Well I said I didn't care one way or the other and I don't, but here are some of my solutions if it makes the board a better place. (ok, I’m just bored the board is slow at the moment)
1. The simplest solutions get rid of the entire thing or change nothing.
2. Make everybody's rep go back down to zero,
2-a. Make everybody's rep go back down to zero, have everybody be able to give a maximum rep of one point, have rep go up as before.
2-b. Make everybody’s rep go down to zero, have everybody give out zero rep.
2-c. Make everybody’s rep go down to zero, have rep go up as before, but make rep points needed to raise rep power go up on an exponential scale.
2-d. Make everybody’s rep power go down to zero, have rep go up as before, but let people pick the number of rep points they want to give out.
2-e. Make everybody’s rep power go down to zero, have rep go up as before, but let people pick the number of rep points they want to give out. Put a cap on the total number of rep points somebody can spend on given rep.
2-f. Make everybody’s rep power go down to zero, have rep go up as before, but let people pick the number of rep points they want to give out. Put a cap on the total number of rep points somebody can spend on given rep, make rep points needed to raise rep power go up on an exponential scale.
3. Leave rep where it is at, have rep go up as before
3-a. Leave rep where it is at, have rep go up as before, but make rep points needed to raise rep power go up on an exponential scale. Readjust everybody rep accordingly.
3-b. Leave rep where it is at, have rep go up as before, but make rep points needed to raise rep power go up on an exponential scale. Readjust everybody rep accordingly, but let people pick the number of rep points they want to give out.
3-c. Leave rep where it is at, have rep go up as before, but make rep points needed to raise rep power go up on an exponential scale. Readjust everybody rep accordingly, but let people pick the number of rep points they want to give out. Put a cap on the total number of rep points somebody can spend on given rep.
3-d. Leave rep where it is at, have rep go up as before, let everybody choose the amount of rep they want to give out
3-e. Leave rep where it is at, have rep go up as before, let everybody choose the amount of rep they want to give out. Put a cap on the total number of rep points somebody can spend on given rep.
4. Time constraints for repping people.
4-a. Change nothing
4-b. Keep it the way it is but add in a time constraint so you have to wait a predetermined amount of time even if you spread the love enough to get back to them.
4-c. Make it either/or where you can spread the love or you can wait a predetermined amount of time to rep somebody.
4-d. Make it so you just have to wait a predetermined amount of time before you can rep somebody again.
4-e. Use any of the above but allow people to continue to rep people, the extra reps will be counted as zero rep unless a condition above is met. Don’t have extra reps count towards spreading the love if using that option, or against the time before you can rep people again in a predetermined amount of time option. Basically you would be allowing a free number of zero reps.
5. Use some weird combination of the above things.
6. What to do with the congratulatory rep threads
6-a. Put them all into the post games section.
6-b. Put all except for one into the post games section.
6-c. Create one large rep thread in the member’s section.
6-d. Create one large rep thread in the member’s section. Put the rest into the post games section.
6-e. Create one large thread and put it into the post games section.
6-f. Only have rep threads at certain intervals ex. 100+, 300+, 1000+
6-h. Only have rep threads at certain intervals ex. 100+, 300+, 1000+, but restrict them as stated above.
6-i. Don’t allow rep threads
7. Ask D-rock what your rep should be, and have it be adjusted to where he rates you on his scale of awesomeness. For example D-rock would be the highest with a score of 7.84532 (ok I am just joking on this one, just wanted to see if you actually read this far lol):1orglaugh
I am sure there is a lot of stuff I forgot about, after writing all that I can see why I don’t care that much…too much work for something that isn’t that important.
