Do you think DBZF needs a rep system?

That sounds like the vB rep system which is an extremely complicated piece of coding and the way it is regulated uses an algorithm which can be edited for each board xD Definitely not something which we can set up here.

If people want it we can trial a rep system if we can find it - i'll hunt for a decent one that should fit most of what has been said here. We have had one before, though it was removed as it slowed the board too much.

Also, Rogue had been derepped ;)

And I might increase warnings to people who misuse the system.

Not to mention what i said puts all kinds of rep abuse out of business.

like tim said, its tough considering the zeta boards arent all that, but my car club is owned by <link>...now.

befoe it was privately owned. Im not sure what boards they were using. But the rep system is efficient.

anyone can take a look at my example, its on <link>

you can create a fake account and just lurk. You'll get the full scope.

Don't need external promotions, edited them out.

You can screenshot parts to prove a point if you wish but I think a lot of people already know how a rep system works and the last time we had on on DBZF, it did allow us to remove abusive rep points, so that isn't the problem.

external promotions? hardly, its a car club.

only an example. hardly think most people will leave dbzf for a something they dont dabble in.

Plenty of sites have good repping systems, but this is the best IVE seen so far.

Unless they are a ZetaBoards based forum, I don't think it would help too much.

I've been looking into one for here. Just waiting for some coding to finish off then i'll test it out first.

So if all goes well we may have one in a while :3

To put it plainly, no. I've been on too many forums where the rep system is abused and is instead used as a 'popularity meter'.
However, if you guys think you can prevent that from happening...

Doesn't work that way, a reputation system is pretty much just a number you get depending on if people give you a positive rep or a negative rep, there wouldn't be titles or ranks from it.

Reputation systems generally are popularity meters, there is no way to moderate that, however the abuse of negative reputations can be moderated.

And I suppose that it would be perfectly reasonable to disable the system at too many signs of abuse.

Would it also be practical to give users the option to turn rep on their profile off? For those that don't actually wish to have it.

I don't think that's a possibility on any system I know of, I don't know what Tim knows about the one he's waiting for or if he knows the coder in anyway to ask.
