YugoRocketsFan Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 (edited) Last time the vote to have neg rep was split at exactly 15 votes saying yes, and 15 votes saying no. We'll let the people vote again this time since there seems to be much more support for it. So this is the proposition, would you like neg rep? Yes or No, and there will be 3 neg reps available every 24 hours. The poll will be available until Thursday at midnight!

reno Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 I'm for it, let the free market of otr decide your reputation, go away with the 3 per day limits tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 It's worth a try. If it's abused go back to only positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Yes. If we have positive the we should have negative as well. Limit 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Yes so then Yugo can get all the negative rep he deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YugoRocketsFan Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Yes so then Yugo can get all the negative rep he deserves. I don't troll so I shouldn't get much compared to the positive reps I get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Yeah sure. I say we get reps like they have at bodybuilding.com that would be pretty epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest N/A Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 I am for it as long as we don't abuse. Also, we must not use it if we disagree with the person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YugoRocketsFan Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 I am for it as long as we don't abuse. Also, we must not use it if we disagree with the person. Of course. Neg reps should be anonymous unlike positive reps where the name comes up where you see when people rep you. The main reason I want it is so people don't make posts to just get a rise out of someone like going to a off-topic thread about Coca-Cola and saying LULZ coke sux PEPSI > (just an example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner Real Deal Posted March 27, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 I can't make one anonymous and not the other, and that will create a problem (and a small one, not the biggest). I gave you guys a poll to decide if we should lift the word filter, and I went ahead and did it. Since then, people have been cussing each other out, and I've deleted a few posts that shouldn't have been made. This isn't an option. There are two sites I know of that are ruined partially because of negative reps. They go around and neg-rep each other just because of who that person is (ex. negative reps for every post Sacha makes), and it's really not your call to do something like that. If you agree with a post, there isn't much more to add to a discussion. If you disagree, there's a TON you can add. There's nothing wrong with what we are doing right now. Sometimes, I have to make the decisions, despite how the community feels. How many people wanted Diesel unbanned the first time he was tossed? Plenty, and it happened. The second time? Plenty. Eventually, people found out he didn't give a damn about the site, that he had multiple accounts, that he was posting under different (and fake) Facebook and Twitter names, threatening members and athletes. I would rather just eliminate reputation points altogether, than to add a negative rep. It doesn't matter what certain members promise...3-4 guys won't be speaking for the entire community, and saying the system won't be abused is like me saying members will never up and leave the site. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Tbh, I only wanted this so I could give a negative rep to Sacha every time he made a dumb post and I'm sure many others did to. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Truth Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 This isn't an option. There are two sites I know of that are ruined partially because of negative reps. They go around and neg-rep each other just because of who that person is (ex. negative reps for every post Sacha makes), and it's really not your call to do something like that.idk what sites you're talking about, but I gotta think our community is a lot more mature. if we put a limit on how much you could neg rep in a day and if we told members to not abuse the system, I'm sure we could handle it. even if someone gets neg repped all the time, it's not a big deal imo. it's your call, though, and I'll respect your opinion either way.

BasX Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 I've seen a negative rep work and I've seen it not work but overall it has to be all or nothing; meaning you need either a positive/negative or nothing. The one issue that comes up is how lazy negative repping can be which leads to 'why you neg me bro' and posts and posts about it. But why not, shouldn't be too hard to remove it if all goes bad.
