Alternative To Original Reputation System

Add a counter under "Posts" that says "Woots Received"

Shows how many collective woots you've received.

It's basically a "nerfed" reputation system for the people that start crying when they receive a neg, because in this system, you can't neg anyone

But still works as a reputation system because it will show total positive woots

In addition, staff won't even have to monitor it

Maybe it if became too "competitive" it could only show on profile pages.

They could add an option for you to hide it or show it

woots / post = Reputation

considering how many posts people made before the addition of woots would ultimately destroy reputation

Or just leave a woot counter, a perfect popularity system.

Does anyone actually have a problem with the old rep system?

gkaby · 2016-04-01 02:32:15

i dont have a problem with it

iirc the main problem was that people would enable rep minus rep someone then disable it

err i guess also the fake spam rep

maybe you could disable rep for new accounts to avoid rep spam stuff if that would even work or work as a solution and maybe you could make it so u have to wait before switching rep on/off every time u switch it so ppl dont get upset at that

My solution would be to make it so when you disable your own rep then every rep you've given is disabled too, but I don't know how possible that is.

I like this idea and while I've never seen the inner workings of the rep mod, it sounds possible.

I don't think anyone had a problem with the old rep system, and if there were any, it was the minority in the community

I've never liked the reputation system, it didn't really incentivize creativity as intended.

But it created drama and the forums can always use a little more drama.

That's why unless it's complete spam like "." or "afgagf" or against some other rule we say screw it and let them deal with it.

Reviving this topic because I would like for the original reputation system to come back but all the arguments I have for it are already listed in this topic

You could have prevented this.

You waited too long and now it's here.

You didn't listen.

It's happening.
