You can add points when your power is 0. Unfortunately, the laws of nature dictate that x + 0 = x so the recipient will see no change in his rep points.

1. Everyone starts with 20 reputation points and reputation power of 0. When a reputation score of 40 is reached, reputation power becomes 1.
http://samsforum.asia/showpos...&postcount=484 Reputation power reverts to "0" whenever your reputation score falls below 40 points and is restored whenever your score is 40 or more.

2. If reputation points drop to 0 or less, moderation starts. However, this is no reason to stop posting. The only difference is that there will be delay before your posts appear as they will have to be cleared from the moderation queue.

3. Number of posts have NO EFFECT on reputation power.

4. 1 point of reputation power is gained every YEAR.

5. ONE Reputation click allowed every 24 hours so award those clicks only when necessary.

6. Reputation spread figure is 1000 which means you have to give reputation to 1000 other members first before you can vote for a particular member again.

7. Flames and off topic posts will result in point deductions from me or my moderator.

8. Reputation votes are secret. In other words, you can vote either way without fear or favour. HOWEVER, those who abuse the system by making vicious attacks and spewing vulgarities anonymously (ie without revealing your nick) will have their nicks exposed and placed under moderation if the victim complains to the moderators. If you want to abuse someone using all sorts of profanities via the reputation system remarks feature, you MUST reveal your nick when doing so in order not to be penalised.

9. Those who use the reputation system to frame innocent parties will be exposed and placed under moderation.

10. Those caught registering multiple nicks in order to build up their "war chest" to abuse the system will be placed in moderation mode.

11. One reputation power is awarded for every 3000 rep points.

12. Reputation points can no longer be awarded/deducted in the following forum.
a) Newbie Issues/Say "Hi"/Testing section and
b) Soccer Talk Section

13. Posts more than 2 days old cannot be awarded or deducted. There used to be no such limit.

14. Here's how you add and deduct points.


Regards,
sam.

Why is it possible to anonymously zap? I'm getting zapped by assholes who refuse to leave their nicks so I can zap them back. The reason they claim to be zapping me is because I welcome others to post in my random pics thread.

Dun need to thank him la, he is spamming everyone thread with the same support msg to promote his own thread via ur thread traffic. U thought he really support u arh? Dream on...expect more spamming from him wishing u good weekend and good week ahead

Lol, you're so stupid to thank him. That fellow like to ride on other thread traffic to promote his own. He doesn't care what u posted. He did the same to mine too.

Guess you enjoy him stroking ur ego with his spam post.Enjoy~

Ball carrier spotted. This Shave love pets that you always does what he asked. Woof woof, have you seen my latest instalment yet? You will asked be asked this question very often next time, be prepared!

These assholes have a hate on for SHAVE. Why should they be allowed to harass me because of this? I want to be able to zap them back.

Bro, check my thread. I have posted lots of quality pics, welcoming others to post also. My reputation is lower than when I started. What the fuck? If assholes who have a vendetta against a certain member are taking it out on me, why should I waste the time. You say it shouldn't be a war zone, but if cowardly fucks can do this and I have no recourse, why bother? Is that what you want? For people to decide it's a waste of their time to post pics because they will get zapped more than upped? If you would take away this stupid system where cowards can zap anonymously, they would stop zapping for fear of getting zapped back. Fix this stupid system. Let me zap the cowardly fucks back for taking their childish vendetta out on me. All I care about is that people enjoy the thread. If no one appreciates it why do it?

If all you care about is people enjoying the thread, why worry about the zapping?

I'm sure there are loads who enjoy what you are posting.

i get your point mate

however you have to understand not everyone thinks the same...
while some appreciate your work and have upped you.. ..there will be others who might think otherwise for whatever reason..
one of the reason i could think of is that they might have felt you have infringed copyrights by posting pictures from other webby...
hence they negged you.. e.g this one which u posted.. it says all rights reserved etc...

talking about grievance...i have got people accusing me of zapping them when i didnt do it..
and i have open up PM of insults/abuse to me and my family for i dont even know the reason why..
i have also upped almost 1800 nicks in the past week and received very little " thank you " note and 0 points in return..
if i am going to dwell on such incite.. i would have end up having an heart attack a long time ago...

i also do not need to remind you that what gives those zappers most satisfaction isnt about the fact that they zapped u...
believe me....it is when they see u go bonkers after being zapped.. that is what they enjoyed most..

you can chose to give them their satisfaction or pop a chill pill.
anyway.. i have just upped you.. enjoy the forum

Bro, thanks for your post. I appreciate it. If someone has a genuine grievance against me and they zap me, so be it. That's their right, I suppose. For example, if they zapped me for the reason you mention, fine. If they have balls they should leave their nicks so I can either accept their zap or not. However, the reasons are clearly a vendetta against another member. It's petty for them to zap me for that. I have no interest in teenage girl drama and no interest in being dragged into that childish shit. These losers clearly have no balls or they would have left their nicks. I think if every points awarded were not anonymous, there would be less zapping. SBF would be better for it. Thanks again for your words of encouragement and also for your upz. Upz you back, if I didn't already.

When I first started the rep system, everyone could see who zapped them. It was chaos and all out war used to break out and there a few cases that even spilled out into the real world.

I changed the system so that rep votes were anonymous just like they are in the GE. This allows members to show their displeasure with a zap without having to worry about retaliation.

Since the system was changed, things have been a lot more civilized with only an occasional cases of members like yourself kicking up a fuss.

Boss, a suggestion: sell another form of membership that reveals zappers' nicks. I'm pretty sure there is demand for them.
