What if there was a 'Thanks' button that gave a score without a negative option?
This is a great idea, and works brilliantly on many other forums I frequent. It makes it easier to separate the drivel from actual knowledgeable posts, too.

Rep system = popularity contest

I'd actually try to beat TW Fox and get even less rep than him....
But what would happen is people will figure that out and increase my rep.
Then i'll come out with that was my whole plan
People would become confused
Then it would be some inception style madness. Was that my plan or was it to counter or again counter the counter plan, or perhaps just UTTER MADNESS??????????????????????![]()

What?
If it were ever implemented then I don't think there'd be a negativity rating.
This is what I was thinking of...

You think people wouldn't abuse that on here?![]()
No, hate that sort of system. I can never be arsed to use it and then it's just an unsightly addition to each page, a waste of space. What's wrong with a verbal 'thanks'?
In forums like GD that are open topics wise, thanks buttons lead to smart ass comments by "Thanks whores" rather than useful contributions. I have seen other boards become useless because if it. I wouldn't like it here.

Quick OT - Please could you look at my trust issue Burnsy?
Since my username change from Oxlde to Oxide™ I am unable to log into my trust account
I have sent numerous emails to mods and been told it will get looked at then nothing happens![]()
Not much gets discussed in there then?![]()
Because the forum is still 27 versions behind the current release of vbulletin? Updates/Change doesn't seem particularly high on the agenda.

You really don't know?![]()
I don't know if you're serious or not. I'll assume not, so bugger off winding me up![]()
