I've been noticing people who are spamming/posting LQ and I don't think it is really fair that people who have been here for a while have to sit through each and every person aiming for either the feather or is just spamming because it is how they post, so I was thinking maybe 700/800 posts if it is possible to move into a default usergroup that can give neutrals only and of course positive.

Well, if you report the posts then they'll just burn away for a while and you won't notice them back again.
As for the neutral reputation it's been stated that the owner doesn't really want it on his site. I suppose that's just fine, you won't really be meeting any negative characters on this site.

We all campaigned hard for negative reputations to be disabled and neutral reputations are IMO useless. As for LQP, I don't see this nearly as much as you are suggesting? LQP is dealt with quickly if you see it the please report it.
I do however agree that our higher posting members should get some sort of privallege.

The posting does not all the time matter if it is deleted, but if higher members see them spamming and neutral them and then they request the award from Omni with like three neutrals saying spam/LQP or something, then Omni will be able to deny the award. It'll keep up quality because even the 100 posters will need to think before posting.

The little stars I get under my name and my rep is enough for me. I don't really need much more then that, I'm glad to help here. I just wish that the support feather award achievers wouldn't spam the forums and grave-dig for something they can relate to just to get the feather. I originally joined for this reason but all of my posts were high quality and helpful. I guess a little award on support forums for sticking around would be nice but like I said, my rep is all I need really.

Are you trolling me? I don't care. Your thread may help someone that was too embarrassed to ask.

I don't think you understood the point of the thread paradox xD

Imo if we can't give neutral or negative there isn't a point in the rep system. If everyone is just only going to be able to go up or get banned for LQ, then rep isn't needed.

I am aware of what the reputation system is used for, thank you for further explaining.
