Hi all,
some days before, I was trying to introduce one karma ratings here.
But due to some coding problem, it was not working fine..
But at that time, I got some gud responses to introduce some thing like that!
Here it is friends!!
One new Reputation Points system!!
You can get reputation points by posting here,
and you can give reputation points to members around here for nice posts,
and also, u will get some bonus reputation points in each and every months!
You can even give some votes to users for gud posts!!
Here is the more details about reputation points system!!
1. INTRODUCTION
First of all what is this?
This is a mod for phpbb forum which gives the ability to your users to give reputations (or "thank you"s) to each others. This will works simple. If you want to thank someone for a post you can do this in two clicks. If you want to tell someone that he is a bad user with a bad behavior you can do this in two clicks as well. And new users on your forum will know who is a good reputated user, whose words are weighing something, and who is a bad user, whose words and deeds are not recommended to you by the others.
2. SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF THE SYSTEM
Jane has a reputation of 10. Mike — 50. If Jane gives Mike 5 points, Mike will get 5 points. If Mike gives Jane 5 points, Jane will get 5.2 (Mike is more reputated so his givings have more power). But the bottom line of the whole is that each time you give, each time you lose. You lose the same amount as you give (without adding your power). So this is the hard earning reputation system. You can't give reputation if you have -10 points (of course) or less than 1.
If Jane wants to give Mike negative reputation (for example -5), -5 points will be subtracted from Mike's reputation. But if Mike wants to give Jane negative reputation (for example -5), -5.2 points will be subtracted from Mike's reputation (again, more power from more reputated user). And again when you give, you lose.
3. ADVANCED EXPLANATION
For those who wants to know exactly how this system works i'll explain it more deeply. We have 5 stars:
one for the negative reputation:
(it doesn't matter how much you have negative reputation, as soon as you move subzero you'll get this red star). Default values are:
200
100
50
10
1
And we have multiplication constants assigned to each medal:
1.4
1.3
1.2
1.1
1
So, for example, if you have the 3rd medal (points > 50) your constant will be 1.2. Let's take again Mike and Jane but with different initial points.
Mike has 150 points, Jane — 25. Mike gives Jane +5 points. He loses 5 points and receives bonus points for givings (default value is 0.05 for each given point): 0.05 * 5. And Mike's points after the giving will be 145.25 (the system rounds up all the fractions to 1 figure after the decimal point but in the database all is saved in float numbers). So, we'll see Mike's points as 145.3. Jane will get 5 points multiplicated by the Mike's constant 1.3. So, she will have after all 31.5.
Now, let's see if Jane gives Mike +5 points. Mike will get exactly 5 points. Because multiplication constants work only in case when giver has more points than receiver.
So, Jane will lose 5 points which she gave and will receive a bonus for givings (0.05 * 5).
