Topic: [applaud]/[smite] system? - page 6. (Read 18780 times)
One problem I see with this is that people who simply disagree on a subject will start giving each other negative karma and eventually it will invalidate the helpful post they make
I think either the advanced system or karmalog would be good so that abuse of the system can be identified. Has anyone used a forum where this feature worked particularly well? How was it configured and what was the social convention around it?

The problem is that many of the informative posts I've made are on other forums/in the past! I'll never get my reputation up now that I just lurk (hint: I do post, quite a bit even!)
If used fairly, I can see this being a great benefit.
Although I'm still not sure of the forum ranking system.

I'm assuming it's based on post count? Rank increases every 50? Posts?
Hopefully the reputation system helps 'general' information

I do like the advanced system though. OCN uses it, and it works very nicely.

Yes, it will be interesting to see how it develops and/or how scores compare to my intuitions about the subjective reputations of other users.

for the forums? It would probably also be good early on to establish a social convention of treating these ratings seriously rather than just as a joke. As long as the established user base does this the feature should retain some correlation to its intended purpose.
