It's off, chompy doesn't like it, and no, it's not coming back.

rep system serves no purpose other than a feedback mechanism.

If reputation were reinstated, it would be on a strictly comments-only basis. (i.e. all "points" nulled) but if people want to say thanks, they can just bump the thread or pm their thanks.

reputation is too easily abused to fuel power-struggles and pissing-contests.

what a pity... I really loved the system of reputation points... :(

Well, there is nothing else than I can do... I will NOT insist about this subject: I don't want to happen in here what happened already with me in that "other" forum...

I will forget about that. I won't insist about this subject.

I am sorry to be asked about it. I don't want to create any controversy or polemic.

sorry.

You have nothing to be sorry about.

Anyway...reputation system is kinda dull after a while, and if a forum gets going with a reputation system, it's hard to take it away. it becomes part of it. I'd prefer to avoid it at this early stage.

Yeah. Cut short the testosterone to avoid e-penoritis.
