I've mentioned this previously, but that thread died down, so I'll make another. I'd like to see a reputation system on the forums.
The reputation system is there for 2 reasons. To reward good posters and to punish spammers and bad content posters. If you look a post, you can give it a rep, while if you dislike it, a minus rep.
The main concerns are rep abuse. To sort this problem out, one rep is limited to one IP. This will cut down on alts abusing the system. People can also use proxies and VPNs though, so to stop that, you can only rep 10 times a day. Newly made accounts from the current year need 15 reps to be able to rep themselves.
If a player receives excessive minus reps, he/she will not be able to rep for several days and in an hourly sweep, the offending post will be removed. I would also like to add that minus reps will not affect the rep count, but are there to remove offensive posts and spam.
Another concern is when people will minus rep enemies, and spam rep someone they like. To cut down on that, I suggest not implementing the rep system into several forums. C&G, OT, RT, and LMaD, I feel are some of the rowdier forums in which the players do NOT deserve a system like this. So the system will not be implemented there. I feel the rep system belongs in S&I, I Made That, Help, several Game Creation forums and some forums in the Entertainment part.
This system is not foolproof and there are still many people who can exploit it, but I believe it can be used to make these forums a better place. |

| Support. LMaD, C&G, RT, and OT have too many trolls. They shouldn't have this in those forums if thisnever becomes a feature. |

| Well the "reward" as I put it, is a rep count which records how much reputation you've received. I guess ROBLOX can add hats, gear and other stuff for people who reach a certain rep count. It's more of a distinction. |

| I agree, trolls are a huge concern. Minus reps do not affect your rep count, but are used for daily forum sweeps to get rid of spam and offensive threads. However, we still worry about up repping someone. Perhaps if we could report for "rep-abuse" to prevent people excessively up repping someone or minus repping someone. |

Well there are tonnes of different ways to prevent most trolls.
1) A limit to how many reps you can make per day 2) Limit reps to one IP 3) New users made this year will now be allowed to rep unless they have 25 reps 4) A rep abuse report option
I'll try figuring more out, soon. |
