Do you think a reputation system would be a good idea for this forum?

This is just a suggestion, I'm not complaining, so please don't lock.

I think this forum would benefit from a reputation system, since it would be easier to gauge which users offer the most benefit to the ATOT community as a whole.

What do you think?

You realise your rating would break the metric right? No, not the positive side.

No. I mean a more efficient way to visualize and rate good and bad posters, just like other forums.

no.

the forums used to have them... they were pretty much only used when another poster pissed you off.

I'm not grinding for rep with any factions on AT.

You would have a negative rating, so why would you want a system?

Could we ban people with a negative rating so we could get rid of 'im?

the only time that matters is when doing business in the for sale/trade forum and well, that is what heatware is for.

I don't think it was the same system I'm proposing.

Yeah, and they were pretty much useless.

BTW, "Topic Summary: I think it would solve a lot of problems."
Exactly what problems would this solve?

Absolutely not. Especially in your case. You are a troll and I am certain this is a ploy for attention as you would be among the lowest of the low in Rep points.

Also, people whoring for Rep points gets old in about 2.6 seconds.

It would be a disaster on many fronts.

Don't call me a troll if you don't show evidence to back up your claim. I don't insult anyone. I don't post useless threads. I don't break any forum rules.
