New reputation system

Doesn't Doc Martin cure dogs?



I was going to rate your post by the way but it wouldn't let me. I suppose one votes enough though

I think I've just spotted a possible drawback with this new feature. I was having a mooch around trying it out. Not voting but seeing how I vote. I can go to any post and vote on a specific message/user, even ones I'm not subscribed to.

This could be well open to abuse. If I didn't like a message from a user or they upset me. I could go to all their posts and give them meganegs (sounds like a new disease lol)

What recourse would we have in this situation? (Would Dr martin cure us? lol)

I hate the idea of this system

Are people going to be afraid to post because of their reputation?

Am I going to be reading posts with the idea of judging people in the back of my mind?

If I were to rate a person negatively - wouldn't that influence me when reading their other posts in the future?

JPS

I can't see any scales apart from my own ones Board guides can't join in on the fun then?

I totally agree,I didn't realise you could leave negative feedback on this ...........................we jhave enough problems on the boards without this going on in the background.


How could you monitor if someone was just being vindictive towards an individual.

I completely agree with this post. Far too much chance of people abusing this.

They might not enable it so that you can leave negative feedback - but even so, there may be posters you've got it in your mind you don't like - and no matter what they say they're not getting any votes from you

No matter how it's set up - I just don't like the fact that it's getting us in the frame of mind of judging each other

By their IP I'd imagine traf?

sra555 might know how it works better than me. I don't like it for what it's worth.
