I think it would be very good to have a Reputation system, so if we help someone, they can give us Plus Reputation. and if we Spam, do things wrong, we get given Negative Reputation.
It has been brought up multiple times and is in our [Official] Forum upgrade suggestions thread, you can see some of the responses in the first few pages.
All in all, it has both it's positive and negative sides.
Well, it would be easier to see the responses in a seperate thread. But ofcourse, it would have Positive and Negative sides, thats why you would limit it to...

Then, it would make it less Spammable, and you don't get random noobs doing it.
Lets also not forget the fact that this forum is over a year old and doesn't even have a "posts by user" list thingy and other simple features. Even if we decided that a reputation system would be a good idea, it wouldn't be implemented for quite a while.

So....Almost everybody on the website? :D
This forum software is old. Unfortunately, that's just the way it is. We are making progress, and you see that here. I do agree with Jademus though. Our community is fairly small, and as such, almost everybody knows exactly who everybody else is, and how they behave.

I hate the idea of reputation systems in forums. It just amounts to that everyone that gives criticism on a map gets downrated.

That sucks, The Hive Workshop did it In a very fast time. :P
I'm all for it. Hopefully one day they'll implement it, but as Maity said could be quite a while :p
Quantified reputation is silly; active participants in the community know the reputations of one another well enough without such things.
