Black Op Posted July 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 Wildfire Games Community Forums Reputation SystemHow does it work?The Reputation system basically allows you to give anonymous feedback on users' posts. If someone makes a helpful post, you can give them reputation points by clicking the +/- in the avatar space of the user. This will redirect you to a page where you can also submit some feedback on the post.The feedback and reputation you receive will appear on a separated page when you click on the "Reputation" link in your avatar space.Only people with 100 or more posts may use the reputation system and give other people reputation.When I give someone reputation, how many Reputation points will they receive?You always give one point of reputation when incrementing or decrementing someone's reputation.Are the points I give deducted from my own reputation?No. No points will be deducted from your own reputation score when you give someone else reputation.Can people see how much Reputation I have?Yes, however, they have to click your reputation rank in a post of yours to see that. When people only view a thread where you posted they will currently only see your reputation rank. People can also see who gave you what reputation and for what reasons. This is also shown in when you click on someone reputation rank.Can I decrease someone's reputation anonymously?No, you can't from November 11th 2004 on. Only positive reputation changes can be done anonymously.LevelsThese are the current levels (they can be seen in the avatar space of user, depending on his reputation) - they are most likely due to be changed in the future, though:less than -10 - Outcast-10 - Infamous-05 - Mildly Deviant000 - Neutral005 - Notable010 - Respectable020 - Commendable030 - Splendid040 - Admirable050 - Distinguished060 - Illustrious070 - Spectacular080 - Glorious090 - Renowned100 - Beyond Repute110 - marvellous120 - Tremendous130 - Sensational140 - Extraordinary150 - Magnificent160 - Phenomenal170 - UnequaledCan I give as many people reputation as I like?Yes, but there are some restrictions. You can currently only give reputation to 20 people per day, and you can give reputation to the same member only once a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
