Hey,

I started using fanmail.biz just after the Reputation Point system was abolished. Could some1 please explain the points are all about?

Is the Reputation Point system going to come back, cause I heard people weren't so thrilled about it?

:D thx :D

i didnt really get it either, it was pointless really if someone helped someone else then the person they helped would give them a reputation point didnt see the point in them at all

Well I've been on this site for almost one year and the rep. points were kind of a way to see how helpful the person is, or is the member bad or good, something like that. It got taken away because when you helped someone you gave them a {up} but after a while people stopped doing that and some members created two accounts just to give them a {up} . Also some people would just give a rep. point because they were friends or for a great success and people also gave random {down} . In other words, it was just getting out of hand, so when fanmail got an "upgrade" and made changes Admin took out rep. points. There most likely not coming back

Hopefully they dont come back. They cause a LOT of arguments, and they're pointless, and not worth the hassle they cause.

In my opinion of course ;-)

If they do come back which would be absolutely retarded. Members should have a choice wether they want to give and receive rep. points. It was sad that members on here were worried more about getting a rep. point than receiving an authentic autograph.

They were abused, and didn't really work that well.
