    nope. In this thread, i have mentioned many times that there is no 100% fool proof system. Nothing is 100% perfect in life. But we keep the best system out of the lot.


    well., in it's all fairness... i do really do get the rep system.. and have nothing against it actually.

    it's a good method to keep the member return ratio high and as a motivational factor. .... and it has worked superbly. if you look at it in a marketing perspective, i think you have made quite a lot of money out of it as well. the site hits have basically gone off the roof eh GT ?

    and no.. don't tell me that you still run it with your own money. if you are.. i am willing to buy it out of you outright and turn this into a money minting machine. :lol:

    but.. if you look it this system in a "value for your time" factor.. total CRAP i must say. The value of content has incredibly reduced.

    but then again.. it's all based on the standing values you have build this forum on. if your aim was to make money.. yeah.. you are making a kill on it. but if you had even the vague idea of social service and a gathering point of mutual interest that has any value what so ever.... dude., you failed miserably.

    well, If you like what this site has become with the aid of the rep system there's no further argument but it only reflects your lack of attention to your own site.
    delusions of grandeur?

    Again, nothing is perfect but current rep system is better than post count, stars or any other previous systems we had.

    can't blame the man for wanting to make a little money, but he's still out there preaching about contributing something to the community which delivers lulz here and there :lol:

    post counts wasn't even a system, people post it adds to their count that's how it works. only a couple retards tried to achieve high post counts, and people still do that I might have given you a couple of example if you could get the top posters list working:yes:

    LOL scene

    now If we could buy cigarettes with the post count...

    You admit that you don't understand the reputation system, i think you don't understand how a social site or community works and your definition for value of the content not applicable to others. I understand you are not interested on learning about them, just want to get highlighted on your free time. :lol:

    Old days there were huge amount of chat threads and normal people who are new to the interned loved that system. It was giving elakiri high ranks on the charts and hit rates were higher so basically it will earn more money if you are interested on the financial factor. :lol:

    But in the same time it will slow down the server and other content get no attention at all. We need all types of interest group in elakiri with lot of subjects not just a gathering point as you like it to be.

    again my point.

    if the idea is to make money.. then shut the muck up and make it, rather than preaching about the goodness, fairness and all other bullshit that has no relevancy in a business point of view. Prayers and drooling included

    as said, if the idea was to create a social meeting point of value.. then do something about it. If my memory serves me right, i had seen chaps getting banned for posting pics of a nipslip... but now, we have full on bare nudity. In a site which in GT's own claims "a site that audience of all ages gather.. including Kids"

    if the latter is your idea, then time to do damage control and go back into a contingency plan of forum wide ban on adult materials and etc which downgrades the core values of the forum.

    just my point... but if i were to guess the current system of things...any admin would pick money over value... sadly !

    correct me If I'm wrong, But now people post a batshit crazy amount of threads everyday begging for reps, they post a single picture they lifted from I don't know where and ask for rep,

    don't this add up to the server load?

    when it was mentioned to gtrz regarding the semi nude pics on this very thread, he, in all his wisdom stated that it was well within the sri lankan law ..which obviously made me lol :lol: and needless to mention all the high quality racism going around here, these are the kinds of thread you can trust to lead your kid in ways of absolute righteousness

    and yes, he doesn't swing the ban hammer as much, Scurvy who would have been banned to the far corners of universe is still there, as we live and breathe, attracting viewers with his colorful praises :lol:

    There were a good system call "Member Of the Month" as far as i know it wasn't continued after the Blacka got the place.
    wish admin can start it again, Not to be a Member of the Month but it was a 100% better system than Reputation System..

    LOL as i said before old system will make more money.

    I can see whats you are up to now. Get it straight hehe
    LOL i can't see any nude images or anything legally adults only in elakiri. havent you been to any social sites like facebook or youtube? You are talking so open minded but can't face a sexy model pic
    You admit you spoke in adult language and bashing others on your so called good old days. So its illegal and even polluting children with explicit language. Its okay right? :lol: even old days there were sexy model pics. remember SL chics?
