No, if people have high rep power it has numerous knock on effects which is why the system was reduced.

If member A had 49 rep power and member B had 48 rep power; they could rep each other meaning they gain large amounts of rep points. With the large amounts of rep points; it makes it easier to get another rep power, which makes it gradually worse and worse.

If Habbox left it like it was, you'd be getting members getting a new piece of rep power each time they got repped.

And if a new member gets negative repped, it'd take them ages to get back into the positive.

I could have sworn I've seen this thread before.

It's all just numbers, if you bump the rep power up you need to bump up what it takes to get it to keep it all in balance. Doesn't matter if it 2 rep power or 2000 as long as it's balanced.

I think that having to get 600 rep points just for 1 rep power is just to much. 5000 posts is very high aswell!

This would be more reasonable:

2500 posts per 1 rep power.
400 rep points per 1 rep power.

Or maybe that's a little to light, but the point is that the amounts needed at the moment are very high end and it wouldn't hurt anyone to bring them down a little. I mean, I have a rep power of...2. :rolleyes: Me repping someone is nothing compared to how many more rep points they need for there next block/power.

And there is only a small handfull of users with an extremely high rep power so we would just have to accept that it will go even higher if this idea was put into place. We can't let just a few people spoil the whole forum's fun! :8
