Keeping the rep system will put more work on you mods, but I suppose it'll do well enough if you must still have it.

i agree that rep points are being abused. i think that people should only be able to give positive rep. we dont want people getting offended

You know full well that's not what I'm saying. Gving negative rep is perfectly fine.
Giving negative rep for the sole reason of being mean, or because you have some petty vendetta against someone is not fine.

Yes well it's going to be hard to stop that seeing how it's the people's voice. Saying, "stop the abuse" is not going to do anything, and giving warns for it might cause a commotion.
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - GrooveMan.exe - 07-21-2008
A commotion? We're hardly putting heads on pikes here.
And really we're just extending the 'no flaming' rule to repping as well. You might as well say we shouldn't warn posts for flaming because "it's the people's voice."

Lol, I have been on other forums with the Rep system, they all end up removing it in the end.

Probably because the people aside from on those forums were too retarded to not listen to the rules.
As far as I know, TSR is pretty strict upon there rules, as far as the other forums I have seen.

I apologize for bumping this thread but I think that the rep system shouldn't be deleted-at least we should have a comment system so a person could have conversations with each other. Like what Flare said: I mostly use the rep system as a publicly viewable PM system. I think we should replace the rep system with just a comment system to avoid the "I'm -ve voting you because I'm cool" and the "negative because I'm an ass!" because it just starts to lead to people -ve voting you saying "I want to fit in XD" and "You must be a big loser having all of these negatives"
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - Flare - 08-01-2008
Chdonga you misunderstood my point. I don't think you should use it as a PM system because we have one already.
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - Yoder - 08-02-2008
Besides, are you aware what "PM" stands for?
What you are saying is a public "private message."
Doesn't make much sense, does it?
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - Maxpphire - 08-02-2008
Anyway the rep system has been changed so no one can no longer abuse it for now. If people get around this loophole punishment will happen.
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - mozzy - 08-02-2008
how has it been changed?
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - Cshad - 08-02-2008
And if it has been changed, why not changed to a way where a loophole does not exist?
RE: Enough Rep Abuse, People. - Maxpphire - 08-02-2008
It has been changed to say that if you just say Hi to them or something of that sort it will not let you put the rep down.
Also people can get things to say sir and stuff in other places but they spell it differently and such to make it work. I'm assuming there is a way to get through it but if it is tested then you will be punished.
