I think the person who recieves +rep / -rep should be allowed to know withouthcvip on the forum and others cannot. But you should be able to share -rep / +rep without getting warned, making it your choice if you share it.

Agreed with the + and - thing, even if nothing else changes it'd be nice to see that finally introduced :P.
I will just say, I am thinking of a forum with a much much larger active userbase which has an up vote button. But even so, to get 50 rep won't always take just 1-2 people because when I get rep sometimes it's just 1-10 points. And also another thing to mention, with a like system the amount of points you have surely wouldn't be as important if rep power is capped? At the moment there's no highest rep power, but let's go with the highest a user has which is 67? A new user trying to get to that rep power may as well just give up before they start trying. But under my proposed system, the highest rep power would be something like 3 or 5 and it'd actually be a possible challenge for a new user to try and reach that status :).

If the system changes, it doesn't have to be changed to show publically who has liked a post - and tbh I'd also rather it didn't :P.
Decided I would definitely not want non-VIPs seeing who repped them - merely because it would take away a feature from VIPs who may have paid/won that privilege.
Whilst I would love to call out an unfair poll, I honestly cannot see how this could really be misleading. Most, if not all, of the people who have voted are established members of the forum who are not totally stupid (well, arguably ;)) I think the results clearly show users still want the rep system (and yes, I was originally in favour of a like system on certain grounds) - so I guess you are right, it would now make sense to look at those other areas that you mentioned :)
Agree here - would like to see how many -reps a post has had, but now agree with no names being listed - simply because that is a VIP feature :)
Keep it as it is.
Right, so does anyone have any other concerns? These are four questions that need to be asked (cheers, Chippiewill). Any other stuff, then I or someone else can make one (hopefully final) thread on it, to get a consensus..
- Reputation Power Inflation
- Displaying the number of -reps
- Publicly Displaying Reps
- Rate limitation of reps
why would you need to make another thread, you're never going to get a consensus, it's habbox. :P
I'm trying to avoid the "it was unfair", "management just did what they wanted" - get some normal members to run the thought process which may help :L As there are differing opinions, it makes sense to try and meet somewhere in the middle (but obviously on the rep system, as that is the majority so far ;)). This thread has effectively achieved its aim, in finding out whether the majority want likes or reps.
