Do something about Revenge Reputations

[DinPro]

I've ran into this issue a countless number of times, but I've managed to always get around it and sort things out, people trash your thread you chuck them a -rep for thrashing and there you go you have your -rep and you have to remove your -rep in order for them to remove yours, reporting never worked (for me). It's a well known thing that should really be sorted out. Maybe making the report reputation system faster and better (again could be just me that's not getting my reps removed fast enough). But it's a serious issue and NEEDS to be sorted out. Here's what you can do

Method #1 - Negative/Neutral Bot Reputation check

• Have every reputation be checked by a bot, that way pointless neutral/negative reps could be removed

Add-on Method #2 - Verify the bots reputation check

• If you aren't sure the bot would do the job, get staff to check the reputations that the bot thinks should be deleted

Method #3 - More severe punishments for False Repping

• I think there should be a harder punishment rather than just getting your rep removed, maybe first offence a 24hr suspension, next one 5d suspension, or something like that

Method #4 - More severe punishments for Trashing

• Everyone has their opinions, but strait out trashing should done by using the same method about bot checking reported replies/threads (Method #1,#2) Punishments like not being able to comment on as many threads or something like that would do it, this would instantly calm the fire with revenge reps and -reps

So by your saying someone can freely trash my thread(s) without a punishment.. hmm

So you think the reputation system is a way to ''punish'' someone?

So when someone trashes/has criticism in your thread, you feel it's absolutely necessary to negrep them?


You've created this thread without actually knowing the rules. You're suggesting bots and automation tools for something that isn't even against the rules.
I'd honestly suggest trashing this suggestion and starting off with getting your form of 'revengerep' within the rules because at this time, it's perfectly allowed. Needless to say, I completely disagree with it being disallowed.

your opinion and did you even read the thread? The method I suggested for punishing when people thrash

"Method #4 - More severe punishments for Trashing

no it's a way to annoy people u know you can come up with any reason to neg rep any guy you don't even know and staff won't care about any proof u have they just side with the guy who repped u even if he didn't have proof LOL it's quite funny

the reputation system is overly abused and staff really don't give a fuck about it but members value it it's quite dumb

What I believe should happen is that when you give rep you should be given a notification a few days later about the rep you have given asking if you would still like to confirm it. Once you deny/accept you have to wait a certain time limit till you can rep that particular user again.

That expressed my point way better

look at my last neg rep that's the definition of revenge neg rep the user backed out of the deal after accepting my tos and me working on it for a bit the next day then i neg rep him for it the next thing i know i am neg repped for being angry when i did nothing but say we have nothing else to talk about and blocked him wasn't even immature nor toxic lol.

he just came up with a random excuse to neg rep me pure revenge rep and abuse of the system.

How is it a waste of money? It's to give users a choice to revoke their actions and to make sure rep is certain...

there is something called trashing a rep.

 

[DinPro]

Read the reputation rules, reputation isn’t to be used as a “punishment” lol

Bruh did you even read my response?

 

[DinPro]

I read it, you said make more punishments for “trashing” and giving negative reputation

Yeah exactly.

 

[DinPro]

punishments for giving negative reputation

9.4 Do not use reputation as a currency, reward, condition, incentive, punishment or deterrent.

It's more to warn users that the person is toxic/immature etc.. rather than a punishment. I said there needs to be a punishment for FALSE neg/neutral reps
