It seems that someone has been messing again with the respect points.
Mine has dropped 9 points in 3 hours, and I can't even find when because in my first pages nothing appears, so it's someone just trolling me, downvoting super old posts.
It's not the first time this happens.
Days ago, someone TOTALLY COMPLETELY TROLLED poor Ahasverus. I fixed that myself upvoting like 50 posts, but it really annoyed me, because I like him and it wasn't fair.
I wonder if we can implement some solution. I thought a couple solutions myself...
* One would be to get rid of the respect system, so no ones messes and if someone disagrees with other user they'd have to say why posting, or swallow it. Sometimes I wonder if the points are even worth for what they are... to me it is like a score for a game, but when I find stupid people doing stupid things it loses its charm and I think perhaps we would get along better without them.
* Other option would be to include a list of recent votes, say, like recent 200, both positive and negative, so no one can go trolling because votes would be on plain sight of everyone.
* And the other answer to this could be adding an option so that posts older than, say, a week, can't be downvoted. This can work perfectly with the previous option.
* Another option could be to require a minimum of time registered and amount of posts to vote. I'm not pointing fingers to anyone, please don't misunderstand me. But duplicate accounts of people who disagreed with me were a problem in the past for me.
As for myself, when I find out who is messing with me, I'll proceed to use the ignore function.
I have enough problems in my life to have to be worrying here where I'm supposed to have fun and relax.
In the meantime, I'd like users to posts their opinions about this subject that, from what I see, all it ever did so far was causing trouble and starting fights.
Thanks for your time.
