Subject: Bungie.net should get a reputation system

I feel that people would attempt to lower the rep of members that they disagree with over certain things. I think there are other, better ways to try and convince people to be respectable around here.
Do you think that is wrong of them to do? If so, why?


at least in my past forum experiences, people always randomly spam negative to the best posters. or mods... and with the upcoming game and the traffic that will ensue.. it's safe to say there will be a lot of un-justified negative or even positive voting.

LOL.

And why do we need this system? The vast majority of users here aren't mature enough to use it properly, and there's already enough obsession with the current title system.

  • 10.08.2012 8:30 AM PDT

As if Bungie.net wasn't already vain enough.

Aww, that's cute. A system that only ever tells people when they're doing well, but never makes them feel too bad.

Real account.

Join me as we make new friends from different communities!

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

We'll have less of the "who'd you want to be with if ____ happens" threads!

Similar to that which is used on bodybuilding.com. Numbered reputation points, where every 1000 points given is equal to 1 point that will show next to your name. And when you rep or neg someone, you give/take the amount of points next to your name.

So if my rep power is 5000 and I rep someone who's rep power is 45, his rep power will go up to 50. If I neg him, his rep power goes to 40. If he reps me, then I get 45 points added to mine and am .045 closer to getting another rep power point.

It's a good system to have, honestly.


You do realize that if this were implemented, most every member on this site would reach an unbelievable negative rating, right?

People would abuse the everloving crap out of this. Plenty of well-known members would have rock-bottom reps because trolls would get on their fifty alts and neg them constantly every time they made a post.

Besides, there's actually a like/dislike post script you can install (sadly not widely-used) that lets you do this to people without it affecting your forum life in any way.

To you, and anyone else saying alts would ruin this.... you're ignorant. Please explain to me how alts would ruin this? When you make a new account, your rep power is 0. It isn't exactly easy to build up a high enough rep to make a difference very quickly, so alts would not be an issue.

Go take a look at bodybuilding.com and tell me that their system, which is the exact same one I suggested in the OP, is flawed. It's not. It's perfect and there are no issues.

It would be something cool I guess. Trust points already do that though. It is just that only certain people can see that kind of stuff.

The 'thank' system from Waypoint is the only 'rep' system the Halo community can handle.

Even then, it'll be abused here because of alts.

Do you really think that people would log in and out over and over again just to raise their...yeah they would. Anything for that e-peen I suppose.

Hi I'm RT and I like to argue!

If alts were a valid reason to not do something, we wouldn't have a report system. One can just as easily abuse (or attempt to abuse) that system as one could the proposed rep system. Yet, somehow, the report system seems to work just fine, doesn't it?

On the flip side, that's time spent not posting spam and otherwise actually harassing users.

Keep the trolls busy a while with overhead/administrative BS rather than actual production. This is good.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

I don't like accounts associated with any kind of point system. I think the Bungie Community can agree on not being able to +1 or upvote someone's post, it creates more separation between members.

  • 10.08.2012 12:38 PM PDT

Your mom.

I feel like we can easily tell which members have a higher rep than others already. I don't need a visual indicator to tell me that. In fact I find that most users that have been around for a while have learned how to avoid bans and when to not post.

Just my $0.02

People can see the vanity of others as pointless, but their own? Precious.
