Dear Forum Adminstrators,
It has come to my attention that the reputation system has absolutely no purpose. Although in truth it only a mere number representing what other have voted you to be -- that number is pitted against all others in hopes of being the highest thus attaining personal glory amongst the vbforums community; Sounds good don't it.
There is a small flaw in the whole basis of the system. I saw fit to endow CornedBee with some reputation points, as I did with no problem. A day later he once again impressed me and I felt as if he deserved some more points; to my dismay I learn that to give points to the same person twice I have to give 4-5 points to others.
Now what is the point in running a point system where to give points to someone twice I must give points out to 4-5 other people, that essentially ruins the point of the entire thing. It may force us to be good sports about it and keep everyone's scores roughly equal; equality in reputation for all-- sounds deliteful, somewhat like a dream; like a theory. Communism was a theory and in theory it works![]()
Thanks,
Halsafar
P.S -- Was I polite enough?
