Rep Power

[Eoin247]

Totally agree.

I hate to say this again, but am I right in saying massive changes were made last year to make new members feel equal - so 50 rep for management is sort of going against the concept :L

But it is temporary so oh well

True, it would be very ironic if it wasn't temporary.

To me being an admin shouldn't give you more rep power at all. Earn like the rest of us imo.

why's it temp anyway, why not just make it 15.

Jin was testing something, hence the rise. It is only temporarily, not sure how many times that has to be mentioned.

who actually cares about rep anyway

[Slowpoke]

Quite a few people, evidently

[Jin]

Admin reps have been set to 50 to help bump newer members along. I have been looking at some of our more "prominent" rep holders who have a high rep power and a lot of it seems from pointless repping.

So rather than going through member accounts removing pointless reputation which I don't mind I decided I would increase admin reps to help bump newer members along.

Though you do have your right to feedback we also do have our right to make changes and just because people don't agree with them doesn't mean we will change it.

Well that's not what the others said at all lol

It would appear what we thought Jin was doing was wrong

I just love how you and management never say the same thing.

You say it is to bump new members along, but some of us earn our rep - so getting 50 taken off us just because management disagree seems slightly harsh - it would take over 10 people to +rep you to get above that again (using an average).

Are we forgetting, new members should not be given pointless rep

Why not just give new members bonus rep if you suddenly care about them having rep?

[mynameiswootzeh]

can you increase mine too while you're at it so i can give new members good rep? :rolleyes:
