Reputation System

[leah]

I agree that 600 rep points and 5000 posts is a lot, but it would make members work to achieve rep more, it would also make them visit more often. I don't think it should be changed.

In all fairness it's hardly easy to get 500 rep points or 2500+ posts... I think the current amounts are just a bit too excessive - maybe not the post count but certainly the rep points

Perhaps you should half all the current rep everyone has, that way you can increase rep power per rep without harming the system much and allowing early people to get a higher rep power.

Ajusting the rep limit to 500 would make sence imo. Its a more rounded number, and would make rep recived a important aspect of rep power (which i think it should be)

5000 posts is alot, but rewarding post count isnt really what the rep points are for so i think its a good number. I also think the 1 point a year seems about right

Yeah if one element needs to be changed I'd say the points but only to 500. You don't post to get rep power. Maybe that's because 5000 is too excessive for people so if it was lowered maybe people would start posting for rep which wouldn't be pleasant, for anyone

Mmmkay well i read all of that and I think the 5000 posts should stay, because Rep should be about rep not posts? If you want a reward for high posts , you have the Gold stars , sapphire, ruby, platnium etc...

I think lowering it to 500 would be alright but its w/e

and the 1 year for +1 rep should stay as thats good

If anything should change it should be the time it takes to rep the same person twice. If it is still 50 which i think it is :S then i think it should be 25 or 30. (If this has been changed to 10 like someone said or w/e then ma bad).

Also its just rep tbh mine is terrible and it doesn't bother me 1 bit i post cuz i want too not for rep so who rly cares tbh. AND 1 more point ur rep rly depends on what sections u visist because for example alot of people have higher rep in spam but if u dont visit spam and visit a section with alot of people with lower rep then it will obviously be harder for you too gain rep if you understand what im saying.

Leave reputation alone tbh.

The only thing that should be changed is the amount you need to rep before you can rep the same person again. As it is, every second time I say "+rep" I end up editing it to "sorry, need to spread". And it just leads to people spreading it by giving out random rep anyway.

I could also live with the +600 points being decreased to +500, just for the sake of it really .

Leave the +5000 posts or whatever it is and +1 year as they are though.

Actually now that you mention it, I recently wroked out that I'm supposed to have another rep block. Does anyone know whether I'm correct or not? (I have 1295 points).

rep system has lost all impact now so it doesn't really matter. i'd say change it if you want to revive it, not excessively but like 500. then again users would jump up the ladder and form high-rep social groups just as the kkk once did lol ^_^
