[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1321727839' post='1442520'] But the top two are in favour of different things so [u]shouldn't[/u] be conflated. [/quote] Fixed

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1321703462' post='1442131'] This is a good point. It should be the post that is being 'liked' not the person. [/quote] That is true. I approve of this post.

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1321658065' post='1441831'] <snip/> Already we know of one member (not a mod) who created a separate profile so they could like their own posts under the other profile and then asked why we were taking issue with their posts when they were liked so many times...but my lips will remain sealed...they know who they are. [/quote] Someone set up a sockpuppet? Really? Wow.

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1321658889' post='1441836'] He doesn't get to see you have disliked him. The system is anonymous for everyone apart from admin. [/quote] Okay, thank you. [quote] How do you see nationality influencing the rep system? [/quote] If you live in (example) Malta, your opportunities to meet Basschat members are limited, and few people will trade with you ("sorry mate, UK only"). The net result of that is that people who live outside the UK will seldom have many Likes.

Okay, how transparent is this? If I decide that I want to Dislike my old opponent Dickweed70286995995, does he get to see I've Disliked him? Or does he just have an anonymous running total of people who hate him? Generally I don't like the idea of a rating system, because IMO it tends to freeze out the non-British members. If we have to have this, could it be arranged that the specific post which the Like or Dislike is set on is available to members generally to see? Or maybe some sort of reason should be required when posting a Like/Dislike; that would let people link to specific posts if they wanted (and we would quickly catch on if they didn't).

Okay, here it is, re-advertised. I emailed them, late May. I see it's not up as an Ibanez any more. http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/bass-guitar-5-string-and-amp-for-sale--250-together-ono-will-split/91154494

Part of the difficulty with stuff that's not sung in English is that you're never sure whether you're listening to something like the Horst Wessel Song.
