Good point, forgot 'bout that.

In my OTHER opinion, maybe it shouldn't be -5 but -10. -5 is a bit too much.

I meant vise-versa...
oh hello I seem to have went on to another debate on how we can solve this in other way since according to mr. sprite moderator here its hard to pull off.
I think -5 would be fine, if you haven't noticed the only well liked member here with a negative reputation is Robbydude, everyone else with a negative rep generally earns their rep and if they have a few good members saying "This person has flaws that most of us can't get along with" then most likely we are not gonna help them anyway.

But keep in mind that this actually can't be done in the admin CP so it isn't like you guys have anything to worry about anyway.

No see
I said impossible
(because it is). Last I checked, you can't base viewing or posting privileges on REPUTATION POINTS (a removable feature)

And 20 posts is fine, you're all being way too picky about this. WHILE WE'RE AT IT, LETS JUST TELL EVERYONE WITH UNDER 500 POSTS AND 40 REP THAT MAKING A REQUEST IS A BANNABLE OFFENSE, AND I DON'T JUST MEAN YOUR ACCOUNT GETS BANNED, I MEAN YOUR IP GETS BANNED TOO Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin
If you don't like that explanation, try this:

The only people who make a request and still manage to be "bad posters" after 20 posts won't be around the forum that long to begin with. If you can't tolerate someone's posting on an internet forum, we DO have a block feature that grants you the privilege of never having to see their posts
Oh no 1up made an angry post, I sure hope he had a valid reason for doing so!!!
Look, what I *can* do, is base the promotions to the Honorary Member ranked based on time registed to the forum. It does not solve the problem of bad members who have been around a long time; but that's the best you're gonna get tbh.
