Member Reputation [BT Rep]

[t0mmy]

yeah thats also happened to me in the past, when a certain user said he really needed the account and in the end tried to trade it away..

I know it's not allowed to "demand" people to give you rep for an invite, but I've seen a lot people request people to rep them in giveaways and I know I've heard of people who ask people to rep them after they give an invite through PM... is that allowed? Even people who say "if you give me rep, your chances of getting invited", etc.

If so, can it be disallowed and can I report it? It's not only annoying, but it's kind of rude and requesting the rep is not really earning it - thus making rep completely inaccurate in showing the decency of a member. In a way, it is kind of forcing people to add rep because though it's stated as a suggestion, the people interested in the invite(s) have little choice in the matter.

I've been seeing a rising amount of giveaways like that recently, just wondered the stance on it...

I completely agree. That seems questionable to me as well. Especially the types that have "no longer trade" in their sig and are handing out a bunch of low level trackers to anyone who asks in hopes they will get enough rep points and karma through giveaways to then request a top level site.

[RealitY]

Those requesting any rep prior to giving an invite should be reported. If they suggest those that give rep are more likely to get the invite they should be reported also. These situations arent acceptable. Those that ask for rep politly after giving an invite is acceptable...

Why do i have "trusted trader (nice organization)" in my BT Rep?

Who the hell is this stupid guy "(+.[___]·:·)"?

I'm not a trader so can a mod delete that Rep?


Thanks!

those who do it for the points will not get what they are after, if i could id already have 20+ points from making accounts on sites and idling them until the sites become invite only. then the invitee/new owner of acc. will try and do the same.

ps: i just randomly remembered the sound of Resident evil when you exit the menu and go back to gameplay

That Rep Points thing, in my opinion, is a biblical proportions disgrace. At least how works now, other thing would be a system like that stoi proposed.
And I´ve read a lot of complains about tricky RP, people who has never traded have comments like "good trader", etc. That should be forbidden, or give the user the capability of accepting or deny the RP before it appears in his profile.

[1000possibleclaws]

yeah zaa was going around giving 'good trader' reps to people a while ago, for example the WTAW

[tknaught]

Anyone giving invites to sites, whether high or low level, should look at a users post history rather than rep points. It's already painfully easy to game the system by offering up seed hours, since it's never hard to find people who want them, they're easier to get than low-level invites, and you don't carry the risk you do from inviting someone to a site.
