Raise the rep limit?

I'm not raising it. People are supposed to give out rep because someone posts a good link to some RSL info. Maybe some photos, or writes a really good post. It has just turned into friends repping each other, and that's lame, it's not designed for that. It's supposed to be a system that allows a new member to know that if someone posts something, they're not full of it, not that they have great begging skills.

Also, I don't need how to raise the rep pointed out to me, I'm more than capable of administrating my own forums.

Now that is a post worthy of being repped.

Thank you Neil. I totally agree.

What is the limit?

I noticed I never ran out of rep to give until I had two boxes.

Really? Because until relatively recently I noticed people were complaining that you were hardly ever involved with the forums.

But I am going to rep you tomorrow anyways, because I see that you are a one-boxer. I would rep you today, but I have reached my limit.

I don't think so.

Yes, what kept me away is called a job. I happen to own two companies that require someone to operate them. A network consulting company, and a small software development company. I've spent the last two months working 12-16 hour days finishing a two year project for the latter that will hopefully make me several million dollars, you'll have to excuse me if that took priority over posting about soccer, no matter how much I love it.

If there was ever a problem with the forums, there are several people on here that have my cell phone number and could have called. That or they could have just talked to me at a game, I've been at every one. The only person to do so was Jules, and she didn't have a problem, she was just seeing how I was doing.

Congratulations on the whole "work" thing. Maybe if I spent more time working and less time posting, I could be making a few mil myself. 😎

By the way - thanks for admining the boards for us.
