) - so someone might start another one.Quote:

That's if it's closed straight away, but if not then the longer it stays open; the more time consuming it will be to deal with it.Quote:

because the purpose of that thread and every post in that thread was rep, if you made a rep 'post and ill +rep you' it'd be removed for the exact same reason, pointless rep.
whether they're saying merry xmas or hello it's pointless rep for the post.
leaving it will just cause people to gain twice as much rep when the new one gets posted as the exact same people will be receiving 400-500 rep again.
it's pointless having strict-ish rules on pointless posting then allowing these reps to be kept.

is meant to be pointless repping not posting js
It's not like it happens all the time though, it's just a one-off thread, once a year. And I doubt anyone got over 500 rep, because they probably only got 10/15 reps max.. and I highly doubt everyone had 30+ rep power.Quote:

i'm going by what someone said in the help desk from going from 3500 to 3950 or something i think it was comityQuote:

No it's suggesting if we make an exception for one thread, it should only be that posted officially by forum staff.Quote:

my views are the only ones that are valid ;l
They aren't because I've decided when I get back home, I'm putting you into a usergroup that slows the forum down for you ;)Quote:

oh does it really matter? oh it's unfair!!! rep in christmas threads will always be unfair as it's always front-loaded (earlier you post, the more rep you get). plus, it's not like it happens all the time. unless there is a simple way to remove the rep, no admin should have to go through it all manually and waste their time because some people are annoyed other users got more rep than they did. chill...
im pretty sure you fought for rep not to be removed when this happened before habbic.......
also [3] ban scott
init they should go through his rep n remove all his pointless repsQuote:

lol jokes. i'm not all that bothered about it. jens idea sounds good though

remove rep, remove the thread, bring it back on 21st clean, you'll get your rep back then, win.
but mcdonalds :(Quote:
