Because we all want to 'look good' in others' eyes, no matter how much we protest otherwise.
I'm not buying the constant 'I don't give a shit' regarding getting respect or looking good. Ironically, when I said that about that point system, the very ones who are claiming I did (I really don't because I don't get it, number one and number two, my selfworth isn't based on a little icon in a forum saying how wonderful I am-that has to come from within) are now claiming over and over that they don't...give a shit.
What I say to them is the same thing they think they were telling me-stop defending your actions(in doing so, you know they weren't stellar). Either fix the problem and move along or STFU.
Sticking a password onto a forum comprised of slamming others tells me they
are embarrassed and give a shit. Don't deny-repair.
We are all responsible for what we do. And, like it not, it affects others and reflects on us as human beings.
