I agree with the rep. Idea. But I disagre on the negative reputation. I think both positive and negative need to be added.
Would you mind explaining to me why we need to add quantifiable positivity and negativity into the RuneRebels equation? Not trying to be a dick, genuinely asking for a different perspective on the subject. This forum is already positive as fuck, everyone is friendly and for the most part respectful. It's a genuine community. In its current form, if you disagree with someone, you either reply to their post and explain why, or you don't say anything at all. For example, I disagree with you on this subject and I am coherently replying why. If we had an upvote/downvote system, I probably would have downvoted you without any clarification just for the convenience of saying "I disagree" without having to actually put any effort into it. Adding a 'faceless disagreement button' will ultimately lower the forum's sense of community as it doesn't promote discussion, it promotes strictly picking a side and not allowing any in between. I don't see the point of upvotes either as they create a meaningless circlejerk of people patting each other on the back for no reason other than self gratification. If people agree with you, they should say so and have an open discussion about it
However, since we don't have an upvote/downvote system to get into a pissing contest about, I am willing to hear why you disagree and explain to me what benefit of this sort of system would have to RuneRebels.
