curious, does dislike have any negative effect?

Good question Kaotik...


To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived—this is to have succeeded.”

@Kaotik .....You don't like my girl that has survived 2 mite attacks, been sitting under a UVA light or maybe it was a UVB light can't remember for 3 months, not fed or watered, been in 38* temps and is now sitting on the window sill when it is below zero outside.

you don't like me. lmao.
Like 4u mentioned, I would dislike myself, if it would let me.

i setup the points system so that the points reflect who is contributing to the forum the most. and i set the goals REALLY HIGH! if you want to see 5 pot leafs next to your name you currently need 10,000 points. 10 points for creating a thread, 3 point for posting in a thread, 3 points for uploading pictures to the gallery, and 1 point to comment on a pic in the gallery.

i haven't found how to do it yet, but in the future i want to limit people from getting points for the "fun stuff" like the coffee table threads and posts. i think the rating system should always reflect who contributes the most useful info. not the person who loves to play the most forum games.


EDIT: also i want to add that as the forum ages, i would like the re-calibrate the points system so that in a few years we just a have a forum full of 5star members. i think it will help to keep people wanting to contribute to the forum.

So you get more points for asking a question, then you do for helping, by answering a question?

I never "liked" the point systems..they are Hard to set up to be accurate..Ive allways liked the people to correct wrong info...Never went by the ratings myself

just my thoughts

i agree duck, i'm hoping in the future xobor will release some updated features that will allow the admins to have better control over how the points are distributed.

for instance, in a perfect setting i would be allowed to allocate points according to each category(coffee table, grow journals, basic growing, etc), and to each forum(lighting, hydroponics, germination, etc)

that way i could allocate 0 points to posts and threads in "sports talk", "coffee table", or "games".
but in "grow journals" 10pts for starting a journal, and 1pt for posting in someones journal
or "plant hospital" 1 point for making a help thread, 1 pt for posting in a solution in a help thread, BUT an additional 10pts awarded to the person who's post helps the most, and therefore get's "liked" the most.

This would be impossible as the "Liked" count could/will always be changing.

The whole "points" thing should just be dropped, IMO.

What's the point? Do I win an award at the end of the year? Will I get into the stoners Hall of Fame? If you have 1 point, and I have 10 points, does that mean I'm 10x's the grower you are, or just sit on this forum hovering over a keyboard?


I was on a BBQ forum, and they had a game called "Last Post Wins". I asked "what do you win?". And was told "you don't win anything". So I asked "Shouldn't it be called "Last post doesn't win anything?"..................They asked me to leave.

This whole points thing is juvenile. JMO.

i'm in agreement with cubby.
at the same time it does no harm.. but just not worth the time effort to mess around with IMO
just wanted to make sure dislike didn't get anyone stamped red or anything

I really have no opinion about the points. The only time I felt they were helpful was at MP for newbies that could find out who to take advice from based on their ratings. But here they don't really mean anything I guess. So i am good with whatever you decide.

It seems like a lot more work for shortbus to do...He has done a lot all ready...as for MP...it was the same thing...you cant decide to take addvice from someone with a lot of points....Hell I probably had more than most and Im not all that great...same with others that had post counts up but didnt grow a plant....is also why I didnt like the MVP there..more a popularity thang than anything...

don't worry i wasn't planning on actually trying to create some kind of elaborate points system. this was just a hypothetical situation i brought up where points could be made not so arbitrary. and naturally pcduck was enjoying shooting holes in my theory while i would respond with duct tape. just wishful thinking is all

Duck tape justuck] me up

on the point I alway thought at MP they were messed up because I went from a newbie to the 3rd in point in a yr or so. I think most my points came from the BHC and the copy and paste threads I had made. I know there are a lot of threads that are stickies with my name on them that I did not write. Til I wrote the Hillbilly Guide I had never posted anything worth sticking it was all other ppl work that I got points for.. Look at my points here it's all set up threads I copied and posted to here.
