Reputation system update
 

Reputation points can no longer be awarded/deducted in the "Newbie Issues/Say "Hi"/Testing" section. Previously, the reputation system was activated in ALL sections.

Minimum reputation points in order to gain first point of reputation power is now 25. (was 15)

Posts older than 2 days cannot be awarded or deducted. There used to be no such limit.

Regards,

sam.

What is the rational behind this new system? By the way I am 100% all for it. I am always trying to distinguish the true samster from the the fake ones. Just my honest views. :D

Re: Reputation system update
 

The changes are aimed at reducing the number of clones with reputation power.

I will change the algorithm every few months to minimise the impact of multiple nicks on the reputation system. However, bear in mind that it will only reduce the problem.. it won't solve it.

All automated systems have weaknesses that can be exploited. It's an ongoing cat and mouse game. I have been going through the database system periodically to disable clone nicks and it is taking up too much of my time. This new algorithm will give me more time to go fishing for the next month or so. I'll then come back and tweak things further if necessary.

Re: Reputation system update
 

Sam,
please take a look on my case, I have been surfing under this nick Aakumu2, as I was zapped to negative zone and our PM back and forth. I decided to surf with the new nick.
Out of the sudden I got put back to negative again and my power is 0 again.
If you do not mind, I like to know what are the rules as and when it come to losing my points. I did not hide and create clones, I was very open about my situation.
I do not have a lot of points, but would like to ask for your reconsideration.

Thanks.

My humble two cents.

Re: Reputation system update
 

Boss Sam
I was put in moderation, with the reasons of being of a clone.
Fine, put the other nick in moderation, I plead for my first nick to be reinstated. please reviewed my case.
Thanks.

cheers.

Hi bro,
I have a question, I have read the reasons you put samster in moderation.
How do they earn their way back from moderation?
If there is no way, why don't you just banned those samsters?
I mean the system works if there are zapping upping from other bros and sis here.
That means if you are also a samster, there should be a logical way to earn back the points.
Me as an example, you put me in Negative points for creating a clone, which I created a new nick a long time ago because I was zapped to neg points.
For some reason only known to yourself; you returned my statues and my powers.

I was honest enough to put in my signature, I created a new nick so my friends would know who I was.
It was ok if you zapped the clone that I was using, but to zapped my original nick again after you added points to me it is baffling.
Afterwards, you added 70 points to make it more confusing.
Please help me to understanding, I know you have said that points are not importance, but to me the points I have earn it's represent, who I am and where is standing among my brothers and sisters.

My humble two cents.

Re: Reputation system update
 

To the Moderator,
I like to put my case up for consideration.
I was wondering if you review my statues.
Thanks.

My humble two cents.

Re: Reputation system update
 

Hi, system keep asking me to spead points around before able to add to XXX person, its getting annoying to do this with the 2 day limit rule.

Re: Reputation system update
 

Bro,
You have to upped about 50 people first before you can up the same person.

Cheers.
