You will soon be able to nominate your paper on the new voting system. Hopefully later today.

...Davy Jones....this is a brilliant little creation of yours! the reputation system has long been the pillar of any social creature....it seems that when societies get too large or communities too alienated from one another, we aspire to place lawbooks as a substitute - which invariably fails due to the notion that such legal matters as "proof" and "evidence" are tragically innaccurate...as well as the notion that legislation allows for no 'grey' areas.
well done old chap. well done.

Hello athenonrex, I enjoyed the signature 'every villain is the hero of his own story'. (I have taken the liberty of correcting the spelling of 'villain')
Is it the function of our egos to make our narrative of ourselves coherent even at the cost of rewriting memory/history in a manifestly revisionist version?
I know some highly intelligent and usually scrupulously honest people who have done this from time to time, seemingly quite unconsciously. I suspect we ALL do this occasionally.
It seems to happen when we behave 'out of character'. It's perhaps worth noting that, in dramatic or written works, characters who are perfectly consistent in all their thoughts and actions are commonly perceived as 'cardboard cutouts' and not very credible.
