Why

[brapbrap]

Can you not put "All rep returned"in your signature, but you can still buy rep? surely if we PAID you to put ALL REP RETURNED in our signatures it would be allowed?

it's indirectly asking for rep

As well as this, the rep given to you is often pointless - the people only do it so they can get the rep back and they don't do it for the reasons they should; good posts etc.

Its only allowed because they are getting a profit out of it.

Wished we got a profit out of it, you would be suprised at the expenditure we had. Anything left over at the end of each month is usually working capital.

We allowed vips to purchase rep because there was a long period from when the vB habbox forum started in 2004 to a point in 2005 where rep just didnt matter it was just one of those things that little people bothered with or cared about.

Then suddenly it was a big time thing to rep people here and there for this post or that post and suddenly it was cool to have this much rep or that much rep power.

At this point Habbox was spending a lot more out then was coming in so we released the purchase rep. Due to silly people they made it that people were getting pointless rep for nothing or abused in the comments and new users were finding a hard time because they had low rep ratings and one negative rep would easily half their points. So we decided to enforce the "no asking for rep rule / pointless rep rule.
