Reputation System Implemented

Lakers Forum » Lakers Topbuzz Announcements

Hey guys I've added a reputation system to the forums. You'll notice it as these gold star(s) right above your online status. Basically it's used to give props to others who you think have made a good post. A big star(s) means lots of reputation- you can mouse over the gold star(s) to see the exact rep score. To give some one a rep point you simply click on the plus/minus icon to the right of the stars. Note that the rep point you give out will be subtracted from your total. You can earn rep by posting (25 posts = 1 point) and simply by longevity (1 point for every 60 days).

Hope you guys have fun with this- please let me know if you notice any problems!

Nope- the other star system is still there and is based purely on # of posts. I think you're the only one with 5-stars and the only one with that big a** gold star for reputation Smile.

So you're almost there. BTW thanks for the rep- a bit too generous I may add. Remeber the reps you give away get subtracted from your rep. Same thing Bynumite_17- you guys gave me too many reps- I'll take one from each of you and rep you guys back the rest Smile.

Dave, I just clicked the plus sign next to the two stars under your latest post and it said: Wrong check code! Do not try to fool Reputation System. One more try and your reputation will be -500!

Also when i click "smiles" it says hackingsttempt1

What in the world- I'll look into those problems- thanks Harry. I had fixed that "hackingattempt1" error in the past but after upgrading the forum it overwrote my fix.

lol, thanx

Repped (+1)

Okay fixed the smilies problems but couldn't duplicate that "Wrong check code" error. Thanks again Harry for letting me know- repped. If anyone else get that error please let me know!

Okie Dokie Will Do!

Yeah I had that same hacking attempt issue yesterday. So do you get more rep points by the # of posts you have or...?

You get more rep points by posting (25 posts = 1 point) and simply by longevity (1 point for every 60 days), and of course by other people giving you points.

can you add more stars after 2500 posts? like hall of famer, or G.O.A.T. or verteran or jersey in the rafters....just a suggestion. cuz maybe thats why lakers fan ryan doesnt post much. he's already maxed out on stars. thanks either way.

Sure- I went ahead and modified the ranks- here's how it looks now:

Idk CHARGE was around while you weren't and left around the time you came back...you just missed him. I think he is finishing up school....he should be back soon

I would if I knew how. Wink I need to get BBallin back on here to make us all some sigs

sigs are stupid you dont need that kid to do it.

oh also why do ou have a football player on your sig

just to make things funner in this site..

well said NN24

so are you gonna do my rule Dave?

Do you mean the current ranking system? Nope it's going to stay the way it is for now.

its good the way it is dave. no changes necessary.

Dave, what can we say, if we disagree with you, you will censor what we post and BAN us from the forum. Of course, we have to agree with your way, this forum is like the ****, you accept it or you are gased in the chamber. If I had a forum, I would celebrate different views, this is where your forum flourishes, you want puppets or you want those that are not afraid to express themselves honestly, your censoring is NOT american!!!!!!!

I only delete junk- attacks against other fellow members and duplicate posts/topics. And you've been spewing out a lot of junk....

Dave, there is a lot of quality post I have been providing and I have not seen you comment on one of them. Now if I go to another forum and discuss that the site administrator did not comment positive on ONE of my post, it will be embarassing, try to be objective and look for the positives instead of the few post you HATE.

I wish I have time to read all the posts and respond to them. There are so many great members. My main responsibility here is to provide a friendly and stimulating medium for discussing the Lakers, and I refuse to let a few bad apples ruin things for everybody. A lot of time I miss junk unless thankfully I'm alerted of them by fellow members (thanks guys!)

Yes, but Dave, have you listened to ONE of my complaints about EVIL or BAD posters, I have thick skin, I don't complain like the little girls that complain to you. When you get a complaint from the little girls, look at who started the incident. It is like in the NBA when they call a technical foul on the person throwing the blow. More times than not, it is the other person that caused the fraction in the first place. So look at the whole picture, not only what the little girls complain to you about. Even in the forum, you have Kobes and Ron Artests posters, and I'm treated like a Ron Artest or Kobe, you seem to love the Luke Walton posters and Lamar Odom posters of the world. Think about Dave not right now, take 24 hours and you will say, wow, yes RC is right in the NBA some players are mistreated or treated differently while the little girl posters get away with things they started in the first place.

RC....Dave is trying to keep Topbuzz a quality site. This site has made its' reputation on quality posting, great members and an excellent managing staff. Dave is doing his best to the right thing, it is not about censoring, it is about cleaning up the wrong stuff that may be said...at the end of the day we all care about the lakers and this site or we would not be a part of this great LTB. You say some stuff that would be cool in a parking lot, but not for this forum...you have some good contributions, but sometimes you go Kobe on us...Dave is just trying to reel you back in before you demand a trade to ClipperTopbuzz...
