... a great way to judge a persons internet persona.

I disagree. There were/are quite a few disrespectful passive-aggressive types that would neg good people just for disagreeing with them. And there were straight JACKASSES with tons of + reps. Anyways, if you have intelligent, helpful things to say and share, your rep will be known. If you are unhelpful and a troll, your rep will be known. Those bars, while pretty, change nothing. :tiphat:

I liked the reps thing, although it wasn't a great indicator of the credibility of the poster, it was always nice to be able to receive and give positive rep.

I think voting a post up or down was much more useful, as it allowed a sort of "Wisdom of Crowds" quality control. The rep system stifled it a bit though as voting a post down gave negative rep and probably put people off doing it.

I like the idea of everyone being encouraged to vote posts up or down so that anyone reading a thread would have a good idea of the views of everyone else reading the thread. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I'm too stoned to type it all again.

A decent compromise between having a rep option and having none would to just have a k+ option as many members have suggested in the past.

Get rid of the helpful post thing and replace it with a k+ button and the option to leave a message.

That way everybody is happy, except for the trolls and malcontents who dish out bad rep and are probably the reason why the rep thingy was disabled to begin with.

Might as well take away our names and avatars too and just give us all a number, how the hell are we going to know who is reputable or not?

I heard they are going to hand out arm bands to the reputable members to differentiate. does anyone get that? haha Im too high to make jokes

Well ...

I am an Organic Soil guy so if anyone cares to visit Organic Soil forum I and the Team Organic Soil will try and assist ya.

If anyone realy wants to know how I grow just visit my photos..

Now to search this site best use Google and put in "Search Term" + International Cannagraphic" that works better than the search function here for most things.

So lets forget the Rep. It was lame to start with!

I'm a cool Cat and know soil really well so hey.. No biggie for me.. Some graphics didn't make me what I am I did!

I think CM was saying that being able to only give positive rep/K+ would be good (no negrep anymore). But maybe I got that wrong.

People judge the competence of others based on the rep status and green bars?
LOL

and to think, all this time I have been doing it by evaluating how one expresses themselves, their competency, ability to take criticism, and most of all RESULTS.

Then I add a pinch of salt and go on my merry. To each is own
