The first post should be updated to... acknowledge the fact vB4 is different. :unsure:
Yup, exactly that's why I was confused.Quote:

Oh. It is what it is.
oops I forgot this thread was in the Invite section :S I thought it was in Bittorrent.

Look to the left of their posts. It's also visible in their profiles.Quote:

I trade not one time!

then that's your problem.
Per not pro , although you do seem to be a pro trader.Quote:

To avoid human rights issues you can just say that it's has noting to do with nationality and FST is simply positively investing in internet literacy.
Great! a good system for rep!
MOD. I can't give rep to user who gave me invite. I can't find * sign to the left of his post to give him rep. Why?
From what I recall them discussing in another thread, they just took it away for the Giveaway subforum. You can only give rep on trades now. You're the first of many posts foretold to flood the forum, but it seems like a drizzleQuote:

The wave took longer and was less strong than I expected :ermm:Quote:

Rep has always been trade fodder. Whenever I see a huge number of rep points I instantly distrust the person until proven otherwise (ironically it's supposed to be the other way around).
If I could get my one rep point removed, I would.
I once received a rep from someone with a barrage of unwarranted insults on the comment. Made a thread in the report section asking whether it was possible to delete it, and they did so in no time.Quote:

Let's leave it as it is for now.
We're currently studying some possibilities that may give a new meaning to the rep, as in something desirable.
For example, mine is being shown, I have plenty and just one related to a giveaway and none for trading.
The only way you can have "desirable" rep is having two (or three counting giveaways) different kinds of rep, where the bad rep is clearly marked "Trading rep", while the other could be something like "Post rep".
Post rep should also only be positive kinda like "liked". As another option the list of people who liked some posts should be shown and counted, which in turn could make for e.g. Top10 of the last 24 hours, week etc.
Precisely what is being discussed now, soon you will read more on this. ;)Quote:

The thing I mentioned can't be abused that much. The abuse can be limited even more if you can't "like" more than 5-10 posts a day.
The abuse starts when negative rep and reputation power kick in. I remember years ago I lost like a 3/4 of my rep on Zeropaid in two three days from proving one of the established crowd, with lots of rep power, wrong. I would have ended up in the red if some other established member didn't side with me.. or rather against him.
Negative rep and reputation power makes some people afraid to post. And that's not good for any forum. Just watch the activity there now, compared to then.
But what if I make 15-30 likeable posts in a day? What will happen is that so many are going to forget to come back and lick me that my tragic story will destroy the system the very next day.Quote:

Not a karma system, negative rep isn't in the equation.Quote:

More or less this then.How someone feels about another member(ie their "reputation") is an individual thing determined by personal experience and shouldn't be subject to the whims of a bunch of forum hit and runners with no more insight into said individual past the ability to push a button.Quote:

Picture yourself a forum, where every single one of those less than 10 letter, +1, me too, I agree, great post, he/she is right, pwn111 1111111 1111 post can be exchanged with [like].
You can't tell me you see no positives with that.
The idea is good, but in reality... good luck getting people to use the "like" button instead of posting such inane comments. :sly:Quote:

Those features are all inherent to the vB reputation system, which as far as I can see has been radically modified to work as "BT rep" in this forum.
@Cabalo, we can use 2 kinds of rep points. e.g. green rep for the invite and blue rep for the trade (don't use the red one). I also don't suggest the idea of negative rep. With two type of rep we can easily say who is a trader who is not. and (wow....look at that...The great superpagla is going to give a speech :lol:) Human nature is always a little bit competitive. The rep system will give the new members a will to participate more in FST chit-chat(forum talks).:lol:
Sorry I forgot about it....We must have to give a reason while we gave someone a rep point. It's for the rep abuse.......
That's another point worth mentioning.Quote:

A constructive comment is a constructive comment. It doesn't matter who you are or how many posts you've made. :)Quote:

Stupid me, I'm forgetting the fact rep doesn't necessarily equal trading. I have a bunch of them and never traded anything. So do a lot of people here.
