Patricia Pulling It stems mainly from a pair of isolated incidents, one of which occurred in 1979, and the other of which happened in the early 1980s.

How can I recover from a bad reputation?

BesslerWheel.com :: FAQ [ Guest ]
Each member has the ability to rate you (good or bad) depending on how they feel about your participation in the forum. However, each member can change their mind and revoke a bad rating at any time. They can then change their rating to good. So there is always a second chance to redeem yourself. Similarly, a member can also revoke a good rating and change it to a bad rating, so it works both ways.

This link works at every time and redirects you to one of our public servers in the DeepIRC.

What are good and bad things to give positive reputation for?

Bodybuilding.com Forums - FAQ: What is reputation?
Reputation should be given to people who post meaningful, helpful, and thoughtful posts. Any post that contributes to the thread in a positive way probably deserves positive reputation. This does not mean that you agree with what was said; the point brought up may be completely opposite to what you believe, but it may be a good point nonetheless, and worthy of a pat on the back.

What are good and bad things to give negative reputation for?

Bodybuilding.com Forums - FAQ: What is reputation?
Negative reputation should be given if the person is posting something that detracts from the conversation. If the post is rude, inappropriate, breaks forum rules, is not gracious, etc; these are all good reasons to give negative reputation. If you have a personal grudge with someone, their team, etc, is it not appropriate to give them negative reputation for no reason. Giving negative reputation because you don't agree with what was said is not an appropraite use of the reputation system.

Neither. Points are just one more option to consider when getting a loan. Most people choose not to pay any points, but that in itself doesn't make points bad. For some borrowers, paying points is a great way to lower their monthly mortgage payments. For other borrowers, that money might be better used elsewhere. It really depends on your situation, how long you plan to be in the property, how much available cash you have, how much you expect interest rates to change in the future, etc.

Why is betting for your team such a bad thing?

Frequently Asked Questions
The possibility exists that decisions won't be made in the team's best interests, but rather because of the money riding on the game. If a manager bets on a game, he may bring a player off injured reserves sooner than he should in order to win, or he may pitch a reliever without enough rest, not caring that he won't be able to pitch for several extra days. If a betting manager gets in large debt to bookies, he can clear his account by merely revealing inside information about the team.

How did you do the 'user comments' thing?

Derek's Big Website of WalMart Purchase Receipts FAQ
Well, I have to admit I'm doing something wrong. The CGI script that I'm using is called MakeBook v2.0 and belongs to Kristina Pfaff-Harris. You can download the script from her webpage. My problem is that her license requires that every page generated by the script is supposed to have a link back to her site. For whatever reason (probably my fault), the self-appending activities weren't working right; it was adding a brand-new footer after every entry, which only added confusion.
