The reputation system - paused.

[jackass]

Okay, I know we have only just had this huge argument not that long ago, I don't want it changed back to the way it used to be, thats not what i'm about to ask, so don't start making posts flaming me about that.

Since the reputation system changed, I don't think anyone has gone up or down in rep power, the explanation why is simple. Before, you had enough rep power to eventually bring people up to the next stage (Jewel in the rough etc.). But now, as the rep power has gone down to on average about 3, and the points to get to 'legendary status' is now 5000, that means about 1666 people must rep you (and thats not including people with under 3 rep power, and over I guess). I doubt many people at all will get repped by 1666 people. The people that are legendary now already had enough rep points from before the system changed. So basicly, it has paused, and won't be moving up or down for a long time.

Another issue is the ways to recieve reputation. To recieve 1 rep power, its per 5000 posts, 600 reputation points & 730 days registered to the forum. Firstly, 5000 posts!? I've been registered on the forum for almost 3 years, and I only have just over 3000, let alone 5000, and how many people on this forum do you know that have 5000 posts or above, not many really (excluding REDNECK obviously...). 730 days, thats 2 years. Most people leave after 1 year, let alone 2 years. And okay 600 reputation points, thats achievable I guess.

So yeah, ask this question to yourself... how many times have you been repped since this system was introduced?

It's fine as it is, it's only rep. It doesn't make you feel powerful for having a big rep power :eusa_whis

yeh but the rep looks tupid lol.

600 rep is a lot tbh. thats a rough average of 200 people. i doubt ive even done that lol.

True it is only rep.
but theres no point having rep on this forum if we cant move up or down.

I think posts should be moved to 3000 per 1 rep power
rep points to 400 per 1 rep power
and every 365 days again.

I personally would say...
1000 posts.
500 rep points.
1 year.

i dont get y it was changed in the first place?
i dont reli rep ppl now, only when i post a thread saying +rep as its kinda pointless tbh. ive probably repped around 5/6 ppl since the new systems been introduced?
