Reputation System - Disabled

[GrandOldTeam]

Hi All,

With regret, I've disabled the reputation system.

Unfortunately, despite best efforts to minimise potential abuse (Negative Rep prompting a moderator alert) - we have had a handful of absolute idiots abusing the system. Those idiots will shortly find themselves permanently banned for being malicious, misrepresenting our community and wasting our time.

The reputation system will be revamped and back shortly.

You were pretty much mate.

I'd neg rep you for that if I could.

It think it's sad as it's served the forum well but it's up to you. So all the lids who spend a lot of time being sound start from scratch now? I should have just been an absolute [Poor language removed] to everyone.

I'd direct your ire at those who misused it so badly to be honest.

Also, it's just a function on a forum - people should be sound for the sake of being sound rather than rep collecting like it's Pokemon or something.

Plus it'll be back soon enough Dan says.

Sound. It's one way that this place self mods itself.

As part of this new overhaul did someone make Tubey mod?

This is the shizzle! No neg repping means folk are getting really catty! Well in!

I'll take that as a nomination.

Can you just ban Chico?

Just offering an opinion, same as you.

Mods? NO WAY.

Dan is there any possibility of you creating a new role as forum ambassador that might suit someone of my profile?

Never saw the need to provide a facility that was always open to abuse not all posters want to indulge in the chit chat beyond subjects Everton and that doesn't mean they should be attacked - unfortunately this happens.

I've commented on this before and for every anonymous snide remark I get as a result I get a signed "well said" comment from those equally as mystified by the whole business.

My proposal would be a no comment green points allocation only to show your love there is not a single reason to surreptitiously be negative to a fellow evertonian, not a one.

If people don't agree with opinion that's what the main board is for - debate within the rules (actually it's the same even if you agree).

For those whom popularity is important they can have a massive green line under their name and for those who aren't arsed in the slightest stalking will cease.

This site will be 1000% better if people can't get round the rules of decency and respect.

Suspecting this won't happen and in the event of some kind of "negative" system being re-introduced - anonymity absolutely encourages the snide and bad feeling and shouldn't be allowed.

An instantaneous report button as per the main board would be a necessity - I could never report my stalkers beyond sending PMs and emails and after a while you can't be arsed.

Great day for the site entirety not just the few.

Until fairly recently I actually thought mod meant modified account.

I also thought (est. 1676) on building signs meant estimated.

I reckon I'm a bit thick actually.

I quite like the removal of the reputation system though, it feels fresh.
