Reset to Zero. Make them little Yin Yangs that grow into bigger YinYangs that become rotating death cubes.

Or do swords.

Or do diamonds.

But no clovers.

On a serious note, is the software capable of subtracting the negative one gives to another? Or some fraction of the cost like half?

Just a random though.

On a serious note,

I know that the more reps you have, the more power you have to rep, and thus the need for the reset.

But, you also get more power to rep based on your post count, right? How will that be reset?

No, post count will sty the same.

===

The following settings are planned for the reset.
In addition the following limitations will be put into effect:

* Rep power will be capped at a maximum of 50 points. Once you hit that level, while your own score will continue to increase, your ability to influence others will top out.

* Posts older than 90 days will not be repible.

* Posts in locked threads will not be repible.

* Some forums will not be repible. These include the staff areas, and some of the non-art forums like the B&G.

* Art-Specific forums will allow for a higher rep-factor than non-art forums. Karate might be worth 100% while the Study might be worth 75% and the LockerRoom only 25%. These values haven't been decided yet.

* Rep values will be the same regardless of positive or negative. Previously NegRep was 1/2 PosRep

Thank you for the details.

Based upon the above I would start out with 18 points of Reputation power. This is based upon the 12,xxx posts for 12 points and the 6+ years I have been a member. I think this is fair.

So you can rep someone 4x/day?

The system doesn't restrict admins, however any admin found abusing this will be fired. All Staff have to play by the same rules as everyone else.

And more!

We could manually edit you too any amount we like if we really wanted too, as well as pretty much anything else the site has about you, that's what admin means :D


Of course as Uncle Ben says, "With great power comes great...." hmm... can't remember what it was, guess I'd best go mess with peoples titles and avatars... :lol:

Yes, I remember! What I meant was that it looks like every user will be able to rep me 4x/day under the new system--40 clicks per day, 10 user minimum wait means User X can rep User Y four times per day (provided that User Y makes sufficiently many posts). That's what I wanted to verify--is that so?

pretty much. As before though, if you suspect abuse, let us know and we'll look into it. This revamp will eliminate many of the tricks a few of the worse offenders used to mask their actions though, making it more challenging to them.
