Re: Doubloon system explained
Where do you get the impression that I think it's a big deal or will harm the forums or anything? All I've said is that I think the doubloon/reputation system is pretty silly and worthless. I always have, even back when I was a moderator. It's not as if I think that the forums will blow up as a result, but this is, after all, the third time Neo and company have put a new coat of paint on the system and tried to market it to us. The system is fundamentally still the same, so eventually people are still not going to care about it. I don't see why they insist on wasting their time, but it's not my call to make.
If seeing a criticism from me disturbs you so much, then wait for the staff to make some kind of useful and constructive decision (not that I really think they need to since the forums are more or less doing fine and don't need ot be messed with). Then you'll see me joining along with everybody else to sing their praises. Until then, don't think that me criticizing the reputation system is anything new. I've been doing it for years.
