A lot of places have a rep system but they have a votes per day style

The idea is you have a fixed vote on every other player

If I like a player I would vote + and increase his rep, I can revote but it would just change my existing vote not increase/decrease the other players rep so if someone has a positive rep it's because several other players agree that he is a good player not just one person spam voting

I think it would help new players see who supports the Hack Wars community and who brings it down

i like the idea, but i think you should have a "+" vote and a "-" vote so if ppl have negative rep they bring the comunity down and if it's positive they bring it up, and ppl with 0 is neutral/nobody votes for them, so ppl that just have 0 rep won't get mixed up with the "bad ones"

I think the idea is good, but i think that this rep would be influenced by money quite a bit in game. I don't think there is anyway around that, though i think it is something to think about if you really want that rep to represent well rep'd players.

I disagree foo

As long as you don't make reps a bounty item, I can't see this being a problem. I forget to complete vote bounties all the time, mostly cos I'm a slacker, but if there's no profit in it, most people will only rep + or rep - someone if they genuinely feel they deserve it. My only problem I see here is people making rep + alts, but all you have to do is make the people who rep + or - visible in the character page (at www.hackwars.net/player?name=)
That way, anyone who we suspect as alt repping will leave a trail, and can be hit with a banhammer faster than you can say "read the fecking TOS".

That was my two cents...

I can see your point there...

However I suggest this alteration, only the player, mods and devs can check the reppers

If all players could see who votes on who then it could result in peer pressure and buyouts

E.G

Player 1 votes - on player 2
Player 3 votes + on player 2
Player 1 pays player 3 to change their vote

By making it player, mod and dev only if you suspect someone you can have the mods check the rater list

Since this won't be a skill there is no reason to add a new bounty type
