It may not sound hinting to you and that may not be your intention. But these boards are cropping up a lot and I have seen people giving rep to help a user meet a certain rank.
And the board wasn't posted to single out you two, it was to the whole of clraik.

i rep guide for good data
Thanks for this. I know I said I was 2 away from Clraik, and then I felt bad about it. But I'll help be on the lookout for people hinting and asking.
The point of guides should be to help the community, not to get rep. So even if you are asking for guide ideas, rep shouldn't be included in the post.
On a similar point, am I the only one who isn't a fan of people saying things like "+Rep if it helped"? I mean, if I want to rep then I will. I'm less likely to if they ask for it like that.
They ask +Rep if this helped, because people here do not Rep commonly.
I thought you aren't allowed to say +rep if it helped because it's considered asking for rep.
i'm just looking at where all these comments are coming from....
Edit: I don't mean to be rude but the point of making a guide is to gain rep. No one's acting otherwise or being noble about it. Just be subtle, it's rude and is ruining the concept as a whole esp when you're not even putting effort into it, I guess that's what cara and sherri is trying to say.
