Rep Boxes?

[purple_goat]

alright,
it seems as tho every one hate post whores so:
what about instead of "pips" for posts how about one pip per X number of helpful posts i.e.
someone is new and they are having a problem and someone writes a page (complete with smilies )
and explains what they need to do.
someone gives them a point (as I said X number of points = 1 pip)

maybe mods are the only one who can hand these out,
or maybe X number of posts you get one point to give a point
or maybe days (registered) say:
1 for the first 30 days
1 every week for 6 months
2 a week for a year
3 a week for 1 year and 6 months
ulimited, also unlimited for gurus and mods

:unsure:

what do you guys think?

There are mods for some forums for things like that where you can "applaud" a person for their posts that you deem good or "scorn" them from ones that you don't think are helpful.

Honestly, I think you can just tell who's a helpful member and who isn't just by reading their posts. No need for "pips" or karma systems or anything.

i like the idea of replacing the post count meter with a rep meter. Just make sure its limited to one rep point per hour and make sure one person cant spam another persons rep so that if you post 1 rep point on a person you cant post another rep point on the for 24 hours.

We are already looking into a user rating system, Hando tried one one already but there were problems, I think he's still looking into this type of idea though.

 

[lubidog]

But we shouldn't 'rate' users on simply how much they post. The best posters here are the ones who chose their words carefully, not just spam each thread!

I agree with the rest, get rid of the pips.

I think this is pointless and could of been in the other topic, as its the exact same subject. It's like you took a reply designed for there and made an entirely different topic about it

True. I thought I was replying to the other topic! PG, calm down man!

So you're trying to get rid of yourself?

 

[abertalia]

I kinda like this idea....Too bad it will never happen. Actually, why do we even have a suggestion thread if nothing gets answered to?
