Bungie.net should get a reputation system
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.
edit - Use your brains, people - if you even have one. Alts would have no effect on this system. Jesus christ....

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Xi Tau Bnet's fine as is.[/quote]In terms of a rep system, sure. Overall? Nah, we could use some touch ups. They're coming.

Sounds similar to [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=10379391&postRepeater1-p=1]this.[/url] What the boss man had to say: [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=10379391&postRepeater1-p=2#10393400]Here[/url] [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=10379391&postRepeater1-p=2#10391722]and here[/url]

Meh, I'm happy with my Mythic bar, no other system is needed.

I'll rep your back if you rep mine.

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

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.

I feel it wouldn't fit well.

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

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?

I like the current system. No drama. I can't stand drama.
-
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.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] jaythenerdkid 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.[/quote] 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.

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

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

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ShieldyPoo Similar to that which is used on bodybuilding.com[/quote]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.

Sounds like the OP. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Highlights Honestly who cares about forum rep.[/quote]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] dazarobbo [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Geegs30 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.[/quote]Do you think that is wrong of them to do? If so, why?[/quote] 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.
