Well then the staff needs the check who's doing that and take care of it.
 
The staff knows.

He's too highly respected for some reason for anything to happen.

I think a 2nd bar should be added in and that can only be altered by mods/admins etc, so it's like the "Official" bar of how your posts are, and it will be the mods/admins jobs to rep ALL posts worthy of a good rep or not, not just skip peoples because they aren't their friend.

That way, this bar could be kept, and known more as a friends bar or something.

Eh?
 
hmm... Lion Heart's got a good idea. i say, we either reset all the rep stuff, but keep it, so everyone gets a fresh start, or do what LH said. i'm for keeping it; i love looking at my profile and seeing my blocks, and saying "It's all because of your graphics skills <3" XD oh, and i love it so much that i named my blocks o.o (yes, all eleven xD)
 
Shane dont you think your a little too full of yourself? :\
I wouldnt mind ressetting it,but whats the point? if you dont like your rep or you are getting bad rep just turn it off.
 
Resetting has no point in it.

All the people with high rep will just get the rep straight back really, it might take a week or so, but it'll get there.

I say a secondary bar is the way to go.
 
I agree with you in a way,your right the members who have alotta rep will get it back soon,but there is really no need to not have it.And LH I dont see why you are complaining,you have a decent amount of rep.
 
I'm not complaining about how much rep I have, my complaint is over the abuse of it, I would know how it feels Dakota went beserk on me.
 
Hmm,what I think,is that PC should make a Rep Abuse thread and sticky it. And there you could report someone abusing their rep,and the staff warns them or something.
 
you heard =what i had to say but who gave me rep, please pm me. you must have boosted mine up atleast 650 points
 
Mwar, I like LH's idea. I mean, I haven't made any posts that really deserve rep, and I'm sure the case is the same for a few other people, so the secondary bar would be great to show the people who truly deserve high rep.

Why? As you've seen yourself, staff aren't people to put past being rep abusers. Also, that'd be nearly impossible to implement, seeing as there aren't currently any hacks for this, and even if there were, it'd take quite some time for it to be reinstalled every time we upgrade.

Actually, as I said before, giving out random reps (good or bad) is abuse, and thank you for giving me a basis to argue on. ^_^ Like you said, they'll keep abusing the system until they get all their reputation back, which is more proof that we should get rid of it.

See above. Random reps - good or bad - are abusive. On one hand, nobody would report random good reps, but on the other hand, many members will complain about virtually any bad rep they get, which not only annoys others, but also encourages the abuser to continue abusing, thus expanding the argument.
 
Let's keep the rep. And remember to give me bad rep!
 
didint we just go threw thisat halloween? :shrugs: well heres some ideas I had.

I'm with pory on the rep. I know I'm nice but I'v been given a super high rep for my posts, in many ways I think I do deserve it, but it kinda makes me look like I'v been here a long time and I'v just started becoming active since the start of this monthXD.
I'm really still new to everything and I'v just been hanging around everywhere, Dakota helped me alot in getting to explore but though I know I'm nice, some of the reps really whernt nessesary^^; (Though I must say I thank everyone who gave me reps)
I think it would be a good idea to make it take alot longer to get to the highest goal area, maybe 2000 rep points or something ^^; that way the reputation will be more true to the user and the reputation will be after long priods of time.


.... I think when I joined we got done with this complaint on rep points O_O?!
. But since I'm here and I feel better about things, I just thought I would post my idea ^^;; A little something considering the last time I didint post on this.

However I think all in all the reputation should stay, like the people with more then 2 bad reps on there points I stay away from, who knows what I would be now if I didint see those?
The reputation helps in keeping nice people away from the bad that have horid reputations. And helps in showing who's new to the site and who's most active, I just think it should take a little longer to get to being a amazing rep, cause in my opinion ^^; you guys havent even seen me go threw my worced times. And if I begin with a amazing rep that makes me look like the worlds most honest person, it might catch alot of people off gaurd when I get ticked XD.
I love having my reps , but I do see some loopholes that would be better off if it took a little longer for everyone to get to this rep:points to self:


This post dos not mean I want a lower rep, I'm happy with myself here LOLXD
But I do want to see it take a little longer to get here in the future, it will help alot of confusion.
 
Mwar, I have over 2,000 rep, I think that that's still too little for the top level. Maybe around 5,000 at least.

And, mwar, again, there shoulldn't be so much rep given per increase/decrease. Makes it too easy to look better than ya actually are *points to self*

XD
 
The top level? I assume you mean reputation ranks, right? You reach the final level at 10,000, and right now, there are about five or so people at that level, one of them being me. ^_^; I didn't ask for the reputation though, and now I'm nearly at 13,000. o.o; I'll admit, I was one of many people who liked giving out random good rep, until I found out the true purpose behind rep, after which I stopped.

Shifting to another angle, I wouldn't mind the system if it was more? administered. As in, a maximum of 10 or so rep power per each member, and a limit of 5 reps per day. The lack of rep power limit is why I rarely - if at all - give rep any more. Seriously, 450~ rep power is just too much. =\

Sorry Shinin, but asking for any rep - good or bad - is abusing the system. ^_^;

Mwar, I was referring to the blocks, actually.

And, mwar, Shinin, ya obviously want it? yar also trying yar best to deserve it.
