Too hard to become established on the forum?

Super-high rep powers wouldn't be practical on a forum like this though because as soon as you make an enemy (which happens all the time, and people gang up on people etc), you'd be ****** lol. I imagine that's why everyone's rep was halved a while back.

Yeah thats a valid point, i don't think super high would be the right way, but higher could be.

I know what you mean about the post count because i posted like mad to get mine up to a level where people would listen. Rep power i don't pay attention to really it is only something i use to reward people (lol) if they have helped me find something or make a good point. I have started using it more recently and i know most people do a rep return just so people keep giving which i don't have a problem with. I've been on the forum like 3 years and only have 5 from vip rep and posts.

I think the post approval should at least be lowered because 15 is alot for people who don't really know what they are doing.

On hiring people with low post counts i know events and habboxlive are both very good at this because when i was management and had to decided they weren't even looked at until they were pm'd telling them they had the job!

One acceptation to this is mod i think because they have to know the forum and prove to be well behaved and know what they're doing

In regard to reputation I would like to take a far more lenient stance.

Currently:

- 5000 posts
- 600 reputation points
- 365 days (1 year) registered on the forum

for each rep power. You have to rep 50 people before you rep the same person again, quite frankly that's ridiculous.

My Suggestion:

- 1500 posts
- 400 reputation points
- 365 days registered

Reputation spread would be reduced to 20 members. 50, and even 30 is ridiculously high.

I like Garions idea but every Six Months, not every year.. a year is too long

I agree with this
This would make people post more.

6 months then, perhaps? That's probably be as low as I am willing to go.

9 Months, otherwise we'll have the entire year of 2004 with the ability to remove other people's rep power.

[Immenseman]

No, it should certainly stay as a year. That shouldn't be moved. It's rewarding to old members, not just anybody. You don't want to forget them either. They fought for this forum and would be disgraced to see such a change sorry not undertaker lol...

Nah but serious I think it should stay as a year.

I was going to say 6 months
I also think, that rep powers should go up quicker, instead of the blocks.

I think there should be a few more blocks, or make them all go bright green or something.
