Trusted trader points

**MCHeshPants420** · 12-27-2006, 02:36 PM

At the moment everything seems to be targeted at those people who come here begging for invites to private trackers, sites who don't really want their invites traded on public sites.

What would be nice is if we could have a proper rep system for all the members, if someone had a good rep you could assume they were a decent egg and okay to trade with.

But yeah:

it doesn't mean anything to smart people and it tricks the not-so-smart people into thinking it's a worthy way to gauge whether to trust someone.

I'm going to feel safer trading/inviting a regular Lounge poster than any of the nubs who spend their days hoarding invites to over-rated trackers in the hopes of getting another green square.

And what happens if somebody makes 245 low key trades (or reps himself on the sly) and earns himself 200+ rep points and then starts being naughty to noobs? He'll get away with it for ages because he has a high rep and the noob will, presumably, have no rep.

You can't even take rep points away from people. Very flawed.

So, how do we get rid of these "Trading Rep: +2" under our names if we don't want them there?

We've all had a play around with the sytem, exposed its flaws and the admin have fixed a few problems but now I'd like the trading rep blemish removed from under my name please.

Obviously you didn't even look.
Usercp -> edit options -> uncheck 'Show My Reputation Level'

Cheers Ross, thanks for the info.

Can I rep you for being helpful.

I don't see that option there.
