Giving Rep in 5/5 Resource Submit

[Lestat(br)]

Do anybody think it would be a good idea of any user that receives a 5/5 rating from the moderator's review in a resource gets X rep points?

Like, for a 5/5 skin, 2 rep points.
For a 5/5 icon, 1 rep point.
For a 5/5 map, 1 rep point.
For a 5/5 spell, 1 rep point.
For a 5/5 model, 3 rep points.

Just to the reputation be given to the talented users as well.
I hope you approve it.

1 rep for a map is way too little.

Map usually takes more time, to get 5/5.

 

[Squiggy]

Indeed - maps take the most of all the resources and should therefore (if so) rewardet with most +rep..

terrible idea

since its at the liberty of the resourse mods and the communtiy to pick its like saying we will give you mony if you give us someitng first

Not the community, just resource moderators.

What's wrong with giving rep for a good map?

@Lestat(br): I don't find many 5/5 maps. When I do, I certainly give rep. Trust me, good resources generally get enough rep to begin with.

If the resource moderator thinks a resource is deserving of rep then s/he's give it. Why should it be done automatically?

One reason: People thinks mods are lazy.

 

[Ralle]

this would convert rep to post count. Make it automatic. Rep is what people think about other people.

A map is a final product of everything, almost everyone in this community can map, we have tons of maps, and we just grab other resources to do it, we don't help the community much by doing maps.
The skins and the models make possible the creation of better maps, this is actual help to the community.

I don't think they always do it, they just put their rating, this is enough for them.

to post count? I dont know what you mean, but I think that a person who increases the resources of the community with something useful deserves rep's, no matter what people think of them.

Not my point.

1 rep just isn't nothing.

 

[Ghost765]

every rep counts. but i find this system abit... i cant describe it. cause all the good modelers/map makers/skinners will have all these rep points, and the moderately ok guys will have nothing :\ and anyways, people already give rep to good models

 

[Mecheon]

This system is the most exploitable thing I've ever heard of. People will just spam 5/5 ratings on work in order to get massive amounts of rep value

Read the first post first,
He said you would only gain rep from the moderators review not a users review.

It should work only for Director's Cuts (6/5), but I have never rated a single model higher than 4/5; so it's very hard to get a director's cut.

 

[Lestat(br)]

I just created this thread because the models, skins or icons are so 'under-repped', people just download them and use them, sometimes at most just put some credits at the end of the map...
And we've got a lot of talented users between us that has no reputation, and some terrain-spammers get tons of rep's for every single screenshot they post. In addition believe me, this over-repped terrain spam are nearly no help to the hive.

About the director's cut, maybe for a 5/5 rated resource, 2 or 3 rep points, and for a director's cut, like 5-10.

 

[Mr. Bob]

Not a bad idea really. But, there are some faults. Such as: What happens if he/she deletes his/her resource?

 

[Mephestrial]

The rep already happened, so a deleted resource wouldn't remove rep once gone. But if they were to re-upload that same model and it were to be re-approved with that same rating, that would be where this system is broken.

Precisely. You it couldn't work.

Indeed. Someone should close this. It can't possibly work, and is a useless thread from here.
