Ruy Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Hi, if you know the phpBB system, you may also know that it has a MOD that will allow members to get points by posting messages, and also that admins can give them to users. Isn't this a nice option to put on IPB?

Isn't this a nice option to put on IPB?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> This is better suited for a modification however I would like to have users be able to rate posts (give posts points sort of) based on their usefulness.
Ruy Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 I think both are good ideas, so may the staff can put them only for option in adminCP, you know, put points system on-of, allow members to rate posts etc.
Wolfie Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 This is one that would be nice, but is better left as a mod. The problem is that as far as I know, there is no official "global point system" for everyone to work off of. Everyone is basically trying to work with others that are already there. If someone were to make a global points mod, or if at least a standard method were use for calling on saving/loading profiles, then all someone would have to do is pick the points system they want, and then all mods that use points could just call on it with agreed on names, so it wouldn't matter how the points were stored or what other options/fields there were, so long as certain things remained constant. :)
Wolfie Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Probably not but it would still be nice. Especially if it were to make adding mods (and for those that make them, writing the mods) a bit easier.
datoufish Posted November 7, 2004 Posted November 7, 2004 Points system is great! I ever visited a website, its forum members may qualify for free books if they have get enough points in that forum. Points they get may used for gifts certificates. :)
outlaw Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 But think about it, would you say most of the sites out there would use this?
Wolfie Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Point systems and rating mods/systems already exist.http://www.invisionize.com/
Germany Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 I like this idea better as default than the props (opposite of warn) system. It's more comprehensive.
