Something I think would be cool for Music Banter would be reputation. Several forums I go to have it, and I think it's a great way to make the forums more fun, plus rep can be a good indicator whether someone is a good poster or not. You could use green for good rep, and red for bad rep.
I know some people think this will cause unnecessary drama, but come on. Are we really that immature that we get offended by a little red square on the internet? |

I suggested a "thnx' button feature here and it turned into a whole "why be a suck up" argument, you would think a harmless idea like that or yours would only benefit the site but the ppl here don't want it or else we would already have it.

This has been brought up a few times before. I post regularly on another forum that has a 'thanks' system in place. Quite often what it does is encourage people to 'thanks whore' and make posts that are of no worth other than to get as many thanks as possible. I think something like this will have a negative effect here.
If you want a good indicator of whether a person is a good poster or not, read their posts and make your own mind up.

There is something already in place for someone with a bad reputation, but it's not red indicator where every can see it ... it's the ignore list. And if someone has a very, very bad reputation there is a line through the name indicator. If you find someone with a bad reputation and they annoy you, then just use the tools the forum already has and put them on your ignore list. On the other had you might find someone with a bad reputation and he or she amuses you, you might not want to do that and read her or his stuff for lulz. I think that there is more personal freedom if you choose who your favorite members are than to have a forum full of member (that you might not agree with a majority of the time) deciding for you.

Music Banter is not the right place for it (based on the personalities here). Also, it will be like a popularity contest, people will be butthurt if they have a bad reputation score. If it's not broke, don't fix it.
