Reputation system....Request.... by RebelSean on 10-18-2004 at 10:12 PM

Hmmm, some people are giving 1 word details when giving a reputation like Yay or wow or something like that...What about a minimum thing were the reputation cant be stupid, say like it has to be more than 5 or so words? It's stupid to give a negative reputation like yay....Like traxor :rolleyes:......It realy bugs me..

RE: Reputation system....Request.... by WDZ on 10-18-2004 at 10:15 PM

Well, I actually coded a feature to require comments, but I disabled it for testing. :p So at the moment, you can even leave the comments field blank. I'll probably change that soon.

I insist in making it moderable (and reportable) for mods and admins. :rolleyes:

* Concord Dawn thinks that there is going to be abuse of reporting system for rep system,

I agree...But have it were you can report stupid reputations like Yay, or cause I can...No offense to anyone who has done that ( I think I have done it, dunno) but I think its stupid to do that...:)

If that much work has to be done to keep the reputation system online, I'm not going to keep it online. It's not important enough.

Also, I imagine that if every reputation vote had a report link by it, there would be many unnecessary reports wasting the time of moderators.

The hard-coded anti-abuse functions should be able to keep it under control... if someone insists on abusing it, they will be banned. If many people insist on abusing it, it's getting disabled. :p

If a report button is added, people will report every rating they don't agree with.

"Whaaaat??? He rated [XXXXX] negative with all the good things he's done for the community??? That's so wrong"

RE: Reputation system....Request.... by RebelSean on 10-20-2004 at 07:15 PM

I see your point Guido, but like I said, someone gives you a negative vote and says "yay" or 'cause I can', theres no point in it. And let me suggest this, if and when there is a report button added, and people abuse it, just like restirct that person from reporting them?

Why not just restrict people from voting when they give dodgy reasons? Get to the root of the problem... :p

Or you can do that :p..Anyways, you plane on doing something about this ?
RE: Reputation system....Request.... by Menthix on 10-20-2004 at 07:36 PM

The way i see it everyone has the same change to get a dodgy negative rating. So there isn't anything unfair. Other then that your ratings does not effect anything you can or can't do on the forum.

I think getting negative votes, even when they have a dody reason added to it, says something about what other members think about you. But don't depend too much on your rating, it's just a fun feature in the end. If people are braking the forum rules with their votes or if they systematically give people dodgy votes then i agree that action should be taken. But i don't see anything in strictly moderating ratings.

I agree with you on that one, but still the point is people giving dodgy negative vote, there is just no reason for it.  It will just take away from your count, even if its high it will just slighly change it, but still the point of the reputation is to give your oppinion about that user, but just to go voting around giving negative votes for no reason at all.

He was saying if a report button was added, it would only be for mods and admins, not for regular members like me or sean or anyone else in that catagory.

I don't really see why we need it. It only causes disputes.

RE: Reputation system....Request.... by kangie on 10-21-2004 at 07:40 PM

um... i had some valid stuff to say about the above, but the thread i said it in has been deleted, and i cba to type it all out yet again... :/ im on another forum, where regular members cannot rate.... why not do that? (as proxy said), or do as seggy said, because who cares about the rating? i dont even know how to see ppls ratings, and i dont care what mine is, it doesnt affect the fact i used to help on the irc chat lots. im sure people would still like me if i had heaps of negative feedback, because its one persons judgement. people shouldnt be so uptight, its only the internet...

Agreed and for that you can have a positive point :refuck:

Nah I'm going to try and keep away from it tbh.  I made my point with it and now I'm not interested.
RE: Reputation system....Request.... by Concord Dawn on 10-22-2004 at 03:41 AM

Like DZ said, if he's going to have to moderate every reputation post. Then just chuck the whole system out like a dodgy banana. I think that the report ratings should be for elites/mods/admins/cool people like me :refuck::P.

RE: Reputation system....Request.... by .Roy on 10-23-2004 at 06:17 PM

im interested in the reputation system... It helps people want to stay on good behavior and not spam as much so they will get -1

also the reputation system is great how it is... The only lack it has is that i would love to see the rating under the stars in the avatar area ;)

leave it how it is :-P But please make my suggestion by adding the rating on the avatar area under the stars :-P.

wdz said that it would be added eventually;)
Not under the stars though, probablybelow the post counter, somewhere on these lines
RE: Reputation system....Request.... by _Humphreys on 10-23-2004 at 11:18 PM

Yes this would be good lol I am so lazy I can't be bothered to go to my profile to look at my rating or to rate someone else lol but for now it's ok WDZ.:)

RE: Reputation system....Request.... by Concord Dawn on 10-24-2004 at 02:08 AM

WDZ is lazy. Stop making requests of him. DZBB is already really good, why make it better?
