My Personal Guide to Farming Rep on .org
This guide is based on what actually worked for me during the two weeks I was posting heavily on the forum. These strategies become even more effective once you already have some reputation, as you start to understand what boosts your rep-per-post ratio.
A lot of users have better rep ratios than me, but most of them stick to the same formula and rarely experiment. That makes sense — if something is working well, why change it? I did experiment a lot and eventually found a system that clicked for me, which I’ll break down below.
Prerequisites:

A lot of users have better rep ratios than me, but most of them stick to the same formula and rarely experiment. That makes sense — if something is working well, why change it? I did experiment a lot and eventually found a system that clicked for me, which I’ll break down below.
Prerequisites:
- You need a minimum daily posting average of at least 100 posts. Without that, nothing in this guide will work properly. The higher your activity, the more people recognize you and the more you’ll get tagged, giving you early opportunities to farm rep.
- You need to type fast. The person who drops the funniest or quickest comment usually takes most of the rep. If you’re slow, you’ll constantly miss out.
The Science Behind Repping Posts
- Bumping is king. Postmaxxers constantly refresh the “What’s New” tab. Every time you bump a thread, it stays visible longer and attracts more eyes. Bumping other people’s threads also makes you look helpful and brings traffic that can rep your own comments.
- Rep-per-post ratio matters more than total posts. The best rep farmers usually have way fewer posts than average. Look at Volksstaffel — solid post count but insane rep because he focuses on high-engagement threads (especially tournaments) instead of spamming comments. One good thread can easily net 25+ rep on the OP and steady reactions on replies.
- Mass bumping works. Some users (like Regulus with his alts) get great ratios by mass bumping their own and their friends’ threads. More bumps = more viewers = more potential rep.
- Controversial clickbait threads are fast rep. Create a thread with a strong bait title, tag around 15 users, and bump it a few times. Topics like insulting certain ethnic groups, race comparisons, NSFW/porn, or “how bad women are” perform well. These give quick rep but usually not massive amounts (around 3 rep per post counting tags and bumps).
- Learn to read the Viral Coefficient. Some threads are destined to blow up. Jump in immediately on threads made by big users, porn/BBC threads, tournaments, exposes, Clavicular drama, or anything involving Regulus. Even a mediocre comment can get rep here because someone will like it anyway.
- High-quality threads still win long-term. Well-written posts with good titles and only 8 relevant tags perform best. For example, in a BBC thread, tag the usual suspects who always argue about it. Their arguments keep the thread alive and bring more rep.
- Early commenting is crucial. Refresh “What’s New” constantly and comment on brand new threads as fast as possible. In my experience, the first few comments have a high chance (around 70%) of getting 4+ rep each.
My Current Strategies
- I mainly create three types of threads: fights, news, and guides — in a 70:20:10 ratio. This mix gives me a consistent ~5 rep per post (including bumps and tags).
- I make guides very rarely, only on obscure or theoretical topics. They’re not for mass rep farming. Mainstream guides get ignored now, so formatting, colors, and strong titles are mandatory if you want any engagement.
- Build relationships with well-known users. Once they notice you, they’re more likely to rep your posts and tag you in threads, giving you first-mover advantage.
- Keep your comments light-hearted and funny. Never get into serious fights — you’ll lose a potential rep source. Stay friendly with everyone and avoid picking sides or joining factions.
- I’ve reduced my posting volume. I went from 450 posts/day in the first week down to around 300 now, and I plan to lower it further. At this point, I care more about rep ratio than total post count.
- I stopped mass tagging because it annoys people and can get you ignored. Mass bumping is still fine though — nobody really complains about it and it helps your own threads.
