-rep suggestion

[Hecktix]

I've always liked the idea of a 'like' system, but I don't want all my rep to go.

I prefer the rep system, it's the same really you get +rep for good posts, if people like your posts they +rep you, you get reputation points to show for this.

Perhaps remove -repping, but warnings and infractions -rep you . This penalty stays when the infraction ends.

Or just keep -repping and do what i said anyway.

YAH

I just completely forgot that it now tells you how many people have repped you at the bottom of whatever post.

Yeah, the rep system is fine now then.

i think this is a great idea. It removes a point from you for minus repping them.

There are some forums, which allow you to -rep
But if you -rep someone, you lose a point too, so people only -rep when really required.

Another possibility could be that if you -rep a person, you get a -rep too, deducting your rep power from yourself.

Would stop older people with higher rep pointlessly -repping (not saying you do)

Good idea to remove it tbf , most people who -REP Just give it back

When you -rep, does it take half of your rep power from their tally? I think -repping would be more suited for it to take a bigger chunk out, rather than a smaller amount. Think about it, you do a bad post, not much happens to your rep. Being able to take a bigger chunk out may cause people to not post unconstructively. It would also bring around the whole thing mentioned earlier, about the 'trust' and stuff.

I disagree with this, in short.

rep has nothing to do with trust

alot of people with high rep i wouldnt trust with a penny, basic trust on rep is wr0ng

it takes half your power and takes it off them

If you go onto a new forum, you wouldn't trust a guy with red rep blocks would you?

And thought so.

I wouldnt base trust on rep blocks

Someone could be severely hated, but safe as hell..
