reputation

[Silverthorn]

BP gave simon -20 for a few days to stop him getting 69 ;P

It was more because I was getting annoyed by this "OMG GIEV POINTS"-crap. It's leading to strikingly useless rep-comments etc. Also, I deleted that rep a couple hours later, so bla.

I remebered, I visited a MyBB Forum which a moderator has 169 points!

Some forums have enabled a rep per post system. I guess, if I enabled that, anarchy would break loose altogether. And with that, I mean more anarchy than there is in terms of reputation already.

I didn't know that admins can rate that much.

By default, it's 3, but I tend to stick to single points except for those that deserve it.


I really do not wish to moderate rep-ratings -- that would be a waste of time and I have expected that much maturity of members. In fact, except for a hand full, the majority has been around when the rep-system got disabled.
The ones that abuse this know who they are. And I strongly recommend those to reduce their habits and/or replace their rather useless reputation-posts with proper versions. Most of you are closer to 20 than 10, so please behave that way. Acting childish from time to time is okay, but constantly acting retarded is a different story.

I will wait with how things will go in the next couple days/weeks. When nothing changes to the present state, you can say bye to the reputations.
