I have just added reputation to a member who has disabled the reputation system. What's the point? Is it a bug or a feature?
I think the reputation icon should be removed from members who opted out. |
It only disables the rep from being shown.

I had 186 thanks and but it never meant that I was extremely technically sound ! I earned those thanks by trying to point the OP in some right direction ! And times when I was wrong in the C/C++ programming section, the other person corrected me in his post and I immediately followed up with an apology note ! Now that's up to you, i.e. how honest you are, if you realize that the other person is correct, post up and tell the OP to follow his advise !! Opting out is not the solution, being honest IS ! |

BTW: Thanks ;) |
Sorry if I've missed it in this thread, but is there a mechanism so that postings in General aren't allowed to affect reputation, much like posting in General doesn't apply to post count? I would really hate to see anyone's reputation altered (in either direction) because of a political discussion or position.

BUT Can a click by them on the "helpful posting" and thus increasing the reputation by 1 point, be allowed ? I am feeling concerned because I usually help the actual newbie's by pointing them to some known relevant links, and most of the time the newbies find them helpful and click yes on those posts ! And Senior members may be find those "helpful links" or those "helpful pointers" to be too trivial and thus not bother to click a "yes" ! As EricTra said in a previous post that if he finds an answer to be technically very sound then he'll consider clicking a "yes" ! and thus a trivial help to the newbie for his problem may not seem to him as a technically very sound answer even though it has helped the newbie ! I can give examples of those kind of threads, if some one wants ! |

Member groups are different from titles. "New Member" defines a person who has joined and never posted. "Member" indicates that the person has at least one post. The "Newbie", "Member", "Guru" etc are all titles and differ from member groups.

I still don't get it.

EDIT: Ah... Now it does work. Could it be that one needs to make a new post after this was introduced? |
