Add images in reputation.

[Joshua C]

The suggestion is simple, most of us don't want to keep on downloading images then uploading them.

Allow us so we can use "copy image" and then paste it into the reputation box.


Screenshot something, right click on the picture, click "Copy-image" what this does is it will copy the image to your clipboard

If you try this on discord and do the above step, discord allows you to upload those images into the chat without giving a link.

I’d like to allow people to provide a link to an image/file for automatic conversion into an attachment, as well as allow users a better previewing window for all of the uploaded evidence. This suggestion, for making use of clipboards, would fit in well with those improvements.

This can already be done. Take the screenshot link, paste it in the file name field. See below.

The ability to do that only being available through an unintuitive use of MS Windows isn’t quite satisfactory.

Back about a year ago we introduced some pretty radical changes to the way that we handle reputation. We made all reputation left by banned members be marked as uncounted in your reputation totals and disabled the reporting functionality to reduce abuse and targeted. The changes that we made were certainly controversial at the time, but looking back I'm a firm believer that the changes we made back then were the best that we could have made.

Our reputation system is very far from being perfect in its current state, and we fully recognise that. Since it's introduction we've changed many policies and spent countless hours developing new custom systems, such as disputing feedback.

At the moment we aren't planning to do any more development for our site until we can migrate to XF2. We're also not going to be making any changes to our policies surrounding reputation. Our system is stable at the moment, and making a change now when we're going to be redeveloping everything shortly isn't beneficial. Perhaps once we move to XF2 and have fixed all the bugs that come with that and have more time for some new development and to consider the impact that instituting new policies will result in.

Until then, I'll move this to denied. Once we migrate to XF2 if you feel that this is still relevant please create a new suggestion thread and we can look into it once again. Thank you to everyone for your support and criticism of our systems, it is definitely the best way for us to improve.

Thank you,
