| Sep 12, 2011 at 13:35 | comment | added | jk. | I think this addresses the chat part of the question but not the comment part, which is a bit less clear to me as comments ate inextricably linked to their questions and answers | |

| Dec 23, 2010 at 2:46 | comment | added | The Unhandled Exception | +1 Jeff, not because I agree with your disagreement about mootinator's idea, but for so eloquently describing your philosophy of chat, which I tried to explain but did so much more cruedly. | |
| Dec 23, 2010 at 2:14 | comment | added | TCPMAN.EXE | I might get a reputation at work or home for being a [Drunk] if I take too many free drinks at the bar. Perhaps some sort of commendation which costs a small amount of rep to give, and maybe a badge for having received several would be a better metaphor. | |
| Dec 23, 2010 at 1:55 | comment | added | Jeff Atwood | @moot drinks are usable only at the bar, unless your workplace allows beers. That's part of the problem with this scheme you're proposing -- stuff from "home" and "work" bleeds over into the bar. It's no longer a third place. | |
| Dec 23, 2010 at 1:34 | comment | added | TCPMAN.EXE | If I go to a bar with coworkers, I can certainly buy one I appreciate a drink. This isn't a different reward system from work, as the drink costs money. I don't think my buying someone a drink makes the bar about money. | |
