The New LPF Rating system

[UnhingedMouse0]

I know why lot's of green members don't like this system.

 

You mean people with a green dot?

Cuz Im an elite member, and Vero is a mod and we both still have a blue dot... therefore, ther system is screwed up and at the moment whether you have a green or blue dot... it means absolutely NOTHING.

[Yackiestinger]

true..but Why most of you want it out if it doesn't affect your feelings?

[Hybrid Soldier]

I think that a green dot is bad and a blue dot is good, but I'm not sure. It would explain alot though.

[o0SugaxNxSpice0o]

Lol thanks! I'm "bad" haha!

 

Very confusing, I wish LPFAdmin really would clear this blue / green bar thingy so that it'll set peoples minds at rest lol. I'm not bothered by it at the moment, it makes no sense.

[ForgottenKid]

*confuzzeled* Im very confused.

[Vash_the_Stampede]

I am not gonna say I like it, or dislike it right now, I do think it has the potential to be an good idea, but, I think it's too complicated for us to learn or understand XD. I think everyone's just used to the old way, & maybe even scared, I really don't think that 'scared' would be that right word, but I think it does say what everyone is saying. So, Jon, Keep it, or trash it, it is ultimatly your descion. Although, if you do decide to keep it, I suggest explaining it better, & in words that us losers can understand.

^i agree with vash

[linkinpark-1]

I accidentally voted yes instead of no. I don't like it too confusing.

[LPpinkfreak821]

i voted no cuz its kind of confusing yet i can understand it.. i mean from what i understand of it.. i think it will just support favoritism and start fights... so i dont' think its such a good idea.. you know

Nope... Id have to disagree...MSG posted this in Site Talk when question about this new system came up in there... It seems to be pretty accurate...

I just figured Id put it in here to hopefully clear some things up :thumbsup:

 

WHAT IS REPUTATION?

A ranking system to rate the posts of other members.

 

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Nothing. Just something flashy to look at and gloat over.

 

WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS TO GIVE REPUTATION??

Both of the following:

A minimum post count of 50.

A minimum reputation of 10 points.

 

WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS TO RECEIVE REPUTATION??

A minimum of 1 post.

 

 

HOW DO I GIVE REPUTATION?

Next to each member's post, you can find a little scale icon. Click on that and a new window will open up. Here you can decide to approve their post (positive/green), or disapprove their post (negative/red), as well as leave a comment and your username for them to read. Then click Add to Reputation to complete the process.

 

HOW DO I SEE WHAT MY REPUTATION IS?

There are three ways:

The amount light bars next to your posts (see below for details).

The message you see displayed when you place your mouse over the light bars (see below for details).

Clicking UserCP, scrolling down to the Latest Reputation Received box, and looking at the top right corner. A number is given signifying how many points you've earned.

 

WHAT ARE THESE DIFFERENT BARS MEAN??

Each bar signifies that that member has reached a certain "checkpoint" in rep points. NOTE: Rep bars don't signify rep power (see below for details.)

 

 

WHAT DO THESE DIFFERENT MESSAGES OVER THE REP BARS MEAN??

They are also a "checkpoint" in rep points. NOTE: Rep levels don't signify rep power (see below for details).

 

LEVELS:??

HOW DO I SEE HOW MY REPS WERE GIVEN??

 

By clicking UserCP, and scrolling down to the Latest Reputation Received box. There you can see which thread as well as a link to the post you got you're reputation from, the time you received it, the type of reputation or color (see below for details), and a comment if one was left there. You can only view the last 10 reps you were given.

 

HOW DO I KNOW WHO GAVE ME REP?HOW DO I SEE HOW MY REPS WERE GIVEN??

 

Unless you're an admin, or super-moderator, or one of the above checks your profile for you, there is no way you can be 100% sure who gave them to you. The only other way to know is if they tell you that they are/have, or by what they say in their comments

WHAT DO EACH OF THESE COLORS IN THE REP RECEIVED BOX MEAN?

Negative Rep: You lose points.

Null Rep: Member who repped you doesn't meet the requirements to give rep away. You're points stay the same.

Positive Rep: You gain points.

 

Hope that helped....That's the way it is at the other forums I'm at. ^___^

[Hybrid Soldier]

Well, thats obviosuly wrong, because it says you need atleast 1 post to recieve rep, but take a look, even the people with 0 posts have green.

[Hyper]

meh, then what did i do to be bad? lmao.

[stupidsoul1]

hyper u arent bad

 

im just confused because shouldnt we all start with a freaking green dot??

 

its like majority of us are technically non-exsistant 0__o my head cant take the confusion

 

isnt this going to like divide the forums...im not saying i personally want a green dot..but whats with some people here not having one?

[o0SugaxNxSpice0o]

^ Isn't that like the green members and the blue member thing though?

 

I don't think we've done anything bad. Eh. I have noticed members with no posts or even 1 post are green. Very messed up! Looks like the majority of us don't want to see this =) Anyway it's just a dot! Don't worry about it.

i don't think so.. i mean, green is a respected status, blue is just.. normal. no sides there, just people who are good with certain things.

 

but yeah, the dot things.. are just.. stupid.

[Hybrid-Heart]

i still don't really get it.. *dumbass i know*

but as far as i get it.. i think it isn't necesary..

so i'd say no..

[ATLien]

Ok, well 80% of people said no so I decided to take it down.
