Is this the new "Thanks" system?

**DmanDmythDledge** · 11/02/2010, 10:09 PM

Hopefully not, reputation is unsuitable on a site like this I think.

**Magicme** · 11/02/2010, 10:14 PM

Would hate to see mine! :0

your reputation precedes you lady

**dahamsta** · 11/02/2010, 11:38 PM

We'll see how it goes.

I just approved dman's post (got to keep it in the club

)

What happens now? Don't see a reputation counter anywhere.

**oscar** · 12/02/2010, 9:50 AM

you can view how many points you have by clicking on the star in the bottom left corner,don't know if you can see others

**pineapple stu** · 12/02/2010, 10:02 AM

So you can. Seems kind of pointless without a comparison though.

I've seen this elsewhere: you could sort the members list by reputation. Doesn't seem to be available here though. There was also a visible representation of your rep (a bar of green segments - or red for the people being picked on) on the left of your posts.

I don't want to make a big thing of reputation, it can be very troublesome; in fact I may yet remove the ability to give negative reputation/

John83, the green dot to the right of your User Title is the start of the bar.

I think it has a couple of drawbacks compared with the thanks system alright. In my experience, it doesn't become a problem unless mods get behind the bullying of someone widely loathed.

**dahamsta** · 12/02/2010, 10:57 AM

Ah sure I just feck them out on their ear anyway.

**SkStu** · 12/02/2010, 2:52 PM

so is it safe to say that the thanks function is not coming back?

couldnt be arsed with this reputation malarkey. Id prefer to thank an individual post (insightful, humurous, whatever) than be adding to someones imaginary "cyber-reputation".

Plus i haf nearly 500 thanks that i wouldnt mind getting back...

You are thanking an individual post.

It doesn't seem to be visible though. I've 'thanked' a few posts but it doesn't show up on the post itself. Can the person whose post I've thanked see it anywhere?
