All people do is troll with it. Doesn't really serve much purpose except to make Don feel special.
-
Even though Don is an cool guy, I lol'd.
I'm okay with it, though. The system on the old forum was pretty good, though. Maybe mix the two? We vote on posts and the -x/+y shows up?

NO OMG IM SO MUCH ON TOP OMG MOST RESPECTED.
I don't really care.
I was top respected on old forum and am now. :trollface:
I'd much rather see the karma system back than the respect system though, apart from very few cases, all people do with it is maximum overtroll.

Was pretty easy to troll with karma system too.
I remember some guy raged and took mine and Banana Hat's respect to -80.

Yes, but it still was much harder to troll with it.
And once it was down, you couldn't really boost it up anymore, which was cool.

Until you realize one of the following:
A) This is the internet. It is structured by trolls and idiots.
B) Other people's opinions on you don't matter much, considering the majority of type of people on the internet.
C) It really isn't a product of your "popularity", or "coolness".
Or
D) Don is, and will always be, your superior.
Case closed.

I'm with this

I am to. All the rating systems like the old karma are shit on forums.. :-[

Why don't we just allow +1'ns?
I mean, a lot of other forums have where you can 'thank' someone for making a useful post. I don't see how anyone would troll with just +1'ing.

I really don't understand why we even have a respect system, it will never truly reflect what type of person you are/acting like. Other trolls could +1 other trolls and really the respect system has absolutely no point unless everyone in the community is mature enough to not rage and only +1/-1 other people when they deserve it.
The respect system has no purpose and really wont make any difference whether or not it stays. The current respect system cannot be relied on due to the people who troll by -1'ing and people who +1 each other for no reason. Even with the only +1 system your only solving half the problem, people will still show how unreliable the system is by +1'ing unnecessarily.
Really the root of the problem is trolls, and ignorant people who +1/-1 without reason, however you cannot rid the internet/community of trolls and idiots. I think the +1/-1'ing should be left to moderators only.
The entire idea of a respect system is to see how helpful/trollish people are, people in this community have shown not everyone can handle the responsibility of dictating how a post is helpful/not. People should only +1 when a post is helpful, NOT funny/humorous/cool, and only -1 when the post is trolling/spammed/similar.
tl;dr: you better have fucking read this, its about you.

Limit each user to a single +1 every 10 minutes would help prevent boosting.

I agree, i think only Admin's/Moderator's should be given the privilege to +1/-1 under the circumstances. They became an admin/moderator for a reason, so they should be mature enough not to boost/troll people with this ''privilege''

Its not about the extremely high respect from boosting. It was that the person unnecessarily +1'd a post.
The whole point of my long post was to point out that its not the boosting/trolling but how the respect system is still used incorrectly.

I've seen people +1 just because they agree on a subject, that isn't what its for. Moderators should be the only people able to +1/-1 mainly because they have proven themselves to be mature enough to handle the job of moderating a forum. The community however has +1'd for silly reasons that the +1 wasn't meant for. I can be sure most people with respect above 100 weren't that helpful to deserve it. I can also be sure people who weren't trolled but still have respect below -50 probably didn't do that much spamming/insulting to deserve it.
Ill use your post of the +1 only system as an example. At the time of writing its +4, however I see nothing helpful about your post, you were simply stating your opinion/idea and since 4 people agreed they +1'd.
The point is the community as a whole has shown they can't use the respect system correctly, now its the moderators turn.

I don't know about everyone else, but I earned my respect. I don't really +1 or -1 people unless I strongly disagree, or it was just a generally stupid or useless post.

can you people read. i even italicized so that people DON'T go and argue "i earned my respect"
I don't know about everyone else, but I earned my respect. I don't really +1 or -1 people unless I strongly disagree, or it was just a generally stupid or useless post.
that is what im talking about. the respect system isn't about whether you disagree/agree its how helpful someone is to the community. and -1'ing for a stupid or useless post isn't correct either. if its generally harmful/insulting another member/spam, etc. then yes -1. but its by no means an opinion.
oh another example, frank -1'd thecat100's post even though there was nothing harmful/spammy about it.
-
Then mabe put a limit on how many votes you can give in a day?

death said that earlier, like i said in an earlier post:

people use the system incorrectly, and the community as a whole pretty much invalidated any meaning the respect system had in the first place.
the +1 again should be used for helpful posts.

He's got something harmful, his fucking writing. And I'd also -1 many other posts. They make me want to take my eyes off with a fucking tea spoon.

Sweet Jesus.
I'm gone for three hours and this thread goes to fucking hell. This is a prime example of the community's immaturity, if there isn't one reasonable person posting constantly to keep a thread inline, someone goes and flames....

Then leave.
-
On a more on topic note, is coolzeldad working on this yet?
-
don't think so
-
Then leave.
I never hinted anything toward leaving. I just believe if people in the community had any dignity they'd at least be ashamed of themselves. Also leaving a community doesn't solve the problem, the problem is the community, not me.... That and the community is great, it just needs some self control.
Oh and if anyone takes this offensively, I will end you.

'Bout half the community is like this.

Anyways, Welcome to Internet!

You don't want a post voting system because it is being used to troll.
I don't see that as a reason to remove the voting system, it's being used legitimately as well.
