Should the 'rep' system be removed?

[cuntnugg3t]

In your opinion should the whole rep system be removed?

There's been a lot of discussion on this recently and I'd like to see what you guys think. This is an anonymous poll.

A rep doesn't mean a thing, in my opinion, i think it's even a nice way to say to someone: "i like you ".
I do think reps shouldn't be used to fight against one another

Greatz

Its come to a point where people upfront ask others to give them a positive rep (as seen in 101), and others start throwing reputation around to get some for themselves. (Im also still triggered because i have negative reps for enforcing forum rules)

Nothing wrong with reps imho.

I believe that the 'reputation' system continues to have some merit -- it allows anyone to make a statement about other people, and give their honest opinion of people.

I can agree that it shouldn't be used to fight others, however, some "negative opinions" are inevitable.

I also agree that there should never be "deals" made revolving around reputations (ie: I'll give you a +1 if you give me a +1).

In the end, I believe that the collective value applied to you, really should only matter to you, and be some sort of a 'sign' whether people think you're a worthy contributor, or something else. If the number starts dropping, probably it's time for some self-reflection.

But it only works as long as people use it as it's intended -- to give honest opinions. So in the end, the collective usefulness of it, is up to us as individuals. Clearly, misuse is possible, but in the end, if you misuse it, that is left for the world to see, and again, I think it will only come back to haunt you in the end.

Well we all know what the rep's do when they are used properly . But on it's best day the good rep's don't compare to the amount of emotional damage a bad rep does. My vote is to close it down to stop the emotional roller coaster ride .

i used to look at the reps to find out what a specific person was like . Sio if i went there and saw a page of red i would leave so it's not fair for peeps to have unfair bad reps.  

I say down with the reps page

I voted 'No' because I think the rep-system gives a good general idea of the user. For example, people with a higher reputation will most likely have been quite active and overall quite nice. And of course, a negative rep isn't nice, but should the person who sees a neg rep in someones reputation really be influenced that badly? Unless the neg rep has a valid cause, I'd rather take it with a pinch of salt, for it could be that the person who gave it is being a jerk

hey psst i want 101 reps can you give me 11 reps really quickly? @Voakie

[Lucyfer]

The true rep can't be measured. You make your rep with your posts and what you write.
I am generally against measuring poeple basing on all kind of statistics.

But I really don't mind it the way it is now. If some poeple like it and enjoy, let it stay.
