Suggestion Box / Re: Proposal: Karma requirements for ranks
« on: December 04, 2024, 12:59:07 AM »
Introducing requirements for ranking is no different than the Merit requirement we are all familiar with elsewhere. We will start seeing abusers as most ranks can send karma just like we see on the other forum. We will see people giving karma for nearly everything to increase their friends or alt accounts.
Being as I am not as active on here as I used to be, my word probably means a little less, but there just isn't enough activity as far as promotion to warrant needing to make radical changes. I know karma can be monitored and abusers will be punished but doesn't seem worth the hassle when you are trying to grow the forum traffic. Report posts, delete spam, try to keep it clean for now and teach users that are not being productive a better way to interact on the forum.
