He may well have been 17 chronologically but his emotional / mental age was about 13 to 14 IMHO.

He never negged me. I didn't neg him. I prefer to put my criticisms in a thread where people don't have to dig into the profile to see what I think of a poster, so I avoid negs almost all the time. I think I've given three or four in various forums over the ten years or so I've been on forums.

Had I received a neg rep from that little troglodyte, I'd have worn it like a badge of honor.

A negative rep war is a bit childish and accomplishes little.
I don't know or care who the erstwhile Imabeliever negative-repped but I saw who gave him negative reps and most, if not all, would not have deserved a negative member rep. Edit to add: Especially from this clown so it's good to see those are being erased.

I don't think any reps should be erased -- even negreps from a dumbass. Let that shit ride. Even Lincoln had folks vote against him. Even great guitarists drop a slag on Jimi Hendrix every so often. What of it? Of course we're gonna get folks who think rep matters, and will throw negs around.
It's all good, I say, don't clean up rep records, please.

I'm caucasian, that's for sure. My skin is also really light. So as far as "passing" goes, I most definitely do pass.
But if you put me in a place where you might expect to find Jews (a synagogue or institute of higher learning), you might very well pick me out as a Jew because of my general appearance and mannerisms.

Negrepping relies upon the premise that the recipient actually cares about rep scores.
Reply reps only tell the guy who negged you that he hit his target.

The negative reps also just give the passive-aggressive shites some pleasure, methinks.

That guy was as mad as a box of frogs, first time apart from Islamists that I've encountered anyone who believes jesus was actually the devil. Frankly I've never seen such frightened desperation to convince others that their theology is right, I mean a threefold extinction event for humans? Not even WLC would be so retarded.
