    Rep Stimulus Packages

    Ever Since The Placement Of IPB3 I Have Noticed almost No Use of the Rep System!

    No One is using it and that effects everyone so i was thinking we should have Stimulus packages Like:

    An OK idea, atleast it's encouraging people to be helpful and active. Helpful and active people = VIP.

    Those are all idea that are too dependent on the content you publish, its too uneven. I think the way it is now is fine.

    How about a system where you "buy" rep, like on your Control Panel you can send a PayPal payment of some amount of money and get 25, 50, etc. rep?

    Not "buying" rep. Then little rich kids could buy all the rep. If it goes back to 1000 rep, then this system would work.

    I have no clue where this member is from, but in Australia the Government gave all tax payers $900 to "stimulate" the economy, that was called a Stimulus Package.

    So I guess he wants to try stimulate the use of Rep system by giving free shit away.

    Valid Point but in the final version you may get like 3 in a month

    **** paying for rep, that would be the most pointless thing of life, so many new VIPs. Just make good posts and hope people know how to use the rep system.
