Re: reputation

how about changing how much "love" we have to share before we can rep the same person again?

Change to what? 5, 10, 15? I don't want to presume anything. The only thing I want to caution against is something as low as 0 or 1 as it will likely make a farce of reps in general. A user would be able to rep another user over and over until they reached their daily limit and would indeed more likely to be used as a pm replacement.

Re: reputation

Yea. Let's vote on how often we can share our love! Lord knows we all could use more positives in our lives.

Admins...I'm sure you'll come up with the right formula to keep most everyone happy. My BF and I appreciate everything you do for the board.

Re: reputation

well since Admins can see who got what message from whom for what post and have the ability to edit it I really don't think that would go on too long. Can you disab;e an individual's ability to rep like you could on the old software remove their PM privilidges?

Re: reputation

OMG, why would you want to "disable" a person's ability to give rep? That is the silliest thing I've ever heard!

(unless they were being nasty in their comments of course)

Re: reputation

To be honest, I don't check reps unless someone notified me of an inappropriate one. I certainly don't want to start being the rep censor or rep hall monitor. My workload with Bren is tough enough already. As for designing a usergroup for bad rep'ers or rep purgatory, it would be possible, but I would SO SO SO much rather prevent the bad scenario having to happen in the first place and treat all people the same.

same reason they remove PM privildges when a person abuses the system.

Kent y'all would see it in the green box explosion on somebody's header when they posted and could check it out was what i was referreing to when i said y'all could monitor them so so nobody could abuse them by just using it to reach their daily limit with their buddy.

They remove pm privildges when someone sends offensive or abusive pm's, not when someone sends too many pm's in one day, or to the same person 2big, that is not the same thing--not even close.

Why do you feel such a need to control everyone's use of reps? I just don't get what the big issue is. As long as everyone is being nice they should be allowed to use them however they please, you are free to do the same or free to just ignore them.

Where is that dead horse? I want to take a few swings at it myself!

Re: reputation

Kent posted abuot how somebody could abuse the system and use it as a private message system MOG I responded they could stop it.

MOG I could ask you the same since you don't feel there is any need to discuss this why do you post in here?

obviously you do feel there is a need or you wouldn't bother to open, read, and reply

Re: reputation

I thought Kent wanted suggestions on how to manage reps sent in PM to Admin? Since it's still out in the open, can I rejoin the love fest?

[2big4mysize]

Re: reputation

Perry read Kent all the way to the bottom

Clarification: send your suggestions to me in a pm or as a reply.

Re: reputation

Smokin'! I can't send PM's anyway.

Love fest hmmmmm ..and I have missed out


I have obviously been looking for love in all the wrong places because I only have a few points and they are mostly from someone who hates them

Re: reputation

Perry-- that's because you've shut off your PMing option. I know. I tried to PM you, and it says you are not accepting PM's. You snob.
