That was not the point, who cares about the Rep system anyway?Yeah but unregistered posters wouldn't have been able to rep or be repped I'm guessing.
It was always quite entertaining when people used different usernames to try & come up with a "witty" response to something that had interested them, plus if you ever had a problem you didn't want mates from here (or even the Mrs) to find out you could post under an assumed identity!
The point was that like the Rep system the unreg posters ability was also abused by a minority and in its day it was the cause of much unrest between posters, although not to the same extent as the rep.
This was due to the normal user not being able to confirm for definite who the unreg poster was unlike the rep system. So people could not name and shame them.
In other words the unregistered poster saga did not have a witch hunt or should I say clique hunt :p
Although like Rep-gate, I found both amusing how some people got so worked up over it. :cool:
