I don't recall /droprep ever costing money before. As a tool for helping to get or keep your alignment in place, I was stunned to see about 80% of my hard earned money just vanish as part of the use of that command. Using the /? shows NO warnings about the command having a fee connected to it.

why does it...

adding rep i can understand a fee... lowering your rep has no abusable qualities, it should not cost money.

Stop and really think about what you just said................
It has always cost credits,most of us remember what a pain it was to guard rep a ship befor the droprep command came out.....took me 2 weeks to get my first cruiser sorted out,and 2 trips around Liberty,Bretonia and Kusari..what a pain.

What gafwmn is basically saying is that it's better to just pay the 600k rather than waste all that time having to fix your rep manually.

all he said was basically "it has always cost money and cant exist if it didnt cost money"

I already know it has always cost money, the question was simply "why" does it.

I didnt say "get rid of the drop rep command because we dont need it"... as his response seems to suggest.

Why? Partly along the idea because something that isn't earned has no value. I'm not sure if I agree with this or not but that is the orginal reason I think.

It sure cost alot for so very little effect. It dropped just 2 bars off the top rep I had.

Where do we find the complete list of Commands, their descriptions, and cost now? I had a link to a Wiki page,
http://discoveryfl.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

But it doesn't work anymore.
