Reputation Points

I vote yes also. tjgosurf reminded me of why we removed the rep feature on the car club forum I mod for. You reprimand someone for a rules infractions and they get all their little cronies to bad rep you. We also found friends were just good rep'n each other for no reason. Became a friends 'click'.

 

Question, I don't see the link to give rep anymore. Does that appear after so many posts? or am I just not seeing it? (I do have to get my eyes checked)

Edit: Never mind. I see it. The little balance scale across the top of the post. :\

 

Well, I wondered what the little green dots were about, and I kind of kept watching for a Pacman figure to come across the screen and chew them up. Actually, I seem to have one green dot, so Pacman must have come by at some point.

In all seriousness, they are kind of immaterial to me. Whether highly though of or not, I would be giving the same info. I have seen rating systems abused elsewhere though, so there has to be some consideration given to how they are managed and monitored. They are to indicate reputation and quality of advice given, not just be a popularity contest.

 

Actually I thought the green lights were telling us when the Surveillance camera was in use....So I don't have to keep smiling now so much?

 

I give back to all that give to me!

DOES EVERYONE KNOW HOW TO CHECK THERE REPUTATION POINTS AND WHO GAVE YOU POINTS??
IF YOU DON'T.......
WHEN YOU FIRST LOG INTO THE FORUM, UP AT THE TOP LEFT YOU WILL SEE....USER CP....CLICK ON THAT AND AT THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE PAGE IT SHOULD TELL YOU WHO GAVE YOU POINTS AND YOUR POINT COUNT.

 

I think a reputation is good. I just hope with all my debates recently, I will be able to maintain a decent rep.
