In an effort to try and weed out all the people that come here just to make fun of others, or those that are leaving hurtful remarks on peoples mods / profile pages, I have come up with a fairly simple system to try and counter-act this problem. The solution (for now) is a User Score for all members. When you join (and all current members), you will begin with a 100% (5 stars). This is as good as it gets. Right now the only restriction I have in place is that once you fall below 60% you will loose the right to post comments on peoples mods and in their profile pages. Here's the run down:

For every mod comment, journal comment, and forum post, you will receive +1% User Score. For every comment that is removed by the owner of the mod / profile, a moderator, or myself you will receive -10%. So 5 rude remarks and you will loose all mod / profile commenting abilities until you build your score back up by posting in the forums. Any post in the forum that is delete, you will receive -1% (basically equaling out the +1% you would have received for posting it).

To delete a comment as a rude comment, you simply click on the "rude" link in the comment that's offensive. Here's what to look for:


    


In all of the profile pages, I have added an additional area on the left side that contains the users User Score. This is shown with a graphic and with a percentage. 90%+ is 5 stars, 80%+ is 4, 70%+ is 3, 60%+ is 2,  30%+ is 1, and anything less than 30% is 0.



So... hopefully this will help weed out all the morons that keep posting crap everywhere and are really just wasting peoples time.

If you have and comments / suggestions, I'd love to hear them!

sounds like a funtional approach.

Haha@hellvis.

Brilliant idea Adam.

Though, I deleted a comment from a mod last week cause it was double posted..maybe I should stop that because people will get bad scores. Hehe.

Thankyou Adam =]

P.S With all the comments I've left people, I'll prolly be -30% in no time! Hahaha. Oh shit *hides*

Clever stuff man, sad fuckers who leave irritatin comments really fuk me off

I'm too stoned for all these instructions.

Great idea!!! Just to check, would deleting a comment as the non-rude option avoid losing them 10%.

i think this is such a great idea. maybe now all the sad, pathetic peeps out there who think its funny to leave such comments on peoples profiles will think twice before clickin that mouse button!!

I liiiike

hah! ... oh my not-my god. it has begun ...

great idea i like it
