Would you like reputation to change?

I dont get what you're trying to say there Alex :S

The annoying factor is, one year for a reputation point is just right in my opinion, if you start lowering the post count for +1 reputation power then we go back to point where we were before with all the big posters having crazy powers. And then lowering the amount of rep you have received then gives the older members higher powers again. In some cases i don't see a problem with it as many have earned it and could help newer members if they use the system and so having higher points could be an advantage, although i would be annoyed if the system was scrapped after i worked my way through it for along time.

One of the only fair ways in my opinion if we want to make it easier for new members is to have someone go through and disadvantage the obvious abusers from the past.

Just to add, i agree with two of the points on the poll but i don't think it benefits the opinions of those who stand to loose allot of what they worked for if it was restarted.

Maybe people with INSANE reputations should have their entire reputations picked at, like I said in the other thread, Nick- did it to me and removed 600/4200 rep and that wasn't going through all of it. Some people with like 8000/10000 rep would have alot of pointless rep.

I think it should be...

• 1 Rep Power for every 1000 posts.
• 1 Rep Power for every year on the forum.
• 1 Rep power for every 500 rep points.

1 year should stay
should be 1500 posts and 500 rep points

It will take a long time to do though.

I think that if it resettles the system and fairly, though people will complain, it is a worthy process. But only removing reputation that has been given purely to get each other higher.

[Alkaz]

Im sure that with other forum administrators chipping in it would take a while but no were near as long as just Edan and Brandon doing it so ye, could be worth while if people are willing to do so?
Then, if the changes are made there should be stricter rules on pointless rep or atleast the rules properly enforced.

A lot of my reputation might have no comment but it was actually given for a post I helped somebody with or a good post I made. If you want to check then you'll have to go through every single post and then determine if it's rep worthy. A rep comment means nothing, I know sometimes I just put my name in a rep comment which would be seen as pointless but it's not because the user has helped me

This thread is not about resetting reputation is it? - it shouldn't be reset, it should just be altered so its easier to get a higher reputation power faster. I earned mine and others earned theirs, infact I don't know why 'pointless' reputation is such a big issue, its just a green bar on a forum?
