    You missed out on all the fun yesterday, Baus.

    I negotiated a deal with SBR to keep mine, though.

    Confiscated. Rep points are not for sharp players.

    Nice bit of bait-and-switch, Bill. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    At first I was wanted to getting rid of the rep points however I have looked at more educated reasoning to bring them back. I have voted at getting rid of the points at first but now it might make people lose interest without them.

    I have read a book Freakomonics in the past and heres what they says about little simply things like this. Freakomonics was the one of the best book ever based on number facts.

    1). People will work harder for Incentives-in SBR case people will not care to put good quality posts no more since there is no incentives reps. People kept coming back because of the points and reps points.

    2). Production is higher when there is a award or bonus.-In SBR case good quality posts were with awarded with Rep points. Without no awards people will lose interest really fast and start writing worthless material.

    3). Without Rep points people lose interest and would not care to post no more. SBR will and might lose low to moderate gamers going to other sites like the rx and etc. I believe it is a way to big of a gamble to take, it is always good to have new people interested in SBR. A lot of young people like bonuses and incentives to stay.

    4). THe rep point sets SBR apart from everyone else. THe main reason I kept coming everyday to SBR is because of quality posts and nice bonus rep system.

    5). Human nature says people lose interest fast without something to strive for.

    On the negative side-When there was alot of bonus or incentives people managed to find ways to award them self with points and clics and abuse the system. If contolled properly it should not be a problem. There might be abuse of some posters and some people might think they are annoying but this essential to keep people attratced to SBR.

    I am going to start up a new thread to bring this back.
