Request for removal of rep limit
 
I constantly seem to be in situations where I wanna give rep but can't because "I've already given them too much rep" when I've only given them one!! Also I've recently been in a few situations where I'm told that what I've posted is rep-Worthy but I can't receive the rep because "I've already received too much from that member"!
I think that the rep-cap is stupid and would like to see it removed and I'm sure there are others who will agree.

I'd give you rep for that post but i'm not allowed to because of the rep-cap :'(

DarkHoodness 06-21-2008 05:11 AM

Yeah, I know what you mean. Okay, it prevents rep being given to the same member over and over, but it should be a maximum of 5 or so before you're stopped, rather than 2 or 3.

E'l Scrabino 06-21-2008 05:37 AM

I was about to give you rep but i have to spread it around... Still...

WHO CAN I REP D:

Wings of Fire 06-21-2008 05:40 AM

Me :P.

I don't think the rep cap should be completely removed but I think it should definitely be truncated from 20 people to a figure more plausible given the current state of the forums, say fifteen or ten.

Also Carnix I don't believe I've ever encountered your second problem, even though there are two members responsible for giving me a huge amount of rep I can still rep them back. A little odd.

Carnix 06-21-2008 07:15 AM

Glad that so many people agree with me. Now I wanna know what the Mods and Alcar think.

Also, WTF happend to the poll options? I didn't know someone could edit them!

Anonyman! 06-21-2008 11:34 AM

I liek not the cap. Let it be slayed by the mighty sword *coughpeniscough* of Alcar!

Havoc 06-21-2008 01:34 PM

Hm I voted to remove the cap but didn't think about how it could be exploited. I think a limit of 5 would be in order per member or so.

Alcar 06-22-2008 05:24 AM

Limit changed to ten.

EDIT: Hmmm... it turns out it's been set to ten for ages...

Alcar...

abe is now! 06-22-2008 06:02 AM

I love reputation system...

Does rep expire? I have less rep than I did a few days ago but I didn't receive any negrep. In fact, I got more posrep. Just thought it was weird.

Wil 12-23-2008 07:15 AM

*ahem*

I deleted a shitload of posrep I gave out whilst drunk.

But I applaud your vigilance.

I see....... Thanks.

OMG rep Nazi's...

Wil 12-23-2008 07:20 AM

Maybe I need to make explicit that I gave out the posrep whilst under the influence, and I have since soberly covered my tracks. I didn’t just get drunk and lose all my inhibitions about cheating in the Rep Race.

I got it.

Wil 12-23-2008 07:38 AM

Smarter people might not have.

And wow, the first rep moderation in months and it’s accused of being Nazism. That’s nice coming from a mod.

I'm not sure if that's a compliment or what it is. I think I'll choose to take it as one against my better judgement.

Munch's Master 12-23-2008 08:03 AM

Thing is though Max, you've deleted ALL the posrep you ever gave me, some of it dating back to like, August or September. A posrep you gave me not long ago I understand deleting, since the post it was for wasnt exactly great and you left a message saying I LOVE YOU, but the other, older deletion I don't understand. Not accusing or anything, just curious.

Wil 12-23-2008 08:17 AM

I haven’t deleted any older rep than the spate of I LOVE YOU messages.

Anonyman! 12-23-2008 08:22 AM

Yeah. I figured there was something weird about that.

Laser 12-23-2008 08:37 AM



Time for some hardcore rap!

On topic, I would like the rep thing to be removed or at least increased

And a very Merry Christmas to you too.

I am now back down to being an amazingly versitile little blue guy :(

This is your equivilant of the morning after pill?

Well for some reason a rep from as I say, around August or September based on a Harry Hill comment in W+B isn't there anymore. Not that it really matters though, it's only rep.

Do you, in fact not really love us?


Disappointed.

Fuzzle Guy 12-23-2008 09:34 AM

He loves me :)

You mistake love for lust, sir.

But if he calls afterwards, does it still count as lust?

He never calls.

He never calls.

Not even text messages? In that case I have to concede that he is indeed playing the lusting heartbreaker.
