It has come to my attention that I am ranked #1 in rep points. When I first realized this, I was like "Whoa! Cool!" Now, however, I feel very guilty.
I realize that rep points don't really count for anything, and yet I still feel I need to apologize to the helpful folks on GT. Lordathestrings, Dr Simon, and Jolly McJollyson have long been the list-toppers. They got to the top by helping folks out with their guitar-related troubles. I got to the top by making a few people laugh now and then. Surely this is not right.
I just feel it misleading for my little green rep square to say "earthman buck is a wealth of guitar knowledge," when I am clearly not. There are undoubtedly some folks ranked in the low 200s who know infinitely more about guitars and music than me.
So anyhow, LatS, Doc Si, Jolly, everyone else who is even remotely helpful, I'm sorry. You all deserve it more than me.
Alright, now let the rep points fly!
I feel guilty, oh so guilty
# 1
nah, I got rep points for posting sarcastic things, mostly.
# 2
I didn't even know rep points were that big of a deal. I certainly don't care about them. Maybe I'm just out of the loop though.
# 3
I think I still know just a thing or two about the guitar... but what's it matter? Anyone that thinks that someone's a good guitarist based on their rep points is asking to be made fun of.
Edit: I just checked my rep point thing with this post and I'm apparantly a wealth of guitar knowledge... when did that happen?

Eh, the rep points dont really show who knows the most, but who makes people laugh the most/ people like the most. I'm tryin to let the points fly but I always have to spread em around.

Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance.

Dammit, man, get a hold of yourself! First you're in the top ten, and everything is workin' out great! You got a job, a family, a little house in the suburbs.....every now and then you save up enough for a little getaway with the wife....things are peachy keen. Rep keeps on a-growin', before you know it, you're head to head with the big man himself! Next thing you know, you hit #1, and the only way to go is down! YOU CAN'T WIN IN THE SHADOW OF THE BIG MAN!!!

If somebody thinks they can come up with a better scenario for that, I'd like to see them try.
