Help me Please

Will someone please rep me?
I really would never ask for rep points except, for the fact that, I am at 666 point(s) total and would prefer to have another number instead. Please anybody?

I guess I'll get my asbestos britches on for the flaming but I had to get rid of that number. Thanks helifixer. It has been a week to remember with the 666 points and Ride of the Week both happening to me.

Sorry, SB!! I gave you rep points in the past and that helped to push you to that number. Tried to rep you again to get you "over the hump" and you know, I couldn't!!

Thanks to all who responded to my need. I am well beyond the number of the beast now. I hope to soon earn more points for the quality of my posts rather than being a charity case.

I'd give you a little Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia rep, but I have to spread it around first.

Having the number for rep didn't make it show up on your hand or anything, did it?

No physical symptoms just superstitious aversion to the total at the time.

Wouldn't it be fun to try to neg rep him back to the dreaded number?

Just kidding of course. I was bragging about a one point negative rep once and got whacked with a 50 point neg from an Admin as a joke. Them some powerful reps right there....

Some people have a sick sense of humor.

Thanks to all for getting me off the dreaded number.
Now go forth and spread some to the other members.
