it is the heads of easter island
a pillar of an ancient time in jpp
now they stand as a monument, yet with very little purpose.
They are a remnant of the reputation system. Instead of a reputation system we now use thanks and groans. Thanks give green dots, groans give red. If somebody has more groans than thanks their bar will be red.

Previously we used a reputation system, the rep points earned or lost during that period remain for users who were here then. Those with negative reputation from that period will have to overcome the weight of that negative reputation with still more thanks than groans.I might want to revise my earlier comment. Here's an example I just noticed. Zappa has been thanked 4,776 times, and has only been groaned 1,115 times, yet he has a red bar! So there must be a percentage thing a work as well or something.
Well, those little 'bricks' do drive some people bat shit crazy when they get one... so that can be an amusing purpose for them.![]()
That didn't work. Bummer.I'm going to see if I can simply reset the whole thing, we'll start from scratch. But I haven't had the time to research it.

I'll figure out a way. I don't want everybody to lose their Thanks/Groans, but I want to reset the count to zero and start it over.
yet I am the only one being punished.
Tell you what...I'll even go one better.
You get Billy to PUBLICLY apologize to me for wishing for my death and for his SCREAMING assertion that I will NEVER have the Forced Ignore removed and I will do everything you and Grind asked me to do to get things back to normal.
It must be an honest, sincere apology and not prefaced with any snarky caveats either.
and some people never give anyone red bricks
