Hahahaha...someone appears to have registered an account solely for the purposes of giving me negative reputation for a post on this thread.

Well, whoever it was must have known what you were thinking, as that poster registered the day before the post in question.
Maybe you're even pissing off the newbies as well as everyone else...

If they have just signed up then they won't be able to leave you any positive or negative reputation as they will have 0 influence. They can still leave you reputation comments, but they can't affect your reputation score.

I'd love to know how many "emo skater girls" would register on a forum and bother to look at the Web Site Announcements forum, without making any posts. I don't know any, do you?

Speaking of the influence scores, any chance you could tell us how influence scores are gained/lost?

Is this EmoSkatergirl16 you are referring to? Because I've just checked and he/she has been trying to hand out reputation to all sorts of people - so don't feel hard done by. You'll notice if you look on your profile page, where the last 5 reputation comments can be viewed, that the icon beside the reputation they tried to give you is grey in colour - this means it has had no affect on your reputation score.

I think I'm going to made reputation comments mandatory again at least. And if I find out EmoSkatergirl16 is someone's second account then I think there is going to be a little bit of banning going on.

aberdeen-music - FAQ: User Reputation System

Although I now need to update that particular FAQ article, it's still mostly accurate.

Can you not just check from their IP address?

Yep, unfortunately some people go to the effort of accessing the web site through proxy servers hosted in exotic countries in order to hide their identify (yes, some people are actually that sad on here) so the IP address can often be no use.

I've found this particular user's Hi5 profile page though: hi5 - xxXxxXxxEmoSkaterGirl16xxXxxXxx

Fake or not fake? It's a lot of effort to go if it's fake.

I've always wondered why people go to so much bother on websites like this. Fuds.
