When giving cred, Jyters tend to give more cred to the "best qualities" already listed.

By 2 Mitchell on April 29, 2007

This seems to be especially true during situations of "reciprocal cred", in which cred is being given to reward cred received from that person. I end up doing it out of sheer laziness to avoid reading many claims that the person made to think up my own descriptors.

I can only vote & speak for myself.

First, lets say your findings are anecdotal, unless you have something of evidence?

Second - if anecdotal, then I will report my method maybe others too(?) & then you can see evidence.

I try to either give cred with meaning - or I select a high one of my own that may apply.

"communist spy who hates freedom" is one of my favs to give out.

Yes, I was speaking for myself and was wondering if others saw the same pattern of your "best qualities" becoming more and more "accredited" by people whom you have given cred. I suspect that it is because people who want to return cred are too lazy (at least I am) to give original cred.
