Make it 1,000 and then open a rep casino thread. I'm sure siro would enjoy himself(he may never leave).

PS sorry for singling you out siro (kinda)

Why sorry? It's an amazing idea...

Gotta be rep poker though. I don't play other casino games.

Actually I'd like to propose an idea:


Why not keep the cap at 100, but re-set it to 0 annually so everybody start afresh each year?


That's kinda like what they do with tennis ATP tour right? Each player start with 0 and gathers points as they win tournaments and and at the end of the year they crown the winner. I think they also do the same thing with the PGA tour if I'm not mistaken.


That way new posters also have a chance at posting better and getting somewhere too instead of same old same old posters with 100 Rep.


Just a thought.

Kinda like that actually. Rep based on a rolling year window... Hmm.

It's an interesting idea, but I don't think there's any way to do it unless we (a) reset everyone's Total Rep Points to 0, and (b) take away the other two factors which currently contribute towards RAP, namely time on Jazzfanz and number of posts.

If there's a way to do (a) in a batch, we could consider (b) as well.

And there could be a "legacy" rep score, maybe? something that represented you're lifetime accumulation of rep points, but was not used to determine you "season" rep score that was used to increase your total rep power.

Yup, like a running total which can't be used but does give an indication of how long you've been on Jazzfanz and your level of participation. I like it.
 
In fact, any rep you get over 100 should automatically be given to others unfortunate enough to have not yet reached that milestone.

It's already kind of that way. A ton of us got our rep when rep was very low. Now a new poster can come in and pile up rep, literally, 100x faster than we did in the beginning.

It's all so very complicated. Quite complex and nebulous.
That's why mods know best by just creating socialism in the vacuum of a sports message board.
It's a safe and equitable place for all.
