A bit analogous of the original eBay rating system. They have since changed it so buyers can't be given negative feedback, so sellers are at buyer's mercy with little opportunity for a response if the buyer is full of it.

So who enabled the feature here in the first place & why, no heads up to forum members? Took a schmuck like me to bring up the subject. I still haven't been able to change anything since I'm unable to find any options on it.

I've seen other forums where a similar feature is used, but it's the text under your avatar/forum handle, where this board shows "junior member" or "member". These seem primarily dependent on post count, so as your count rises, the text changes accordingly, to something like "very respected member" or even "moved on" if the person is given the boot.

Titus enabled it. We didn't really know that we were getting it either, I'm not sure why some of the staff have it on and some have it off. I just checked and apparently mine is on, and I'm hot stuff .

Really its just fluffy, kind of like pressing "like" on a facebook comment. On other boards its called "karma". I think its just another way to be more interactive on the board but it really means nothing. I'm sure it will be a bit of harmless (hopefully) fun and after we realize it really does nothing for the board it will be turned off...
