Rep Power

[AgnesIO]

Not exactly a big deal but anyway..

Why have admins got a higher rep now? Seems slightly pointless, why do you increase it every time members start to get more rep than management?

Fair enough if Jin and Sierk want 5 billion rep - they pay for the website after all. Just seems slightly pointless, and takes the entire point out of rep if you just give it to people who could potentially be very unpopular?

i agree, like hell oli has 50 rep power pfft

As I said in spam, I don't really have a problem with the 15 being increased but I think 50 is a bit too much! Matt did say that it may not be permanent though.

-Reps everyone in this thread for a laugh but don't worry, it shouldn't be here for much longer either way.

I have a disliking of this rep level, waaaay over the top.

I personally think administrators should really have their rep set to one.

Setting it to one is stupid and I hope you are joking.

A while back it was changed so administrators could have the rep power they have earned as for most of us this was higher than 15 anyway, I believe Jin changed it to 50 a few days ago to test something so I'm sure he will change it back when he has finished

How so? They should have no need to +rep or -rep other people since they should be listening to other peoples opinions fairly and without bias.

rep isnt just for opinions, eg. if they ask where they could buy a laptop and someone shows them

Not all admins -rep users, I don't for one. Regardless of rep count, we should all have access to be able to +rep or -rep users on the forum. Plus, how are we suppose to +rep people that way for us liking their suggestion or anything else that +rep can be used for. (Don't say admincp)
