Give me Experience! When I attain GODHOOD I promise everyone UNLIMITED WISHES

I don't think community supporters are allowed to give out negative xp. I certainly can't, and I have "full" supporter status.

I think if anybody besides mods/admins has that ability it was an oversight. I know Morrus was saying that he wants this system to be about rewarding people who are contributing to the community, not about popularity contests or punishing people. Umbran just a few posts up confirmed my thoughts on it.

i dont seem to be able to give negative xp though. is it something only certain people can do?

If someone outside of admin, mods, or staff can give negative reputation (XP), then it is an unintended accident. It is *not* an ability community supporters are supposed to have.

If I'm not wrong, even us with just staff rights are excluded from that too . I don't really mind. I feel Morrus' reasons for disabling it were very good.

EDIT: Except it seems I can Energy Drain afterall... I didn't even know I was a vampire ...

well, those who gave it to me were:

Crothian
Nifft
el-remmen
Kanegrundar


if any of them shouldn't have it, and you can wipe out their charitable gift of negative experience to me, i will be further along the path to godhood.

thx

Your user title was always suspicious to me...

Because the staff feels that promotes even more popularity contest dynamics.

Oh, well yeah - obviously most people here can't be trusted with that power. But me? Oh, I would use it wisely and responsibly, and only smite those who truly deserved it. Or who pissed me off. Or had user names I disliked. Or who happened to fall into my line of sight when I'm in a bad mood. I guess what I'm saying is that I absolutely need to be able to give negrep. Gimme gimme gimme!

This thread should be closed. I disliked the negativity the whole 3/4e thing gave and this is giving me the same feelings. I suspect I am not the only one.

It's should also be deleted or thrown into some dark corner of ENWorld's database and never let to come out into the light of day.
