Me and LOD had this Idea, that you should be able to rep someone at their profile.:lol:

What do you think?

Not just at their profile, but also in PM's.

In private messages, when someone sends you one their details still show. Their location .etc. But there is no rep giving option there.

The reputation is something that someones gets because their post gave help to someone/contributed to the whole forum/gave a solution to a problem/stuff like that in a post. The fact that is has become so popular that everyone gives whenever he or she likes it/thinks its appropriate, whether or not that post (the one which got reped) did anything of the things I mentioned (for example, the post could have got reped because the "giver" thought that it was funny/interesting/etc) or things similar to them in any case does not mean that reputation was created to be used that way.

Its primary use is awarding posts who helped lots of people (if not all) in the forum, this is why when someone has lots of rep, you can see stuff like "he is in a distinctive road" when you click his rep boxes, to see that he is loved because of his helpfulness.

Personal things like a private message or less personal things (but still personal) like the visitor messages (which are like chatting in most cases) do not contribute to the forum in any way. And if you still have to rep someone for something he told you in a message you can always find a post to rep him or her, it isn't not such a big deal in the end^^

i like the idea saves confusion over someone being repped on a random post because they said something smart in a profile. i think it wold be good in profiles ,but as a newb i really dunno

i think maybe you should have two rep things. like, one makes your rep go up if repped in threads. and the other is in profiles. and it is at zero for all until someone is repped in the profiles. so profile rep and thread rep are separate maybe. just an idea. sorry if it sucks. and like, if you get enough rep points on your profile, something nifty happens in ya profile. like, you get something cool or something as a feature.

^that is what I said LOD.:p

Nice one one YOUR idea.:lol:

You're like a little kid who won't admit they are wrong :p So now you resort to spamming. Shame on you Black Angel, I thought you were more mature :p :p

I'm still in favour of the idea. I mean, I wish rep would actually do something.

^ No it wasn't BA, chill :D

To me knowledge, rep doesn't do much. It doesn't do anything exciting anyway :lol:

I do like having allot of it though.

I have a question about the rep bars, what is the point?

They are supposed to represent how popular you are but everybody has the same amount(10 bars).
