[DragonBlade]

Let me BUMP this so that I'm being serious on this issue.

[Icchy <3]

Wow, alot of people who rep abused.
I dunno if this matter or anything (Probebly does), but when the rep first came out, we had a rep orgy and I was involved.

[DragonBlade]

I'm not done, this is the rep that occurred this month.

[Alerane]

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was abusing it. Was I giving it for stupid reasons or somethng? If I know what I did I'll stop.

[DragonBlade]

Yeah, dont rep everyone that comment on your pieces

[Alerane]

Oh, that, should I find another way like comments on a profile? I just felt happy people were actually reading my thread, since at first no one... T.T I won't anymore.

Edit:Btw, is there a rep rules thread somewhere? I loook for it before and didn't find it

[DragonBlade]

You can use the advance profile or just post within your thread

Does it mean that we will get our rep back in two weeks? =/

[Undying]

'Scuse me, but how on earth did I manage to abuse rep?

[Sora]

I'm wondering that too =S

[DragonBlade]

'Scuse me, but how on earth did I manage to abuse rep?

Giving people incentive to join the "Bleach Hangout"

[Undying]

a. that was exactly one person (nice of you to remember it almost 2-3 weeks after it was done) and b. nobody actually joined for the rep.

So, like, that's abusing? O.o

[Sora]

I think that you should take in consideration just the most recent ones. It has no point in bringing to the light such old "abuses". Anyway, it is up to you =/

[warp:routine]

i certainly dont doubt db about my rep abuse... but i am still confused... i was told that i repped someone cause they had asked for it... i dont remember this (again, i dont doubt db...) i just wanted to know on what post i had left that rep so i could remember exactly why i had done it...

edit: i dont care about having my rep restored... i just wanna know where i faltered

[DragonBlade]

I doubt I can restore the deleted reps.

Undying:
You gave more than 10+ ppl rep and your reasons were "Here is the promised rep for joining"

[Sora]

=S Perhaps you've been too strict. Just pming the "rep abuser" and telling him/her to stop should have been enough...

Well, if it can't be undone, then there is no reason to complain anymore.

But I can't understand that:


1st Offense - A Warning @ 50% That lasts 2 weeks.

[DragonBlade]

Your warning % will expire after 2 weeks. I posted this thread last year, that should be sufficient enough in warning instead of pming each one.

[Sora]

~.~ Okay

[Undying]

10+? You kidding me, right? I could swear I only did it to one person.

Ah well, who gives a crap about :p. My e-penis is still larger than yours.

[DragonBlade]

No, I am not kidding >:

[Undying]

O.o I was sure you were.

[M_A]

i am not on the list but some of the people who repped me are, so i lose the rep they gave me...
oh well. So pretty much if you rep someone without explaining your reason, it is considered rep abuse. I'll keep that in mind. :)

[Sora]

Yeah, it seems so. I do think that people will be more careful from now on ·_·

[Dounick]

I'm not done, this is the rep that occurred this month.
dude, i havent even repped anyone this month let alone even come online often
Edit: not to mention what shadow said about the "old abuse"
souldnt be brought up now,
its old news, and should have been dealt then not now
because thats a little lame dealing with it now, even if you were busy, that was like 2-3 months ago when that all happened (possibly even longer)

[SLVR]

Dang and none of these people gave me rep? Hey DB why cant you just undue their points?instead of warnin them and stuff?

[♥ Tess]

^probably to make sure ppl don't do it again.

it's pretty tedious to keep undo-ing reps over & over (especially if its the same members)
so i guess warnings are effective in this case -.-

[Cleric]

Will I still be able to receive rep while on warning?

[DragonBlade]

Dounick: Do you want to read over 10000+ reps? I doubt it :P It takes time. Aint my fault you abused rep in the past.

Yes you can rep if you are warned, a warning is just a warning.

xD those 10000 rep werent in this month you said they were
:Domo

[Kray]

So,
can someone tell me when the appropriate time would be for giving a rep?

[M_A]

So,
can someone tell me when the appropriate time would be for giving a rep?
When someone does you a favor, or says something that you think is really, really good or cool. When someone gives you a gifts, as well. The most important part is stating a good reason for giving rep in the "reason for rep" thingie.

Ok, I get it. Thanks! :toocool:

[gentlemancole]

Informative!

/me totally watches his arse

[darkthief]

Are we allowed to rep people who created a thread and showing off their creative talents?

[maximoose666]

You probably can if the person has posted an exceptional piece of work. A long and well-written fanfic; a great piece of original art, or perhaps if a newbie has just managed to push their skill to a new level: these are cases where you may be able to rep someone for thier creative achievements.

[DragonBlade]

Are we allowed to rep people who created a thread and showing off their creative talents?

Yup

[Cleric]

so . . . ah . . . it's been 2 weeks . . . why does my warn bar still say 50%?

