I will be happy when you remove "his", there is lots of ladies here and it can cause gender confusion.

Let's open Pandora's Box.........

Wasn't there something about goat fucking a couple years back?

Add more medals instead of them maxing out at around 500 points, that's way to quick. Make them different colors that change up to like 100,000. That ought to last awhile.

Also increase red splat max to 10, change bottom level to "eats own turds".

Not bad except for the last one. Not a single person with high rep wants to be President of anything except maybe Berkshire Hathaway.

Have no idea if this is an option within the VBulletin software, I believe the "Rep Power" number should be a combination of Rep points and number of posts that it took to earn that number.
For example...
2500 rep points/4000 postsx1000 = Rep Power 625.
3000 rep points/7500 posts x 1000 = Rep Power 400.
Just sayin, I think a truer reputation is gained this way...

I could see how combining points and posts could be easily abused.

There is, currently a small bonus for post count. One former member who shall remain nameless (her initials were TDM) would switch between a red splat and +40, sometimes twice a day.

I think for about a day.

 

[Ernie S.]

I think it was only applied to a few of a former ADMIN's "favorites".

Yeah, I think you are right. I can't remember who it they were though.

 

[Luissa]

I think they fucked with Agna like that too.

 

[Ernie S.]

While we are talking about software tweaks, I'm thinking that there should be a banned list with length of ban and maybe even the infraction that warranted the ban.

It's impossible to comply with rules against talking about the banned unless you know who's banned. The pink font helped, but there are some of us that use quotes of other members in our signatures and need a way of checking if we're still legal.

 

[Ernie S.]

As I remember, only people with 4 splats had that comment, so it had to be targeted at someone specifically.

Christophera, perhaps?

Seconded.

Creative Dreams had the "sucks off goats" comment with one red splat & 11 pips.

Not anymore than the current system.
Not saying who of course, but I have declined two "Rep circles" since I have been here.
Those doing this know who they are.

Can't neg rep and their threads are completely hidden as well as their posts.
