Default Rep system is crap
Glitchless, please fix the forum reputation system. It's really crap.

Ever since Nikita and the 'crappy' Epic Recipe patch showed up, everyone somehow has huge rep now.

Even I somehow have great rep after only a small amount of posts, most of which have been pretty pointless (I must admit I think I have made a few decent suggestions though ). I don't deserve it

Most peeps have rep from flaming each for no reason, while a few people that have ACTUALLY CONTRIBUTED to the game and forum have no rep: how the fook does that work?

Maybe separate 'flaming' rep from 'helpful' rep heh

Just telling it how it is

good point...

+ rep

just kidding, i ignore the rep system just like in all forums. reputation is not something you can measure with bars. but yeah, if they wanted to improve the system a little, increasing the difficulty to get it higher is a start. maybe time could play a factor somehow.

but honestly, if they cared about this forum they would protect it from spammers, delete/move bad threads etc. worrying about rep comes after the forums have a larger community

I'll say it again...

Just like PM's, include a "From" (not optional) in the Rep info. This will help kill all the sensless anonymous rep.

Rep is no big deal really. It means what, exactly? I'd rather see them patch Clan wars.

Well, anyone can be asked to help someone fight an enemy from a clan. Honestly, if XTian even went to war I can't count the number of 70's that would jump at the chance to team with an enemy clan.

YouTube - THE BRIDAL PROCESSION - BURN YOUR FAITH OR SUFFER (LIVE) :P

On a serious note ... if you make a 'visible' religious clan like xtian, that is to be expected. That doesn't mean the system is broken, it means that people that don't share your ideas will make it clear to you by ingame means as soon as you gave them the occasion.

The navy seals in Iraq are not gonna fight in their underpants and with bare hands just cause the iraqi's have worse/no gear, ... that is called war ....
