Could we increase the limit required to vote to about say ... 500
easy to say when you have 13xx posts, no offence
Dont get me wrong .... im all for the good users who dont misuse it but there are people who actually post just to reach that 100 figure mark and to gain votes from others. I think the rep system is good. It gives that something to the forum and makes it close as it is. Most of us have atleast 4 - 5 + members who are good friends. Even if you have been a regular member for a month or two you will have good friends here
And btw ... none taken
I think we could have a minimum limit to vote to .... yea there are so many points to say no to like there are good members having 10 - 20 votes but c'mon.
We could have a group of unbiased, respected forum members for rep viewing .... If 2 - 3 of them say that the rep aint valid then its not. Every rep has to be seen once. If a repmod says its not ok then another repmod looks at it. That one says yes to then its scrapped.
I know its gonna increase the load on ppl but thats the olny way i see apart from increasing the minimum vote revieving and/or giving limit and/or scrapping the whole system itself (for which i am not cause i already said it kinda holds us together in a weird way)
And btw .... 500 posts .... was just a random number nitemare .... i wasnt saying it should be that much ... just that it should be increased
If you do implicate a system like this more people will spam to X amount so they can give rep...
