Disabling Reputation

[Plank]

It would be unfair to allow people to stop receiving reputation when they please. They could make a post which deserves bad reputation, and then disable their rep for a few days.

But then what is the point in disabling reputation at all when all it does it changes the colour from green to black and hides the comments? Nothing changes, you can still get abusive comments which you'll see when you switch back to having your reputation enabled. It would be better, in my opinion, if you could just change the colour because that's all you really get from the current system.

It's pointless - All it does is turns your block black and stops you seeing when people have repped you. People can still rep you, good and bad and you can still rep them; what's the point? :S

to make you look cool like jesus does

[no waiii]

You can still see the number so whats the point?

[Slowpoke]

Exactly, it serves no real purpose...

it just shows some people on this forum can't see sarcasm when it is right on a computer/laptop screen

That aint sarcasm.

That is all the function does, yes. The point is to "hide" your current reputation.

So vB named it badly? It should be "hide rep" rather than "disabled rep"

Thats vBulletin for ya, and you cant actually "disable" it only for the user via admincp and im sure no admin wants to do that all the time.
