The report system was removed? o.o; Just the "PM-gets-sent-to-staff" part, or the whole thing? And why?

We still have a report system o.O I mean, it's different to how it used to be ages ago, but it's still there.

I think maybe he's confusing it with the reputation system? We were talking about it a while ago.

Jolty-kun January 4th, 2007 2:41 PM

The report system was removed?
Then why can I still send reports? o.o
Or won't it get through? o_O

Edit:
Reputation? Oooh, old times. XD

Abby3563663 January 4th, 2007 2:48 PM

Ohh, yeah, rep. I never had nearly enough of that, if I can recall. XD; Didn't you set up some sort of restriction on it before it was removed? Like how much could be given per day and stuff?

parallelzero January 4th, 2007 2:53 PM

Rep, eww... That was a real pain in the butt near the end of its run. Too many people crying about things like "I got bad rep and I didn't deserve it" and "He flamed me in my rep!!!1111 ;.;!" We probably could have kept it if everyone had behaved. oo;

Took me two months, but I finally made a new banner and avy set~

Back then, I didn't like reputation, I really got tired of it and thought it was taken out as a joke.
I really wish I hadn't thought that now, I just realise how stupid I was, back then. XD;
Not like my opinion would affect anything.. xD

Hey Abby, do you remember me? :P
Probably not, I wasn't completely active until the time near that you left.

I only got rep boosts when I started posting in the DCC and it usually for crappy posts..XD All my long, meaningful and thoughtful posts generally went unrewarded. XD

Yeah, if I recall correctly, there was a limit to the amount of rep that members could give each day. I think it was somewhere in the region of 10-12 reps. And you were only able to rep someone again after you repped about 8 different people, to prevent rep cheating or whatever.

EDIT: I want the rep back. I don't care about the immature whiners, screw them XD

Not really, I'm afraid. ;_; I remember your name being mentioned a lot, but not really you.

That's the spirit, Dawson. 8D
Okay, Abby. xD
But yeah, I do remember the occasional thread about someone giving someone bad reputation, but there was some real competition.
Plus people were going back and forwards on accounts positive repping themselves, as much of a competition it was, people just played it wrong. x__x;

It's awesome. I love Ichigo's hollow. :P

If rep returned, hmm... I don't know. I may or may not turn it off again this time.

Persona January 4th, 2007 3:06 PM

Don't care much about the rep, although I haven't been here long enough to have actually experience it being here on PC. NF still has their rep function, and I kind of found it a mess there. People complain giving someone negative rep, usually because people don't leave their names when the other recieves it. When requesting an avatar/banner from a graphics shop, people have to give credit and rep to that person once their done making their theme. I don't know, wasn't rep something only given when identifying someone as a good or bad member?

I'll whine like a whining whiner about the whiners if I want to, thank you.

Which is why I said we should bring back the rep system but disable the points so everyone is grey. That way people will waste their own effort if they try to abuse it because they wont gain any bars. And the members who used it correctly can still get the rep comments and feedback for their posts.

Abby3563663 January 4th, 2007 3:13 PM

But if you just turned it back on with no bars for giving feedback, wouldn't that be pointless? Couldn't you just post or PM the person?

Repping is a lot easier and quicker though. And not many people would PM someone just to say "That was a good post" XD

Ullion January 4th, 2007 3:17 PM

xD Rep? I defintely wasnt here for that, was that from back in 05'?

And Origin, the theme looks awesome xD
o.O I havn't watched bleach though, it looks like a cool show (i watched the second episode adn the third episode adn that was it), but i just don't watch it, maybe i will tonight, sicne they come on during fridays... =P

Yeah, but if everyone starts with grey reputations, how would they be able to post? o_o

They could still post o.O

Paige, rep was finally gotten rid of about June/July 05. Dunno when it started though.

22sa January 4th, 2007 3:22 PM

I agree I would care even less about rep if it wasn't honored in public, and just another form of PM. :\

Abby3563663 January 4th, 2007 3:23 PM

Yeah, '04 and at least part of '05. What would you go for, Paige? I think I like mine...cept the way her fingers cut off. Drives me nuts. Wish I had noticed that before I finished it. ;;

ZerØ Rhythm January 4th, 2007 3:23 PM

I've never been part of a forum with a repping system before. Sounds like a good idea if they brought it back to this forum. Maybe even add a 'de-repping' system. Though that could prove troublesome.

There's one thing I'm curious about. I've seen many people do this around here: 'XD'. What's that supposed to mean...?

The Fallen January 4th, 2007 3:23 PM

Don't think we'll ever bring back rep. We actually talked about it once and we all said it'd be a headache to bring back the cause of most of our problems.

And I, for one, would feel like an idiot doing that. And reps can be anonymous, if people don't wanna reveal who they are for whatever reason.

Yeah yeah, okay. xD; The point is, I don't see a lot of people who wouldn't post/PM using it for just that. Or something. I dunno.
