okay, i just got this random idea here. i think we should have a rating system based off of 5 star ratings. ill call it karma. okay so kinda like when you add rep, just make it so you decide how many stars you wana give that person (maybe make moderators, and vips votes). ratting will average themselves and as far as vip goes, lets say they have to have a 5, or 4 star rating with *insert number* of votes. and maybe make it mandatory in certain forums to rate after you post it or something so we get more voters.

just a thought.

Why did someone give him -1 rep? He's just stating his idea.

+REP, sounds like a good idea, could get people a little more active.

Food for thought though, have you seen the stars in your profile? They work the same way, but are only ever noticeable in one place, so they are pretty pointless.

Might be a good idea, I think we would have to see it in place to tell. Unfortunatly I don't think that there is anything really like that, so it may need to be custom made O_o

This actually isn't a bad idea. + rep

i noticed that maybe 5 min after i posted this. its a similar idea, but like you said it means nothing.

im just really against the rep system. i always forget about it, and i dont think its fair to just have a really good option and a really bad option. there sould be some middle ground. the stars could help express quality of posts not just the quantity of good posts.

Can we have both?

I like the idea, but i dont think there's anything available like that for IPB.

I don't think they have it either, we can get one custom made

This sounds like a nice idea +REP or +Karma

I think there should be a +Karma or -Karma button and then it gives you a rating out of 5 stars visible to everyone based on ratio of good to bad karma.

Then there would be 8 systems installed lol (thanks,rep,karma,stars)

just remove everything and put 5 stars next to everyones' posts.

the thing is people can cheat and there mates will give them high stars so it is a very easy system to cheat on !