[hobbes24]

what am i doing wrong?
and does it mean anything worse if im listed twice?
ive only repped a few people and they deserved it i thought
and i can't even figure out if anyone has given me reputation
edit: i thought i was warned because i posted something that was spam
edit: to dragonblade below: is that a reply to me?

[DragonBlade]

1-27-2007

[Sora]

Yup, that day it is exactly two weeks

[Sandal Hat]

silverwolf added, you know what you did.

[silverwolf801]

omg he de repped me for something that had nothing to do with him

[Sandal Hat]

like omg he de repped you for flaming omg

[Alerane]

Uh, question, can be deleted afterwards, but I served my warning time over 2 months ago, have caused no rep problems since (I actually have only given rep about 7 times since :S ) so why am I still a recent offender?

[Sandal Hat]

I fixed it!

[doobiesnacks]

I searched FAQ and could not find this question. If it does exist and I was retated and could not find it, I apologize!!

Do you recieve notification if someone gives you negative rep or it is taken away as in these cases here?

mateff

[Dexter]

You should be able to see in your "User CP" whether you received positive or negative rep.

The neg rep is not a green bar, (or a grey bar?) followed by a generally nasty comment i'm assuming :)

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

mmm.. i always thought it was a red bar, but maybe it might be gray.

red bar is only used when yur rep points goes negative maybe??

[Dexter]

yeah, i said it's NOT. grey bar is when nothing happens (like a person with 0 rep, reps you)

[Pie <3]

If you have a grey bar , then your rep is disabled.

[Lust]

red bar indicate ppl give you bad repping(give negative point but its for temporary)

[M-50]

so what if someone gives u -ve rep after your green bars under rep power, will you have one red bar?

[♥ Tess]

only if you have 0 rep

Example:
If you have 500 reputation points,
and someone with a rep power of 12 gives you negative rep,
you will have 494 points left. (it uses half of their rep power)

To have a red bar, you need under 0 points. (i.e: -12)

[M-50]

aw wicked that explains it thanks shin.

[M I Z U]

only if you have 0 rep

Example:
If you have 500 reputation points,
and someone with a rep power of 12 gives you negative rep,
you will have 488 points left. (that doesn't put you in the red)

To have a red bar, you need under 0 points. (i.e: -12)

http://img267.echo.cx/img267/6374/repimage2tt.jpg



I think the Neg reps should stay permanent.

Then reduce the rep power by half when someone Neg reps.

Example:

Johnny has 40 rep power.

Steve has 100 rep points.

Johnny neg reps Steve.

Steve now has 80 rep points, not 60 because when a neg rep is in action, only half of the rep power will account.

[♥ Tess]

Actually, it may be like that.
(using half of your rep power)

if it is... apologize for the error

_
Anyway, i believe most members don't have the option to give negative rep anymore

[Sora]

We can't?!? =/ I think that it's still possible.
When you +rep someone, you can choose between (I approve/I disapprove). If you select (I disapprove) then, you give bad rep :)

[Fearful Shino]

nope it's gone.

:< seriously, it's gone. Yeah, i still remember that, but i suppose the mods were feeling nice and didn't want people to receive neg rep due to different views, brought on by different cultures and world views.

[Dexter]

Erm.. no. Sorry Kia, I still got the option to neg rep whoever I want..


Perhaps it's that mythical 'Espada advantage' ..? Tho Koushun said he has it so prob not.

[M-50]

would the neg rep be the 'report bad post'option by any chance or am i just retarded?

[Dexter]

No, that's different.

When you go to rep someone, if you choose "I disapprove" - that's neg rep

[M-50]

oh, yeah i can do that as well.

[♥ Tess]

Admins, Mods, Captains & certain groups (like the Shinigami Staff, GFX Crew) can still give negative rep.

For the rest, it has been disabled.

This is what I meant when I said most members can't use it >.>

EDIT:
DB hasn't finished configuring the rep settings for all the usergroups.
so some members can give negative rep, some members can't

[Fearful Shino]

yeah. that's the screen i have, i guess the elite still have it.

Ahhh, okay. I get it. I didn't know that regular members don't have the second option :)

Thanks for clearing that up Shin :redbiggri

[doobiesnacks]

hm.. well, I am far from a so called "elite member", but I can disaprove of a message. Perhaps it's that purple skin 8P

[DragonBlade]

I r lazy to disable that thru most usergroups :P

[M I Z U]

Hmm..
I have it as well. and to mateff's theory, I switched to the purple skin and it's still up there.

You don't need to do it. I don't think that people use much the disapprove option =/

[Yamamoto]

Yeah I have the neg rep option too (I disapprove)...

although yeah i really don't use it :p

[Evanesque]

Hmmm...I've got the option to disapprove posts too....
>_>

I rarely rep/de-rep anyway...

[WhyteDragon]

I hope that I haven't abused the Rep. If I have I am sorry. *tail between legs* I am still new. I'm getting used to your additions compared to the other forums that I have been on.

[♥ Tess]

^you would have received a warning if you have.
