Reputation Awareness/Evaluation Month

[TheSlyMoogle]

I would like it if Rep was changed to "Gold Coins" in honor of our good friend, and italian plumber Mario.

It would also be cool if everytime you gave someone +rep you heard "Ching" like when Mario collects a coin. HOORAY!

I'm just being stupid now.

That's actually not a bad idea.

Any other opinions? Or does this one not matter much?

I hate the reputation system. It's worthless. I've elaborated on that several times and I don't feel I need to do it again. Aside from that, I agree with Xantar.

I would like to comment on the access to the Black Project forum. I've been with NDolphin/NDose/GT longer than most, as long as some, and not as long as a small few. And to have a flawed reputation system decide who has access to a forum is perhaps the single most ignorant thing done in all the time I've been with this website. And to me it's a Oxi Moron, because I hate 'Elite Only' forums. It only devides the members of the forums further from each other. But just because I hate it, doesn't mean I don't want access to it. I'll probably never post in there, and yet I'm frustrated by that fact that I couldn't.

Some of you could say "you're only 100 points from having access so quit your whining." But I don't feel I should have to. It's a matter of principle. And one that I feel has been overlooked.

But if everyone can access it, whats stopping people from being complete asses?

Obviously, if you want to post in the Black Project, you need shiney green pips...and obviously to get those shiney green pips you cant be an ass to people and mouth people off.

Benefits keep people acting sane.

You were right on the edge so I pushed you over. It should update your access shortly.

If we implement a new doubloon system, we'll probably have an option to buy access there as well.

I've been around almost as long as you have at the above mentioned forums and have yet to access the oh-so-elusive "Black Project". I remember that I was close one time. Indeed I was, but then we tanked the DBLN system and in came reputation. I remain to this day, after being associated with these people for upwards of 5 years just out of reach of the inner circle.

Come to think of it, this reminds me a lot of my real social life as well. Interesting...

You're right, it is nothing. A giant, bottomless expanse of nothingness from which there can be no escape.
