Yes, but also the "bad" user will vote "correctly" (although they don't vote what they truly believe, but they vote "the right way" just to increase there rep) and thus increasing their reputation. And in no time everyone will have the same reputation.... making it rather useless...

thats why only certain people should be allowed to rate as dz mentioned (maybe the mods/admins/elites

but that should correspond to an increase in the elite pool, or a new "lower-elite" group. 13 ppl to vote isn't enough.

well then other elites could be added, or whatever..

If the reputation system is used, and only elites and above are allowed to vote, there will definitely be more added.

As for the rest of the new stuff in this thread, there's too many ideas and not enough time to "process" them all in my head.

I'll wait till you all come to some agreement and refine and summarize your ideas, then I'll comment.

Summarized my ideas , Going to the Pub bye

Nah WDZ just do what you think is like you'll soon know if we dont like it

i think the best idea is the leave the post counter on, and add the new reputation system, allowing ONLY the eltes and up to vote. that way we'll be able to tell the 4 things that weere said b4(i forget who and am too lazy to check).

no rep and low post (new member)
Red and High post (spammer)
Green and High post (good person)
Green and low post (respected member, who has a alife )

argh no again.. i remember last time ppl dint want the post counter... again ill say, i love the post counter and very much want it to stay..

with the reputation thing.. i agree with Bach_m.. the way hes put it in the post above is good. but what ever happens, keep the post counter, or der gona be 1 pissed of person over here

How about we keep the post counts, but make the user titles and stars based on reputation instead of posts? I kinda like that idea...

That sounds pretty cool - kinda hinting at billy's idea: maybe a certain reputation level would be allowed to vote?
