I agree with most comments,

The requierments should be lower I.E - 1000 posts/400 rep/1 year on the forum.

I also agree with the facts rep is pointless however a few changes would make it noone pointless.

Think about it though, its EASY to get 500 rep points, but incredibly hard to get 2500 posts. So i'm reverting back to 1000.

1000 is too low..

you can get 1000 in 2 weeks if u wanted too.

redneck has 20k posts?

20 rep power just from posts is too much

the lowest I would go to is 2k posts

I still think 2500 is suitable

Redneck is the only person even near to 20k posts, so stop using him as an example.

I have been registered for 2 and a half years, posting almost every day and I only have 3000, so thats 1 rep power. Yet I have almost 4000 rep points. Rep is easier to get than posts.

Stop crying and moaning over it you weirdo

No .

Orignally the posts were at 2500, and some people had like 50 rep power
I dont see how you need to decrease posts.

just increase rep points.
Originally it was 200 per 1 rep power
400/500 is about right

Since the reputation system changed, I don't think anyone has gone up or down in rep power, the explanation why is simple. Before, you had enough rep power to eventually bring people up to the next stage (Jewel in the rough etc.). But now, as the rep power has gone down to on average about 3, and the points to get to 'legendary status' is now 5000, that means about 1666 people must rep you (and thats not including people with under 3 rep power, and over I guess). I doubt many people at all will get repped by 1666 people. The people that are legendary now already had enough rep points from before the system changed. So basicly, it has paused, and won't be moving up or down for a long time.

Another issue is the ways to recieve reputation. To recieve 1 rep power, its per 5000 posts, 600 reputation points & 730 days registered to the forum. Firstly, 5000 posts!? I've been registered on the forum for almost 3 years, and I only have just over 3000, let alone 5000, and how many people on this forum do you know that have 5000 posts or above, not many really (excluding REDNECK obviously...). 730 days, thats 2 years. Most people leave after 1 year, let alone 2 years. And okay 600 reputation points, thats achievable I guess.

So yeah, ask this question to yourself... how many times have you been repped since this system was introduced?

Me :) But I would still like the OLD rep system back.

it seems fine for me and honestly i dont care really as it works for me either way.
