I have already seen many threads suggesting similar things, yet they all seemed to miss the point. In some of them I have posted these ideas, but now I'm putting it here so that it'll get a wider audience.

There should be sort of a "respect points" thing, like in stackexchange sites.

For example, Scripting Helpers.

If it was to work like stackoverflow ( which I presume none of you use ) then :

You would get +15 reputation for the person asking the question accepting your answer.

You get +2 reputation for accepting an answer.

You get +10 reputation for getting your answer voted up.

You get +5 reputation for your question being voted up.

You get -2 reputation for your question and/or answer being voted down.


Now based on how much reputation you have in whichever forum you have it in, you have different privelages.

If you would like a list of those privelages used, look here : http://stackoverflow.com/privileges

and as you can see, no alt account can immediately start upvoting and down voting questions/answers. Nor can you upvote/downvote your own questions/answers. And with around 3-5 down votes, a question can be removed and locked. Thus, the forum trolls are almost immediately stopped.

And since none of you have the decency to have read the whole thing, nor looked at the other link.

It requires 15 reputation to upvote and 75 to downvote.

I know what you said. If you take the time to read what I said, then you would realize that trolls wouldn't be able to do this.

This idea is pretty good, no matter how you other forumers think, this is great! It stands out, and hopefully, we'll get the forum reputation done along with updates, and that way, we REALLY COULD clean up the forums!

Are you really this dull minded? No, trolls wouldn't be able to do anything. If you're going to post on a thread, at least read what the thread is about and everything in it. Obviously you have no real purpose being here.

Frittle is obviously short minded, and thinks that he automatically knows what the WHOLE thread is about. He ovbiously thinks he knows everything from reading the first paragraph. Now you, sir, SDuke524, I can rely on to make good posts, and good ideas!

i have read it multiple times, and it says,"And with around 3-5 down votes, a question can be removed and locked."

So basically, the forums will become a wasteland if there a a few trolls online.

That happens as is a lot of times already. Not many new posts coming in for a lil while isn't a huge dilemma, look at scripters for example. Plus isn't it one of the biggest complains in S&I that there's too many spam threads?

Support.You would also need 3 posts that are voted up to even vote.But people who hate you can just down vote every post you make.

@converse

I agree with that. I believe only the following forums should have it :

- Let's Make a Deal
- Suggestions & Ideas
- Building Helpers
- Scripting Helpers
- Technical Issues
- Game Test (gametest.roblox.com)
- Website Test (sitetest.roblox.com)
- Mac Test
- Sports
- Music
- Movies/TV/Books
- Clans & Guilds
- Scripters

Not because I have anything against the other forums, it's just these are the only ones where it would make since to have them.

Is everyone in S&I this ignorant? ONCE AGAIN this STOPS TROLLS. Except @penut and @theblock don't take the time to ACTUALLY READ everything. Therefore they can't wrap their minds around the subject.
