Ok.
Here is the FAQ and discription of ths system used in another Forum. That system is a very good advanced Karma System. Text was german and translated by Google, so the gramma might be bad.
Here first the level system with the thanks system:
End of May 2006 we have introduced a new system user groups. With this, it is possible to present, how active a member of the forum.
We have introduced the new system because we felt that the ranks could not provide sufficient answers as to how active a user is. These points are illustrated in a RPG-like system with graphics up to 150 levels.
There are three bars: Level, Level Up and Activity. Level indicates the current level. With Level Up, the user can control how far it is still far from the next level. The last bar, the activity, shows the number of posts in the last 90 days. There is always a user of most of the articles has written, this is based on the maximum value. If that user activity, for example 200, but it itself has 100 (= 50%), half of the bar is the bar full.
How all this works, how do I get points?
The value for the points is composed of several variables: User-created threads and posts, whether his subjects are popular (number of responses, hits and rating) of his subjects, number of days since its registration, whether he has received warnings. All this and many other values are added to a certain way, multiplied and subtracted. It also plays a role in the forum were created in the topics / posts. For example, in the off-topic posts will receive fewer points than contributions in the modding forum.
Which is the most rewarding action is still the writing of qualitative themes and contributions. These contributions have rewarded a greater chance of being someone with a thanks. It gets a bonus of assessed contributions, the Forumsabhängig. A detailed breakdown there until the next statistic.
But beware: We monitor the statistics for the thanks-for improper use and can also reset again. As an example serves us a 2nd ersteller user account which enhances the contributions from the first user again and again by thanks. This also applies to trusts, we find it to hochschaukeln if two users thanks to the other. Such an approach runs counter to the spirit of this function, deceiving the community and is ostracized by us with a warning.
Even the best automaticity can not replace the moderators. The mods are therefore increasingly go to the search for points of hunters.
What is the exact breakdown of my points?
Such statistics are already produced and released shortly. So that everyone can see how his points were accumulated.
What bonuses there is at what level?
Level 1 - Level 2: New User
Level 2 - Level 22: Can upload your own avatar, use of pagers
Level 23 - Level 50: Bigger avatars, more space for PM's, bigger signature
Level 51 - Level 80: Bigger avatars, more space for PM's, larger signatures, access to exclusive avatars
Level 81 - Level 150: Insider wears a special banner
I have received a warning. How many points will be deducted from me now?
It depends on the severity of the warning. Lightweight warnings are issued only when ignoring a warning via PM / contribution, ie against repeat offenders. The following warnings:
2 Verwarnpunkte for Spam / Offtopic / search function
3 Verwarnpunkte for Offensive Post (easy)
5 Verwarnpunkte for warez
5 Verwarnpunkte for Spam / Offtopic (bulk)
6 Verwarnpunkte for Attacking post (heavy)
6 Verwarnpunkte for abuse of the Inside SupCom systems such as downloads, SUPEDIA, etc. ..
By the way, from 10 Verwarnpunkten the user is locked out for a week by the Forum, with repeat offenders, the lock time automatically added to the permanent ban from 30 Verwarnpunkten. Slight limitation period warnings after 60 days, with severe warnings until 90 days. This does not apply to the items are included since all warnings. The Verwarnpunkte be multiplied by 50 and subtracted from the level points.
And here the Renomee/Karma system:
In December 2008 was put on InsideSupCom.de that brought by vBulletin fame (also: Reputation, reputation, reputation) enabled. As a result some disturbances may be mentioned by users.
Since the system was installed only after three years, lacked the votes of existing contributions. To make a reasonably reliable Inidikator to have been the "contribution" Thank points imported into the system. Pro Thank you have a reputation of receiving point. Similarly, even warnings have been imported - as though 1:10 to a course.
You rate the contribution of a user, not the users themselves, the more positive ratings a user the more gets more counts his voice. Missteps do not fall on to do the user much more disturbing, or have a good corresponding bar that goes in a positive or negative trend.
Negative opinions can be compensated only by good contributions again. Warnings will be punished with 10 reputation points per warning point.
What ratings are possible?
Positive reputation = reading Dear contribution that advances the community
Negative reputation = Offensive, illegible, factually incorrect, poorly researched, pointless post
Neutral reputation = assessment Tender user does not have a low reputation multiplier, evaluation possible
There is also a possibility to the user for his contribution to thank.
Thank you = Thank you for the effort / Answer - This has no influence on the reputation
How can I forgive reputation?
You can renown awarded only to posts. This is the balance which is left in each post, directly below the name / avatar / bar. Clicking on a separate scale displays its own points.
The assessment can not be altered retrospectively, only within the first 15 minutes you can delete it and evaluate again. For this you have to go into his own profile, there is a listing of the last 10 received and assigned ratings.
What does the renown modifier?
This value determines how many points a user is assigned a rating can. The modifier is composed as follows:
- 1 basis point
- Registry factor per 365 days, is registered to the user who changes an assessment of the reputation value of the author, at an additional point.
- Entry factor: Pro 1000 Contributions assess the reputation of the author's value changes by one additional point.
- Reputation points factor: Pro 100 reputation pts assess the reputation value of the author does an additional point.
How many posts do I have to have in order to have an impact on the reputation points of another user?
50 Posts
How many reputation points must I have to have an impact on the reputation points of another user?
50 reputation pts
What is the maximum number of evaluations per post 24 hours?
A maximum of 10 reviews
How many posts from different users need to be evaluated before a further contribution of an already time user rated should be evaluated?
At least 10 contributions from other users need to be assessed
Derelict If the points?
The points do not expire and can be restored to normal only by positive reviews.
Counting Thanks to the reputation?
No. At the beginning it was still possible, so that you could rate a post, but twice (reputation + Thank You)
I do not see who has rated me
This is only from the rank of "Striker" is possible.
Where can I see who I've reviewed? Where can I see who has rated me?
Each works on the main page in the Control
It has not to be like this page:http://www.insidesupcom.de (
http://www.insidesupcom.de)
But it could help for a better Karma System.
Maybe you could contact the Admin of the Forum and ask him about the system...
