O.P. [Split] Reputation System
Ive come with this out of Tashas leaving thread
No flaming "Its a leaving thread bla bla lots of people do it"

[rant]
I think the reputation system needs a review, not just because of people like Tasha complaining about it.
But some of the forum really focuses on it, and its true you only get good rateing for having taste in somthing, being a chick, or having a picture of a chick.
Ill probly even get minus for posting this.
Anyway, i wont press it too heavily but just somthing for the mods and the forum members to consider.

RE: [Split] Reputation System
I  have said to several people on MSN, and a few people have said to me, (and people who aren't signed up say the same), that I think the reputation system should be gone. It causes too much tension, and there are people like me, and others, who don't really care about it, but then there are the ones that are jealous of people with higher reputation, when they have a lower postcount. Reputation and postcount mean not that much to me on here, or on any other forum.

Postcount also becomes somewhat of a competition but i wouldnt want that removed because it sort of shows how active you are..
What ever happened to the good old forums i mean if you look at my joining date back in 03 I joined then and only posted for about a week, but i remember the community being great and helpfull i dont remember ever seeing any sort of fights or complaints.. Then i start posting again half way through 04 and it was okay, and now imo were seeing more of it..

RE: [Split] Reputation System
I made a post on my blog which hinted at my displeasure at reputation being reduced to a mere number. If the rep system must stay, let's hide all the numbers, and instead have ratings like 'Helpful', 'Spammer', 'Average' - y'know, general ratings with a hint of the vague. Also means less to compare with = less to compete with.

Better would be to just hide post and rep from all non full members. Stops them from whining about high post/rep count and also makes it so that they see the forums as they truly are for a little while before they get handed the post and rep counts.

Well. It's staying for now.

If you think it's a bad system, ignore it.
