A Blast From the Past

[GreyPilgrim he/him]

Hey there Sharders! Who remembers me?

This new site is confusing.

Long live the glory days of 2013/2014 17th Shard!

Who still remembers the old reputation system (have the admins created a new new one yet?)?

(Do not take this as a sign of my imminent return; I was merely bored/procrastinating and ended up here and here we are.)

[Straw he/him]

Welcome back! Have you checked out the new and improved Sanderson elimination?

[Bernard he/him]

What is the difference between this reputation system and the old one?

Hey Straw! What's new in Sanderson Elimination?

Bernard, I can no longer recall what the names of the reputations were, but they were quite different before and changed much less frequently (and one would reach the highest reputation level at a number of upvotes much lower than the current highest one; this was a time when there were half as many members on the site using it much less rabidly than people do now, and people were generally more stringent with upvotes).
