'Even a beggar can tell the truth'
Just because someone has a few red or Green dots under their avatar does not make them a saint or a sinner. Say someone had loads of green reps, does that mean that he will never post bad things, no.
Anyone can tell the truth, and just because they're new, or not-liked, doesn't mean they shouldn't be taken seriously. Everyone has a right to speak & be heard, and a silly little Dot System isn't going to try & wreck that.
@Jadosra:
That would be damn useful, because then we wouldn't see shitty debates about stupid things, and if we did, they would have bad rep, which would make them "not to take serious" type, even by the newbies on the forum.
So - if there was a debate, you wouldn't read their posts, or take in their points, you'd simply see how many 'Reps' they had ?
Oh, he's in the negatives, that means every single thing he says is going to be untruthful & flame-filled, how terribly cliché.
Because the system would be unjust, there are people around here who would get too much 'Rep' & others who would get too little, and then to top it off people will not be judged on what they post, but the number of dots they have under their avatar ?
Jesus was believed to be an evil, lying, fraud by the Majortiy of the people,
(The Romans) - But just because MOST people believed that, doesn't make it true …
Now, I'm sorry to be so blunt with you Jadosra, because you do make some good valid points in your everyday postings & such, but this idea - No.
