I came here expecting a thread about space.
I am disappointed.

Do you think we should have a reputation system on VGC?? | |||

There is a reputation system in place. It's called your memory.
Your suggestion is unnecessary, unnatural, and ignoring the fact that one automatically builds up a reputation.
I like the idea, but I think it could easily get abused by angry fanboys. You know anyone who posts a pro Xbox 360 comment would get nothing but thumb-downs from PS3 fanboys and visa-versa and on and on until it's as bad as youtube. People would probably register sock accounts to thumb themselves up and down vote their "enemies" extra.
With great power comes great responsibility. With fanboys, they have no sense of responsibility so they just abuse what little power they have.
It's a nice thought though.
If its anything like in saints row then im all for it.
Bet with gooch_destroyer, he wins if FFX and FFX-2 will be at $40 each for the vita. I win if it dont

Interesting idea. Moved this thread to another section which I think is more appropriate.

Thank you :D, i maybe should of posted it their in the first place xD. But it really is a great idea, as it would make people think imo before they post :D, i really like the way ats has it done and would love to see a system in place like it here :D. |
Doubt that since there is no punishment (can't get voted down). Moderations aside.
Also quantity could outweight quality in that case. An average poster with 10k posts (exaggerated) will probably get more reputation than a high quality poster with 1000 posts. So voting down is actually important.
Maybe we could make a limit of ... 10 votes per day or something like that.
I'm sure that a rep system will create more animosity between factions. We don't need to ignite the fanboy wars, they have youtube for that.

Anyway, i thing it would be a very good thing to implement here. I dont see how it could be abused??, as only people that had something good to say would get stars?? (Unlike me most of the time xD). |
you can try it by saying something good about the MOVE and look how many stars you will get 
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Interesting idea, but I'd have to agree with kain on this one. It's easy enough to tell someone's rep here.
(although my memory is complete shit, and nearly forget everything about posters everytime they change their avatar)
