As me and Luke were assigned Community Admins, I thought it would be appropriate to start a series of "community threads" either posted by myself or Luke, to let you all know of the current situation of what is going on with staff and whats happening with things.
Vb4.
Now you may or may not have heard, but YES vB4 is being worked on and is currently in test stages, im not going to put an expected release date as we all know shitstorms come if the target date is not met. All I will say is expect it soon.
Private Premium.
Only the premiums would of seen my thread in their section about this, but yes, Private Premium is getting a re-vamp. How the revamp will be done isn't finalized yet, but you can expect the revamp to make the section more "private" than last time (higher expectation) and contribute based. Meaning we will look at how you contributed in Private Premium and the rest of the forum before you are allowed entrance.
Now onto Rep.
Rep is broken, it is, soften it up how you want, but in the end you will see its broken. Now there will be a poll attached to this thread. VOTE on the poll, this will be a PERMANENT change on Rep.
The options will be:
1. Leave Rep how it is.
2. Get rid of rep totally (disable it and hid the display).
3. Get rid of rep totally (disable it), but keep the display of rep. (bars/stars)
4. Get rid of -Rep/+rep, but Keep Thanks, Nominations, Groans. (make groans worth 3 -rep).
So that is about all thats happening in "staff world" at the moment, you will see another "community update" thread in about a week. Me and Luke will try to push for 1 thread a week to let you all know. Now sometimes there might not be anything to update you all on, but if thats the case, as soon as something comes expect a Community Update thread.

Well 70% of the people in this site have high rep, so we all know that all those people will vote for "leave the rep the way it is". What could be the best for rep is, that you could only give rep people when you press "add reputation" button. That will show the people with real rep/power and that because copied/pasted a thread and got 150 thanks out of it.
So in my opinion. Thanks/nominations/groans = 0 rep
And keep the bars/stars
Like in gamebattles forums, when you see someone with high rep, you say he have contributed a lot because rep you don't get it that easy, rep you will get it if someone reps you with their rep power etc.

d) a girl who gets repped for having tits,
I could go on for ever. Its not worth having rep.

Looks like rep is going to stay the same. :p I don't understand why so lot of you are so butthurt about rep. If you don't like rep, then ignore it and don't use the feature. Problem solved.
I don't know about vb4, though. I like it the way it is now. Vb4 looks and seems too stupid in my eyes. There are some pros to it, I guess.
Easy fix for private premium, quit accepting idiots and denying real contributors.
