I vote for the addition of negative reputation
Obama Out!
Who the bloody smurf gave me a rep?
Remove this immediately. I do not appreciate positive reinforcement.
Rep doesn't seem to be enabled on the Metallic Blue styleset. sadface
also FG disabled reputation last month. Is EoFF becoming FG and vice versa?
edit: in fact I don't see it on any style set.
edit 2: oh it doesn't seem to be showing up on the postbits of any style sets, but it does show up in user profiles. Yet Yars' screenshot shows it on the postbit. What gives?
He took that screenshot while the templates were being edited. People notice things extremely quickly around here.
FG was an EoFF ripoff for years, so it's nothing new that it's trying to emulate us (until it becomes common knowledge and they go through another 'we must not be like EoFF' phase).EoFF doesn't emulate FG any more than it emulates any other forum out there. FG just happens to be the one you know. This was inspired by TheAdminZone (since that's where I first noticed it being used to effect) and adjusted to fit EoFF (ie, it's more about knowing you did good than being able to boast about it).
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
The amount of reputation won't show up because b0b doesn't like it and because well, I mean, whatever. The ability to give someone is down by the warn button.
For the record I haven't really consciously modelled any of FG's recent decisions after EoFF. If anything I'd say we emulated EoFF way more when I first started FG than we do now. With that particular comment I was mostly commenting on the relaxation of rules here, which was something I'd been arguing in favour of for years before it happened.
I can kind of see why putting it on the postbit could turn it into an e-popularity contest but at the same time I don't really see it happening here. Then again this is the same board that completely removed post counts because they felt people were making it into an e-penis measuring contest, so you know, whatever
He's lying, Aaron. In the Staff Forum we have a thread entitled "List of ideas we can steal from Fool's Gold".
I knew it!
Is this supposed to be a revelation of sorts?Originally Posted by The Man
EoFF and FG started trading places, like, a year ago.
That's more or less what I suggested in my first post. The two fora really aren't particularly different from each other apart from the people who post there. And the smurf filter.
Easily abused system, but I think the fact that it doesn't show up will help with that.
I agree. Meat Puppet is infamous around these parts.
me too!
