Rep System (single, members)

Danny · 06-08-2007, 02:07 PM

This is just an idea but I have seen many rep systems on vbulliton forums, it would be cool to have here....not necessary but it would be cool.

I thought so too a while back...not many agreed.*sigh*

Danny · 06-08-2007, 02:13 PM

Well it would be cool...I don't see the problem with it, it would encourage people to make better posts.

I think we should have it, I would OWN that shizz

Every single post is GOLD

Here's what would probably happen:
People would give out rep points to members they are friends with, even if in reality they didn't deserve any.
Ultimately leading to a rep system that wouldn't accurately reflect reality.

Unless there was another way of doing this...I'm against it.

I think that's bull****...we all know each other pretty well and I for one am willing to give the benefit of the doubt to our members that they wont behave so childishly...

I'm on another forum that has it, and I think it's a fun addition to the site. It motivates you to post (intelligently) and gives people the opportunity to let you know they disagree with you without having to argue too much, or let you know they appreciate you...either way, if you don't take it too seriously, it can't go wrong.

I think if we had it so only mods could award reps and the members just PMed the mods or we made a thread for them to post the posts-worthy of it it would be fine, I could see some serious abuse otherwise.

i think its unnecessary, i think if people just post intelligently in general they get treated with more respect.

do we actually have to give people a reward for posting something interesting or intelligent on a music forum, i was hoping people would want to do that

adidasss · 06-08-2007, 05:13 PM

It's just a bit of fun man.
