Warning Points

[Ismael&Blair 66]

You also have reputation points. I would guess they are a tally of +1s (I remember seeing this briefly before and a few members were red when you could give -1)

I was actually looking around to find out what are REPUTATION points? I see that I have 17 of them. Do you get more reputation points if you post more or comment on people's topics?

This is an interesting feature.

Green check box to the right builds reputation. So the more people "like" what you are saying the more reputation you have. This is all relative, so take it with a grain of salt. It would probably be more accurate if we allowed negative votes but that would be a recipe for mischief .

Maybe now we'll have reputation padding to go along with the post padding. I can think of a few candidates.

Assign a warning point to every time a moderator contacted you with that official template, and you will be close enough.

Apologies - you lost me at 'template'.

How about, "preformatted personal message" complete with fine print and expired links?

Thank you!! The only reason I hang out here is to get as many posts and reputation points as possible!! I might make a few dozen sock puppet accounts so I can plus each one of my posts at least 20+ times!! I'll be number one in rep in no time.

I plussed your post too. One good turn deserves another.

The system does have a method for this, but there is a downside. You can read the note/warning when you are warned however the system will automatically prevent you from posting until you acknowledge that you read it via a pop-up/check box.

Thoughts? It is easy for me to enable. ..

If we are going to be allowed to see our total points tally, then enable this feature instead.

I think showing everyone their own scorecard would be a good idea. For the narcissists, it would act as a spur to get themselves banned faster. For the remainder of the inmates (myself included), it might engender a little extra civility into the discussions.

oh. i think i know of what you write, sorta, sideways.

I'm old school I gets my email as ascii. I don't use any html or embedded stuff, ever. think of lynx on a vt-220 terminal running sco unix . that stone age stuff...

Ya, I gots some things in from the mods that meets yer criteria. I'll count, see whats what. Hint - you and I are probably close in count.
