Say Hello to The Rep Grand Group! [07/19/16 UPDATE!]

[adsii1970]

@CobaltWolf: Not really. In all fairness, it's been a running joke since the old forum before the major change. I believe I was within like 60 or 70 reps of being a member of the LGG (Light Green Group). So the joke has been that as soon as I hit 999, @Dman979 would change it to the 10K or even 2K group - right as I was on the threshold of membership.

To me, the 1:1 ratio isn't that big of a deal. I've seen others with it.

It's a way less interesting measure now that rep can be applied to posts in forum games, the posts there don't go toward your postcount.

Is there some sort of significance to that? Because, uh...

It's significant because it's rare and it means that either someone has liked every one of your posts or (more likely) you have some posts that have tons of likes. It's difficult to get a 1:1 ratio, you both have done a great job.

Eh!? Then why did all of my forum game posts go toward my post count? ;(

I didn't realize that. The more interesting fact is that you couldn't get repped for posts in forum games in the old forums.

They didn't. Your post count is 2094 but you have more like 3560 including your "uncounted" posts.

The theory was that rep should be based on KSP stuff, but I think the new software doesn't support turning it off on a per-forum basis. Those old posts can get repped now though, if someone is reading old threads.

seems legit.

Ok guys. Update. 

My mother has been hospitalized for a few days now, as well as a day last week. I've been running back and forth between hospital and home, taking my siblings to school and back, as well as trying to figure some things out about life. She will be having surgery tonight or in the morning. I won't be updating the list until this ordeal is over. I hope you guys can understand that. 

And for those who are concerned, it isn't life threatening, but it's still stressful and worrying.

I hope she gets well soon.  I wish her the best.

Don't worry about silly forum stuff when important real life things are happening. Take care of your family, I hope everything works out OK.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, go spend time with her, not us.

Of course! Family > Forum. I'd totally do the same in your position. All the best to your mom!

Give the man a break.

If they're past, he'll let us know. If not, I'm sure he would rather spend time with his family than check the forums.

232 more.

I didn't know!! I wasn't rushing but rather curious.

@ZooNamedGames, I appear to have given you the final point

Only about 650 to go for me...

Well, I cut it down to 631 remaining  . Don't worry Steve, your a very familiar face! I see you all the time! 

With this new forum software, and your great personality and charisma- I have no doubt you'll be at 800 or above 900 points by the end of next year if not hit 1k sooner!

It was a slow uphill climb for me, but I made it and if I can... Then ANYONE who REALLY wants to can. 

So I can't wait for your 1k Rep Steve  !

Wow. Thanks Took a bit of time, but i made it - and i regret nothing. This forum and its members are one of the best, helpful and least toxic communities i found in all my years of web trawling. Cheers, guys and girls

[ZooNamedGames]

Can someone rep me and refresh? I think reality wasn't ready for me go break 1k and I'm locked at exactly 1000 rep. Since I've gotten more since I broke the limit...
