Shoutbox

I know, the idea was that you add the respected members. Anyway, think about this, to give everyone a reputation we'd need a lot more than about 20-25 people. We'd need about 50, maybe more.

yeah then maybe a special usergroup would be good
As, as u said, every regular should be able to vote..
but what would be this usergroup's title?

"Respected Members"?

Edit: wow, we've managed to stray from the topic so much, I can't even remember what this reputation system's for.

Not every regular is respected

Then don't add all regulars to it, add regular respected members.

I like user titles to be related to post counts.

But the user titles and stars encourage spamming... n00bs are always asking how many posts they need to get more stars.

Elites and up (and this new group, if it's created) should have a reputation of, say, 20 (fixed(, and every else can be between -15 and +15. Elites (and the new group, if it's created) can alter the reputation by +1 or -1, mods by -2, -1, +1 or +2, and admins by whatever they want. Just my idea.

Surfi actually already added something like that... votes from different groups can have different effects on reputation. Admins could add, for example, 3 points, mods 2, etc.

Not everyone needs a repuatation. Most of the admins/mods/elites read most of the posts on the board. When they see a post they like or don't like, they can simply vote. If there's nothing special about the post, don't vote.

Good idea.

Edit: grr, you type too fast, WDZ.

exactly. i know that i (and alot of others) read as many posts as they can, so we only really need maybe 20 people. i htink that should be fine, considering the number of people who post here in a given week. it can't be that many more than 200, can it?!?

and if ppl dont read that many posts, i have a solution. use a browser that supports tabs (mozilla, mozilla firebird, Avant, MyIE2), and use the latest posts page. very simple

It does put a lot of stress on those 20 though, bach_m. Especially during holidays and stuff.
