That would be my fault.

I propose that members can select how much rep to give or take from a post. I fear giving many good posts the rep they deserve because my gargantuan rep power would far overshoot the mark. In my new model, rep power is the maximum (and probably default) amount of rep a member can give,and the actual rep given can be custom set by the giver as any integer between that and zero.
Is there any way of doing this, Pete? |
The reputation system is completely inbuilt. The closest thing to what you're suggesting is thread rating - which of course only pertains to a thread, as opposed to a post.
We could adjust the calculations for amounting rep power, however. Alcar... |
Nah. Maybe I’ll take my proposal to the vB folk. They don’t give up quite so easily. Actually, dampening rep power to reduce the frequency and magnitude of outliers would go some way to lessening my concern. I just think it’ll be like your proposal to change star calculation, with far too much thought needed to go into it to justify getting into it.

How do you give and take rep power? :confused:
|
You don’t, you give and take rep. Rep power is how much rep you can give and take. To rep a post, look for the small symbol that looks like a pair of scales:
 . Now, select whether you want to give rep (‘I approve’) or take rep (‘I disapprove’), and leave a comment if you wish. |
Why when I give a -rep it tells me: "May you be lucky..."? I gave a -rep and I am unlucky if I receive a -rep!!!

This message is stupid and should be changed. I’ll start thinking of fantastical and whimsical alternatives.
