Reputation system removed

[wdwmagic]

Hi everyone

Just to update you on the status reputation system trial.

Unfortunately the hope I had that the reputation system would improve standards hasnt really paid off, and I have decided to remove the system from use. It's been a worthwhile test, and I am glad we tried it out to at least make our own decision about it's effectiveness in a real live scenario.

Thanks for taking part in the trial, and I hope you continue to enjoy WDWMAGIC.

The scene: Exterior back alley, day. the area is littered with old newspapers and whiskey bottles. A disheveled man, played by brkgnews, sits on the concrete, leaning against a rain gutter.

Brkgnews: You shoulda seen me, kid. I was somebody once. I was THAT close to having two stars on wdwmagic. Then they go and pull the rug out from under me! O' Cruel Fate! Why must thou mock me!?!?!?!?!?

I agree about the User CP page.

Hey Steve, sell Disney some ad space for their 50th celebration. I'm sure they're looking for ever opportunity to exploit it that they can get. *jk*

Good idea! Some fake green going your way!

It will take about a week to get used to, but I have no complaints whatsoever about the removal. To be honest though, I didn't really notice it being gone until I saw this thread

Thanks Steve.

'Bout time. A good idea in theory, flawed in practice.
