reputations

[BavarianAudi]

why dont u guys make it so you can see who sent u the rep? so we can avoid reps with comments like this

"what a fuckin idiot! how about I post a picture of my dick and you post a picture of your mouth and go to town you piece of shit!"

from people who think they're tough guys because they can give reps anonymously.

[Admin]

The Rep System has been set to private to eliminate free-for-all retaliation. When the system is abused and used to Troll/Flame (as it was in this case) then it should be reported directly to a Mod or Admin or by using the Feedback Forum as you did here. The user that issued the above Rep comment has been dealt with accordingly.

[BavarianAudi]

thank you for taking care of the problem. i appreciate it.

[cj101]

blow me...crybaby, it didn't call for termination of my account. might as well ip ban me. :D later audizine.

[cj101]

I don't wanna be all secretive like bananaboy so ehh ip ban me, audizine was too addicting :D bye anthony.

[Anthony]

Wow, very mature.

You had received two Warnings and three previous Infractions. This last offense made it your fourth and final, meaning a permanent account ban. It can hardly be a surprise.

[BavarianAudi]

LOL, sorry anthony if i caused any trouble (didnt want to cause trouble). i dont get butt hurt about stupid stuff but it pisses me off when people think they are tough guys on the internet. once again i apologize if i have caused any trouble.

[Anthony]

No worries, you didn't cause any trouble. Hell you didn't even know who it was, you were simply reporting an abuse of the system and the breaking of the Audizine rules and guidelines. You just happened to be a part of it.

[Phrost]

So Anthony... I don't feel any of the negative rep I have is "abuse" or anything (although mostly uncalled for), but you can remove it anyway if you want

[Jung]

Yeah, I got negative repped in a thread that was nearly a month old for a completely non controversial post and i quote ":) does this affect your rep or am i just wasting my time?"
that was yesterday. Then a positive rep for "thanks for the foreshadowing" or something, and then a negative rep for "don't be a nancy about negative rep". It's just annoying when people abuse it and you have a "skidding by" reputation.

But yours is "average" at the moment. Sure there will be immature people that don't use it as intended, but if you're an active contributing and helpful member of the community, then the positives should outweigh the negatives.

[Phrost]

Anthony, I'll +rep you if you delete one of my negs

[Anthony]

I don't need the rep, but I do appreciate the try.

[Phrost]

I don't need the rep, but I do appreciate the try.

check neg then

[CARTEL]

Yeah, I'm sorta over the whole negative rep thing... People loooove to talk shit when they are anonymous. I've even called a few people out on it lately with no response.

But, what do you expect when you write something like "die hippy"

I guess I'll have to stop being a hypocrite and leaving my name with negative reps.

[Phrost]

I sign my name with every rep (I think I've only given one neg rep so far) but you kind of have to expect getting it back if you neg someone.

I really don't care if people neg me though. If I want to sell a big ticket item when I have a mediocre reputation, I'll just link them to one of my threads where I've sold $1,000+ in small mods or $2,000 sets of wheels with no problems. That's what real reputation is

Don't get me wrong, this rep system is fun and everything but it's more of a popularity contest.

[CARTEL]

Yeah, I agree... Political affiliation shouldn't equal what your contribution level to AZ is.. haha.

[ILoveT]

this rep system is fun and everything but it's more of a popularity contest.

+1

[italian a4 1032]

if you rep someone does that just give them one rep?

[Phrost]

No. The more rep you have, the more weight your repping ability will have

Admin +repping me will give me a lot more points than I would get if you +repped me.

[italian a4 1032]

o thanks cause it said i have 11 reps and i had no idea how i got them

[Phrost]

Everyone starts with a little bit

[Admin]

That is correct. Everyone starts with 10 points. After that, they're yours to gain or lose.

[ProOnThaSnow]

Hmm, so I must be doing something right around here... I don't even know who's repped me half the time (unless they say they have), and I don't think I've been neg repped... yet.

[Phrost]

and I don't think I've been neg repped... yet.

Check neg

[Tiesto]

"read the article dumbass. in order for it to be able to race it MUST be rwd u dumb ignorant shit."

Any chance you could do something about this one Admin? Appreciate it.


Also, maybe we could have a sticky thread in this forum to report Rep abuse?

[///M3 TO S4]

Yeah, I got 2 negs: One from spoolinggt2871 who has been banned 3 times. The other was a post pictures of your dog thread and I posted a picture of me and my dog, and some guy neg repped me and said "you look like a cock". Anyway you guys can please take care of those. Thanks.

[Phrost]

I have at least 5+ negs. But lets face it, the people who run around and -rep people are either very new, or have little/no rep. Their -rep has little effect on yours, so don't worry too much about it people

Actually it is affecting us, ///M3 TO S4 and I are now "Skidding by" which means we can no longer give out rep.

[Phrost]

Yeah but it all will equal out over time, the whole rep this is still new and most users don't even use it yet. Mods should be able to fix any "rep abuse" if you let them know too

[dougyfresh]

I feel the REP system should be used for technical contributions to our vehicle's forums. Not the BS that is going on in GCC.

Individuals could have a couple hundred positive reps and not even get out of GCC and provide any detailed, technical and accurate information to the platform that they drive (or other vehicle platforms for that matter).

[Admin]

Please be aware that we are working on a solution to this problem.

[Phrost]

Please be aware that we are working on a solution to this problem.

I'm excited

Have two rep bars... One "official reputation" for technical posts, one "popularity" for GCC posts or something. Not that we need rep at all or anything, but if we have it should be fixed

We won't have a "popularity bar", sorry.

[Phrost]

Why not, then all the mods can start their "popular" bar off at like 20 bars because mods = gods

[CARTEL]

I got some rep for posting a picture of an iceberg that looked like a penis. If that's not contributing to the community I don't know what is.

[Phrost]

I'll rep you if you post the icepenis in this thread tonight
