Should the reputation system be abolished?

Moonboot's wish is my command. Though I was also hoping to win a Mini Cooper for starting the n[sup]th[/sup] thread on the same topic...

So: public poll for "full transparency" and easy to understand choices and only one choice per member.

Away you go...

all hail the grampus!

If you want an accurate poll you must make it anonymous. You don't get Gallup releasing lists of who voted Conservative or Labour at an election.

i think this has too few options on it. There should be system, type of system, or no system at all, IMO.

flippineck, do a new poll then. grampus' poll refers to the present system and should give a clear idea of what TTers think of it.

I think its only purp is to get more clicks for advertisers.

I don't mind the poll being public - I don't see that it would influence many decisions. I also think 3 options is plenty.

You can please some of Toytown all of the time.
You can please all of Toytown some of the time.
But you can't please all of Toytown all of the time.

Two out of three of those statements are correct. Which according to Meat Loaf's Law of Not Badness, is an acceptible ratio...

Edit: hey, who negged me?! Remember, a neg for grampus is a neg for Meat Loaf! For shame!

Only if you can control one person one vote. The only way it can be accurate on TT is to not make it anonymous.

No, a 4th option would be good. Something like "Ideally, I'd like to spend my time rubbing oil onto full, rounded breasts, but as I can't at present, I shall give negative points to whiny neurotics, knowing how that winds them up with humorous results".

Bit of a mouthful, I grant you.

Why is EVERY post marked down????

I haven't negged anyone, I pozzed Rainking though cuz his post made me chuckle.

i can't do a poll, i'm not a supporter.

Jaysus.

Your whining is really grating this morning.

It had been suggested that a poll be created. So, why did you not create one?

Tell you what: Do us a favour and go and make yet another one with all the questions you desire and then just

Then pay €10 and become a supporter. You have been a member for long enough. How about giving something back instead of griping.

i'm not fucking whining, i'm just making a fucking suggestion. and if you read my earlier post you will see I cannot. what is the problem with making a fucking suggestion orla? Am i not allowed do that in your world??

no, you shut the fuck up. i have done nothing but make points and arguments today and then you come to me and be fucking abrasive? i don't know who the fuck you think you are but you can shut the fuck up.

this is fucking uncalled for. i have just been making points here, and i am being told to shut the fuck up?
