Go to Post I think the best driver team of the post season would be Mike Wade and Pete Baltzell- because they have been driving that NASA field all over the Northeast so all of us can play.Thanks guys!! - Wayne C. [more]

Re: Reputation Deflation

I vote to leave as is. I like the limit of 2000 to give max reps. I gives people a sense of the posters rep in CD. It is a firm and attainable goal for anyone. By cutting points, the most affected will be those that have just got there. As people give good and positive comments on CD their rep will continue to rise. At 2000 they will have shown that they have been a constant, informative and positive poster. 2000, 20,000, or 200,000 make no difference because you already have a good reputation.

I would like to see neg reps given for bad spelling now that we have spell check.

Re: Reputation Deflation

They're just dots. That's really all I have to say about that, for now. As previous people have said, there's bigger & better things to work on before I will donate any time to changing the rep dots.

Re: Reputation Deflation

Brandon, did you make it so new members cannot receive rep for a little while? I saw a post without a rep button.

They may belong to a user group (banned, for instance) that doesn't allow reputation points to be given. Got a link to the post you saw it on?

And I thought you had been hard at work on a new feature. Anyway, it was the free Nintendo spam post so they were probably banned or something before the post was deleted.

/me wonders about the mysterious CD groups and hidden forums and all the other "deepest darkest corners" of CD.

Re: Reputation Deflation

Yes, that user was banned but I missed that post. The banned group has permissions to log in, and that's about it. No PM, no profile editing, no posting, no repping, no anything.

There are lots of hidden forums .. check the latest forum we added .. look at the forumid .. count all the forums you can see, and that will give you an idea. (yes, there are some that were removed, test forums, etc, but there are a lot of hidden ones that only a few select people can see)

If you show everybody how many points each person has, it seems to me that it would turn into even more of a contest to see if you can pass the person ahead of you...which is completely not the point.

I've heard people speak of the system as is with this exact point. You can still see who is "directly" ahead of you. You don't need to see how many points they have for it to be an unwarranted "contest".

It's just reputation. Who really cares?

If you don't care about rep, use firefox + adblock plugin to block the negative and positive rep pictures.

Re: Reputation Deflation

heh i guess you havnt seen your own rep . i personally really dont like rep as ive found them to be misleading and i dont like going into my rep and seeing these nice posts people say and then this one ugly one i have. it just kind of puts me off. im probably just going to end up blocking them like suggested.
