Guido, nice-looking examples.

Blah... we already have positive, neutral, and negative... let's not make this too complicated. I'm even wondering if the neutral option should exist at all. If you don't want to change a user's reputation, don't waste your time voting!

I think we've also decided that comments should be optional...
I guess that would be OK, as long as you're giving a positive or negative vote. Another doubt I'm having about these ideas is, why show the comments to everyone? In the regular MyBB system, the comments can only be viewed by the user they're about. I dunno if that's good or bad... a little of both, I suppose.

Afraid you're going to get a bad reputation?
I might allow everyone to vote but use the "7 days after registration" limit that was suggested, but that would stop new members from voting for people who help them, and the abuse problem is still there if the abusers are patient.

but wouldnt comments take up alot of the room in the datbase? cause thers like 20000+ members here and even if only like 200 had comments ther could also be a good 150 comments for each user (doubt it) cause the thing i dont want to come out of this rating system is a server load message.
Hmm... I really don't think you need to worry about that.
