    Today I noticed that I can't see the thanked posts on my User CP is that also part of rep points being taken away?

    A person can still check and see who gave them "Thanks"
    By going to members home page
    Look for the tab "statistics" almost center above user comments
    After clicking on that it will give many options
    One being see who gave you thanks
     
    Cybergal, panhandlepat and RBPC Thank this.

    I think the rep point programs always end up being abused and are never actually used for their inteded purpose..

    on one of the other forums i am a member of (truck enthusiast forum) there is a rep point system and it has been getting abused since the day it was introduced, there are some members with well over 15,000 reputation points, and there is also guys on there that will sit online all day and night and post nonstop in threads that they have made up just to build their post count. there is one guy who's post count is over 120,000, and these guys look at their post counts or the rep points as though they were badges of honor.

    It really is pointless and rather stupid in my opinion.

    Points were never an issue to me. However, I always did like the ability to quickly see where someone had thanked a post.

    Well most of the abuse was coming from the political section.
    we had people getting dotted for posting an opinion and it just got to the point where we had lots of abuse.
