    I think it's been around a while now - but I agree it should be more than +1.

    Actually, I'd suggest the following scheme:
    • +2 for "Ceroc / dance technical discussions"
    • -1 for "Chit Chat"
    • -1 for "Social events"
    • -2 for "Fun and Games"
    • -4 for "Take it outside"


    But of course that just reflects my biases (I'd also have "-250 for 'who's going where' polls" )

    By all means, let's have some proper incentives and dis-incentives, but this "-1" thing doesn't do much...

    Well, presumably to stop people getting such high rep scores.

    Of course, unless the new rep point levels can be applied retrospectively to all the rep previously given, it (IMHO) makes the rep system even more worthless that it was previously (or the rep system reset with the new power system!).

    As those with a high score will still have their scores, and future awards of rep will not be worth as much. So people posting rep-worthy comments will now not climb the ladder to catch up with the people ahead of them.

    Good job that no-one actually takes the rep system to actually be worth anything, right?

    Heh. A negative rep power could be pretty amusing... people lose rep because you liked their posts
