It is not public at this time. At some point, if things go right, it sounds like Matty may make it public.

Click the "User CP" link at the top of the page. Your reputation should be listed there.

Ahh... then people will be accountable for what they say. Right on.

thanks man, I've been wondering for a while who'd given me rep points and for what.

Exactly.

I'm not sure if I can make it so we can only give positive rep points, I'll have to look into that, maybe there's a mod I can install

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Well if you can't, you could always leave the negatives and if anyone gets spiteful just give them a friendly warning.

Even though I could see this getting ugly with the select few who have a hot temper...

I can almost guarantee that removing one line of code would do it.

I still think it's un-needed, will be a hassle and abused.
Really, even counting posts means nothing. Our software at boastingrights.com does that too but it's worthless information. Some smart people don't post much and some with limited info post like crazy.

Thanks guys

Very true. I think we talked about it today because it WAS something to talk about.

I don't think it would be at all a hassle. If it's a hassle to you, then don't use it. vBulletin has set it up in a way that discourages abuse.

I can guarantee to you that A LOT of people on here consider the post count a measuring stick. By using rep points, it would discourage that and at the same time encourage responsible posting.

I don't like change either, but I think that this would be a very minor change that may produce positive results.

I know, look at me....I've got about 1,500 posts and I don't know squat. But I love to talk anyways.

You can have my 13 points I have no use for them.

Do what you want. It's your tree I'm just a squirrel trying to get a nut.
