We have less than 7 guys since then that are even showing a single gold bar..
There is something flawed in that...

Now this thread is a poll to see what reputation system YOU prefer, the current, the one we have now, etc. etc.
Please keep in mind that this is just a general consensus to see what you all prefer, and if one 'wins' the poll, that doesn't mean that system is being enacted. We're just looking for opinions.
Personally, I believe the best reputation system to be the one that was here when I joined - Not regulated at all. No +/- cap truly let members get what they deserve out of their hard work or bad posts. The more effort you put into things, the more effort you'd get out of them. It promoted activity in my eyes, and that is how I would want it to be now. Rep boosters or people who exploit and abuse it would have a more harsh punishment.

It was the best system, fags got no rep or rep taken from them very easily. the highest rep members (DEREK, Dopey and so on) gave rep when they felt it was needed.
Rep prestiges are the biggest load of shit iv seen introduced to the site (this is an opinion thread and thats mine) I hate them. I liked the stars, and the way they were set out, i was aiming for a gold before the site changed the rep system and i probably would of got one if i still went for it, but i just didnt bother cause of rep prestiges and the stars markers were lowered so i have one now anyway.
Go back to the classic system. let the bitched bitch and the haters hate, why would we care what they think anyway?

Personally, I think "reputation points" itself is a little ridiculous, as it ultimately just makes people angry (especially when they are given negative reputation points). Furthermore, reputation points do not necessarily prove that a member is of high or low integrity - and it doesn't always accurately represent the actual reputation of a user (as perceived by other users).
I would finish by saying that uncapped reputation only makes the system more ridiculous, and that if reputation truly is a necessity, it should remain capped.
