An alternative Rep system

[zone]

I think the Thanks option would be best, because then we can see if they are a decent member or not, better than the rep system i'd say but that's just my 2cents.

I think its a good idea. Some users are using anonymous feature to rep negative. Its not good as far as an Support Forum is concerned. Usually when members get a negative rep, they loose heart and courage and usually leave from here. I will go for this idea to add Thanks system rather to use reputation.
