Am I A Loser If I Give Bead Rep To A Kid???

[Giulietta]

AFTER "THE BRAVE" MEMBER HERE ON SAILNET THAT GAVE A KID A BAD REP POINT IN A THREAD WHERE THE KID ASKS WHAT ARE REP POINTS, I DECIDED TO START THIS POLL SO YOU, "BRAVE OUT OF RANGE WITH KIDS" PROUD MEMEBER KNOW YOU'RE A LOSER.....ALTOUGH I SUSPECT YOU ALREADY KNOW....

HIS BAD REP POINT TO FRED WAS FOLLOWED BY THE REMARK (UNSIGNED AS A REAL BRAVE MAN WOULD DO):

"Please post with good subjects. "Questions" is not a good subject"

HERE THE QUESTIONS:

AM I A LOSER IF I:

a) GIVE BAD REP TO A KID WANTING TO KNOW WHAT REP POINTS ARE
b) GIVE BAD REP TO A KID THAT DOESN'T SPEAK ENGLISH VERY WELL?
c) GIVE BAD REP TO A KID IN CHRISTMAS TIME?
d) ALL THE ABOVE

[DJEVANS]

I would vote D. I think you should add E)Give bad rep to anyone, kid or no, for posting a question--WHICH IS ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS SAILNET EXISTS.

[tomaz_423]

d) ALL THE ABOVE

[teshannon]

DJ's got it right.

[sanjuanderer]

Rep points mean nothing to me but I'll bet they mean a lot to a kid.
Especially to a real sailor like Fred. I vote D.

[SailorMitch]

D of course -- and let's keel haul the culprit!

[denby]

I vote d, how many times can we vote? Can it be like the last poll Alex posted?

[uspirate]

I vote for DJ too. tell Fred I'm gonna give him some rep

G, you have to realize that this is a US-domestic based web site, where there are laws and conventions about allowing unsupervised minors to use the web--and web sites. Sometimes for their own protection.

See, if he had been supervised, someone might have solved that problem about posting a proper topic, before it happened. Now you've got to do the Daddy thing, and explain to him why he shouldn't take candy from strangers, or get in their cars, or talk to them. And how to restore his ruined reputation.

Fred should challenge the coward to an Optimist race...and then loan him his old boat.
