Hey guys!

I noticed the rep was added!
I like the idea!
Thanks staff!
It is on a forums I go on and it is pretty useful.

Oh wow, I just noticed that, I wonder who re-added 'em.

Yeah, no one announced it.

Oh, that was me. I was testing some things out with it. Mainly wanted to see how the Thanks button functioned, but disabled it. I don't know about rep, I suppose it can stay on if you guys really want it. I've already worked some bugs out of it. For one, there is no negative rep. It is more like a simple Thanks system that I had originally wanted.

I think we should keep it. =)
I like it.

Yeah, me too. I'm going to change some more of the settings though, if we do.

Subject: Re: Rep added February 2nd 2010, 8:58 pm

Well, ok thanks admins!

I'm not the biggest fan of reputation, but I guess I wouldn't mind if it stayed.

First off, I thought that you meant like Exercise Reps.
Second, I'm just asking, do we still get the "Added coin effect" from getting positives?

It looks like you get one coin for every positive rep.

Now just one question, is every user able to give rep?

Yes, I am pretty sure.

Subject: Re: Rep added February 2nd 2010, 10:54 pm

Oh, ok then, though I may have a few problems with that because I think moderators, admins, golden penguins, and maybe clan leaders should be able to give rep. And a permission the PWU could have would be giving rep.

Subject: Re: Rep added February 2nd 2010, 10:58 pm

I think that's a very good idea, Kaka.

Subject: Re: Rep added February 2nd 2010, 11:01 pm

Sure, no problem. Lol, I just thought of the idea of when you click and adoptable, you make one where you click for their rep!

It's just another outbreak like Posts and Coins. Some users will want it, others will give it. Either way, there is no prize for having more rep. It just shows that you've had some better posts or earned it some way.

Users must have over 25 (?) posts before they can give rep.

Currently, FM does not allow me to limit Rep to groups. If I could, that would be awesome and give us so many possibilities.

Subject: Re: Rep added February 2nd 2010, 11:50 pm

I think it should be about hm....500 or so posts, maybe 1000 before you can give out rep? And thanks anyways Tricky!

i agree with kaka cause well what if a person gets two accoutns and posted ramdomly on some topics for 25 times on posting games and roleplays and stuff easy to post on and so on and gives LOTS of rep to the main account? but i like there is no negative rep! Rep added 562947

The staff will probably know if someone does that. If not, then that person would have to be pretty addicted to CPP to do it in the first place.

Users usually argue over the reputation thing, I didn't know you was going to add it since we never dicussed it in the Staff Forum.

But thanks, I guess?

Reputation is the equivalent of post count; 'tis only a number. I don't see why anyone would argue over it.

Subject: Re: Rep added February 3rd 2010, 1:59 pm

On other forums I go on, DB. They usually argue because of how much reputation they have. I doubt it would happen here, but I was just saying. ;D

Edit: Why did you click on the reputation and make it go down for me?

Well, it wasn't me.

I have a question, if I may ask: Are you going to use this old idea Egaro had for the reputation system (scrap infractions all together and use rep-points to decide whether or not a user gets banned) or are they really just.. there?

I wasn't planning on adding it at first.

No, rep has nothing to do with your status as being a "good" or "bad" member. :p It's just for fun. Also, there is no negative rep like I said. Your rep goes up if someone hits positive on your posts, but does nothing if they hit negative.
