Rep-ciprocity = The act of reciprocation and giving a person rep points back, after they've hit you with reps.

Rep-ression = The act of the man holding us back on giving a person reps until we "spread it around"

Rep-striction = Another act of the man holding us back on giving reps for a 24 hour period.

Rep-utation = Over inflated ego strokes given to others.

Moder-REP-tion = The act of self control, so as to have REP available to give when you meet that special post.

Rep-air = to correct the error of not sending reps to deserving posts.

Rep-Petition= The act of giving to the same fellow FTE'er's again and again.

Rep-udiate = refusal give reps.

Rep-ent = get off one's butt and start sending reps.

Rep-ugnant = University of Georgia mascot's agent...err...this seems to be misplaced!

Rep-percution = Shotgun Saturday night rep's.

Rep-rehensible = not giving rep when it is truly deserved.

Rep-stitute = the act of selling reps.

Dis-Rep-utable = One who acquires a great amount of REP points. Often for no reason at all.



I'll add a few more:

Rep-ublicanism = Ideology of people earning their own reps and not on a social program / hand out like this thread.



Rep-tile = Act of decorating your screen with greenies.

Rep-roduction = Act of reps creating more reps thru sinful and illicit acts.

Rep-entance = Act of undoing a previous Repudiation.

Rep-ressor = FTE'r that refuses to give out reps for any reason.
Hey wait a minute there! What acts are you calling "sinful and illicit"?
How about healthy and Joyful.

Rep-Petition= The act of giving to the same fellow FTE'er's again and again.
I fixed it for us.

Another new one?
Rep-stitution= The giving of rep to people that did not earn it just because their Great Grand-fathers worked for Henry Ford.

Confessions of a REP-a-holic

Great list X-Hemi!


I guess I'm a:


REP-o-crat - one who liberally gives reps as handouts for any reason whatsoever.

I have a REP-addition.

Guys, I think I need to go to RA.

REP-a-holics Anonymous - a thread were Rep-stitutes & Rep-addicts can go get treatment by giving and receiving Reps, therefore fueling their addiction. **NOTE** In some undocumented cases RA will make the condition worse.



Here's a short story of a REP-addict:

My name is Bill. I was once a clean, sober, individual who enjoyed casual surfing of the FTE forum. I used to wonder what the green blocks under the post count meant but it didnt mean much to me.

One day while surfing the FTE Excursion forum I ran across this thread that was labelled "Rep Points". I read this thread and it seemed that a little Rep-angel was whispering sweet nothings in my ear and she was telling me "this is what I've been missing". She encouraged me to follow the instructions and send someone a REP.

So, I did.

When I sent the first REP, a feeling of euphoria swept all over my body. At that point, I knew I was hooked! I had to experience this feeling again! I started REP-ing as often and as much as I could. That was until I got put in REP-prison for the 1st time. I think I was too stupid (on a REP-high) to realize what just happen after I was sentenced to my 1st 24 hour REP-prison period because I was stoked! I never realized that giving out too many reps in a certain amount of time would lead to criminal REP-record that was soon follow by 24 hour REP-prison.

Unfortunately this has led to a constant cycle of habitual REP-criminal offenses on my account and I really dont see an end in sight.

I think I may need REP-therapy but I'm no where near rock bottom so I'm living the dream and enjoying the ride!

As a result of my REP-addiction, I've changed my FTE party affiliation to REP-o-crat and I'm not looking back.

When I click on the FTE forum, my REP-angel begins her whispering all over again.

As I write this, I'm in REP-prison at this very moment and for some reason, I'm not remorseful one bit.

But, I fully understand that I'll REP-offend again as soon as I'm released.

Confessions of a REP-a-holic.............................


For some reason, I dont feel like I'm alone.

Wouldn't a Rep-o-crat be someone that hands out someone else' reps? (A practice prohibited by FTE.)

Unlike my Rep-ublicanism ideological tendencies...I have shot my wad in this thread and am under Rep-striction for the next 24 hours...I was very Rep-sez-faire with my reps today...hope no one was offended that I hit...if so...TOUGH! LOL...

I wish I had more Rep-ocrat thinking and I'd spend everyone else's too!!!...those rich and wealthy b-stards who hoard their reps can afford more darn it!...haha...

My belief is that there are very few government programs that will buy anyone an Ex. As such, this thread would seem to be dominated by those of the Rep-ublican persuasion. (Hmmm 'rep' backwards is 'per'. per-haps a whole new line of terms???)

I'm pleased to see that you noticed.
I'll say that I do get a warm fuzzy feeling when I think about it.

Oh wait, that feeling seems to be trickling down my leg.
I thought that I was 40th.

I've only given out the daily limit once.
I do hit the "Need to spread" boundary often.

Thanks to all who have contributed to my over inflated EGO.
and you're up to 36th and moving fast!...whatever you're "not" doing...you're doing really well!...
