+ 13 Revised voting system
ad
It needed a change, due to abuse and too much moderation work. So here is what we got:
Different "roles" affect author's karma differently. The higher your role is the more say you have. For instance, GURU's vote will give more karma to comment's author than "LVL1"
These roles give +3
- MOD - "MOD badge" Assigned by us.
- GURU - "GURU badge" Assigned by us.
- PRO - "PROFESSIONAL badge" Assigned by us.
These roles give +2
- EXP - "EXPERT badge" Needs karma +650 or higher
- ADV - "ADVANCED badge" Needs karma +400 or higher
These roles give +1
- LVL3 - "LVL3 badge" Needs karma +200 or higher
- LVL2 - "LVL2 badge" Needs karma +100 or higher
- LVL1 - "LVL1 badge" Needs karma +50 or higher
These roles give 0, but add to thumbs up/down count in comments
- SRC - "SOURCE Representative badge" Assigned by us.
- REG - "Regular user badge" Needs karma +6 or higher.
- BASIC - "Basic user badge" Karma -25 to +5.
- TROLL - "Troll badge" Karma -25 or lower.
- NEW - "NEW badge" Starts with Karma +1.
NEW can not vote anything except if he has advanced to REG within 3 weeks.
We need to make soure he/she is not here just to spam or troll.
Basically what we're trying to do is rank users based on their input and experience, not popularity.
You welcome to vote on comments to show support or approval even if it won't affects karma pts, it might attract attention from users that directly participate in user ranking.
Those that have enough karma to affect karma, I urge you to use the voting buttons responsibly!

So whats a good way to get 10 karma so that I can vote?
1) Don't ask "So whats a good way to get 10 karma so that I can vote?".
2) Not bumping old topics.
I'm seriously considering putting you in negative digits.
You have had 5 hours: Consideration period is now closed.
Pics, reviews, discussions
I thought they removed karma from pictures.
At one point I think they did...now I think there is just the no karma whoring rule
ok sorry i readed all rules again fail question !! Ill just wait for trust
Won't get it waiting. Must participate and earn karma.
How i can rate a source because he deserve it so good service!!
Just a quick one. When the new rating system was rolled out I did notice one member gaind 100 rep points over night. I am curious as to why this may have happened.
Has the source ranking and voting stars been affected? Just asking cos I noticed my score went down but nobody down voted me any more than they had when the score was higher.
No problem for me. As long as i keep finding good sources and info from the"high karma"peeps,i can be a 4 for ever!!!!!
bosoxboyidk i been here a while do decent postings and i am still
+6
this seems like a really good way of doing it, keeps shit in line. Besides are we really here for popularity, or are we here to learn? Dont worry about if you dont have enough points to give someone points. You can still thumbs up them to let them know what they said was helpful, which is really why you should be doing it anyways.
Nasty81NateQuestion: So I just clicked "thumbs up" on a review that I thought was helpful, refreshed the page and his points total was still the same. When do the actual points get added on or show up on the account for the person I give a "thumbs up?"
your "role" wasn't updated yet, because you haven't received any votes since the update.
Well i fixed that by upvoting you, and you should be gtg
Nasty81NateAww...Gotya bro, I guess all the changes are hard to keep track off, and apparently I can't read big red letters either. Thx BFG
Eric090585Hey u asked my next question too lol i did the samr shit..gave sommeone a thumbs up and clicked refresh...and nothiny happened...sad story lol
So whos' dick do I need to suck in order to get one of the assigned badges, lol?
You forgot the "No Homo",................wait ???, ....that pretty much was "Homo".
Bro, there is no way you can mask a phrase like that with "no homo", lol...
Eric090585what about a MOD who is in the ADV category? will they give +2 or +3? or will it end up being +5? serious question..not being a douche lol
adv+mod = +3, same goes for all categories only the highest role counts
yo, im really liking the "troll" badge. its going to be funny reading a guy cry and moan about a source while reading their troll badge. should make for good entertainment.
Looks like a plan big man. You went further than I thought. Then I should be starting to expect that here by now. Fantastic job
I don't understand the new system. I got 2 thumbs up and 0 added points?
it depends on who voted you
So, basically there is no point in voting comments up or down because I have no effect on their points.
with the new update, you need at least 50pts for LVL1 so you can give actual pts.
Anonwell if you are doing it solely for points purposes then NO there is no point... give thm thumbs up or down because they deserve it for making a good comment nd contribution. .. enough thums attracts those of us who are able to give points..
Ya I voted up on a cpl ppl and it didn't do anything...
sounds good
"TROLL Badge" that's funny how about "Whale shit Badge"
I love this site...Does that help me??? oh wait "NO Homo"
This is good
Level-1 in da house! Awesome
No SOURCE tags ???...............No Homo.
haha so im rocking a reg. does that make me mysterious. dont matter i like it anyway.
When this all came about I asked myself how can they possibly fix this and make it better? Well ya'all did it! This place just keeps on getting better! Great Job!
This could be interesting? :-)
Change is good. Gotta evolve.
well thought out,i like it a lot.........
Sweetness!
Whoa! I guess I lost MOD priveledges!
sweetness there back
AnonWithout votes for "lol" and "HOMO" I'll be stuck at 367 for the rest of my life.
Mine says REG also. Did you miss a level in the description, between "Basic" and "LVL1"?
Anoni thi8nk i like it better the way it was before
I'm noticing people with 10+ points have "REG" badge. Is it supposed to say "REG" above where it says "Basic?"
Nice, It looks cleaner, sharper.
I was so close to lvl 1.
If only I was shorter, younger, richer, thinner, more active.....
Oh well, additional motivation. Keep learning, interacting, GROWING!!!!!!
Thanks BFG and all MODs for making Eroids available!
i like the new update
