The User Reputation system

[Alan]

Excitingly enough I now have two green blobs.....

Boringly I'm still only "appearing to talk sense."

Whats next? What do I strive for, or shall I just talk bollx and go backwards?

[Rogue Wave]

Well I goota say I quite like a system that says I appear to talk sense and gives a red mark to Pete7.

It's still in beta testing. I obviously haven't got it working quite right yet

and gives a red mark to Pete7.

Eh?

John

[Pete7]

Yep, I am now the bad boy of ribnet as someone has voted against me. Perhaps I can become the rebel of ribnet.

Pete

[John Kennett]

Well you're in the top five for reputation at the moment, and the person who gave you negative repuation marks is in the bottom five. Go figure!

Just to keep you happy Pete I've just voted against you so you can get back into the red.

Ah, I've just found that if you go to the members list you can sort by order of credibility.

Keith (just thought you'd like to know) Hart

PS. Does the above count as a sensible remark?

What comes below "xxx may not know as much as he reckons!" ?
And is it gender sensitive?

I think you'll find it's "xxx has been banned" or should that read "xxx has had his posting rights revoked"

With a bit of luck we'll never find out

And is it gender sensitive?

I don't suppose it will need to be as I can't imagine any of the RIBnet ladies getting that sort of reputation!

No one will get banned (or suspended) just for having a low credibility score, although it is quite likely that by the time someone has earnt a suspension they will have acquired a low score!

Thanks Mr K. You're a very nice man!!

[jwalker]

Crawlers, the both of you.

I have a problem with this system! I am now worried to post in case I get another negative point. What's more is I'm 4th from the bottom! How can this be - there are people with 0 posts who have a higher rating than me, and I had always considered my posts to be rather useful....

[Richard B]

What about a "Weasel score" showing how much negative cred everyone's been giving out?

And how about being able to give out more than 3 greens per 24hrs? When peeps post loads of good interesting stuff I'm having to be mean and hold back... then forget what was the good stuff!!

[Tim M]

Or just getting rid of it all together!

I think there's a chap called Manos who might agree with you
