To rep, or not to rep.


That IS the question

Do you use the reputation system on your site?
Do you allow neg rep?
Do you allow the member to see who reps them?

Yes i use the rep system, yes i allow neg reps, and no i dont let members see who reps them.

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


I'm the same as you Caddy
Altho, with the tabless style, the rep is sorta hard to use on our default style

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


I don't use the rep system. I use the 'thanks' mod and that 'sorta' shows me who's contributing the most.

What do you like about using the rep system?

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


Yes I use the rep system, yes you can neg rep and yes I allow members to see who rep'd them in their usercp. I think if members see that others are adding them rep because they've helped out, they might help out more because they know their past help was appreciated...something like that lol.

I also have the post thank you hack installed.

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


I don't set "thanks" to give rep, that way IMO rep would get crazy. Rep is a little harder to get as it is you have to "click, type, click" and I like seeing the messages on the reps, i have the unread post and rep comments hack installed by Paul M and it is nice to login and see you got a new rep and someone took the time to thank you more personally.

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


I have anonymous rep on and it gets used once and a while by some members. I don't have the thanks hack or anything like that.

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


I use both positive and negative reputation on my sites. I also allow them to see who repped themt. Some members like the rep system and it gives them an incentive to make quality posts.

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


Yes, yes and yes. Considering my forum is purely international friendship based I think the rep system is a good idea and it works well.

Re: To rep, or not to rep.


I haven't really pushed the rep system, though it is enabled. I don't think anyone has ever used it though.
