Stormin Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 strange system - we had ruggbutt making some comment how this new F4AF would have the Falcon simhaterbois starting up, I wasn't sure what that meant so asked and I get reputation points removed? looks more to be a 'LOMAC fan clique' rating than anything useful. Yeah, it's a big conspiracy. The "Besmirchment Effect" is now in place.
Allochtoon Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Last night i couldn't sleep because my Reputation Influence was low.
Guest ruggbutt Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I have been hard at work w/the RI points and the besmirchment factor. Expect to see negative numbers soon.
Bug11 Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Yeah, it's a big conspiracy. The "Besmirchment Effect" is now in place. Ok Conspiracy Carl ;) I can't figure out any reason why a moderator would deduct points from someone because he asked why someone else started bitching about a group of people from another sim? *shrug* Just seems stupid to me.
SwingKid Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Are you sure it was a moderator? I thought almost everybody could influence rep points. -SK
BuzzU Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I see nobody took my dare. Ok, a nickle for anybody who clicks on mine. Buzz
S77th-GOYA Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 Are you sure it was a moderator? I thought almost everybody could influence rep points. -SK Mine only shows the option to approve to a post. No option to dissapprove. I clicked on your scales, Buzz. Where's my nickel?
Bug11 Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Are you sure it was a moderator? I thought almost everybody could influence rep points. -SK I can see that I can ADD to someone's influence, but no ability to deduct. Maybe there's a secret group of hooded LOMAC Ninjaboys who have the power to deduct ;)
S77th-GOYA Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 Obviously, it's a conspiracy. Some black cabal has all the real power here. They're also preventing responses from ED. We should storm the Bastille.
BuzzU Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Mine only shows the option to approve to a post. No option to dissapprove. I clicked on your scales, Buzz. Where's my nickel? If you really clicked, then it's something else than clicking on it. My points stayed the same. Are we sure this isn't post count related? Buzz
S77th-GOYA Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 If you really clicked, then it's something else than clicking on it. My points stayed the same. Are we sure this isn't post count related? It appears to be post count related and can be added to by positive responses. I really did click your scales, but I didn't add to your rep. You didn't say to add to your rep, you just said click. Where's my nickel?
S77th-GOYA Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 Keep it. You'll need it for rent. And ice cream.
BuzzU Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 How come the icon in lower left says it adds to your rep, but it doesn't? I'm confused. I need some ice cream. 1 Buzz
S77th-GOYA Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 Stop trolling, Buzz. Or haven't you clicked on anyone elses scales but your own?

Stormin Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 Can any of the Moderators or Adminstrators explain this Reputation feature in detail? There is a conspiracy theory brewing on another forum that the Moderators are adjusting the Rep points so that only "Pro-Lomac" people are getting points and that some people have actually had their points reduced by the Moderators. I don't happen to believe in this foolish theory, but I thought I'd ask as there is a beer being wagered. Frankly, as I stated above, this Rep point feature is totally useless and serves no productive purpose on the forum. What was the rationale for enabling this silly feature? 1
Stormin Posted May 4, 2005 Posted May 4, 2005 I've noticed that some of the Mods and Administrators have the Rep feature turned off. How does a user disable this feature? I'd like mine to be disabled, please. 1
