Crimson Sunrise Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 While this seems like an interesting idea, in practice it's just a means of segregation of forum users by users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vexx32 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Perhaps.In any case, Kaspy's disabled the feature entirely for the present so it can't cause any more trouble. Shouldn't be any more shenanigans going around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinglet Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Once upon a time there was a hardcore hater on the Elite: Dangerous forums. His rep bar was a brilliant red, just like his bloodshot eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worir4 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Does the red rep system have titles like the green rep one? e.g "Allowed to draw blueprints"? But for red rep it would be - "Never allowed to hold a pen" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tw1 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Whaah???????I concur with this statement.Does the red rep system have titles like the green rep one? e.g "Allowed to draw blueprints"? But for red rep it would be - "Never allowed to hold a pen"Yes! Though I don't think Negative rep should be a common thing, (we want this place to stay friendly, right?) this is a thing that should exist.

temporalExile Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I actually think that certain users should be able to give negative rep. It should be only available to users with a reputation and post count above 100, to prevent abuse though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Iron Crown Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I think negative repping is a Bad Idea. The potential for trolling, vendetta, and hurt feelings is immense. Better IMO that we can lift others up but not bring them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vexx32 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Yeahhhhno. I mean, look at what happened when one or two people accidentally got given negative-rep. We have a five-page thread as a result of that. Granted, not all of it is complaining and freaking out, but it was at first.As it currently stands, nobody has access to -rep, and that's probably the better way to do it. +rep is simply a much less troublesome metric.
