The reputation system gives a far more inaccurate picture than the join date/postcount based systems for the same reasons given above. So I'm not going to reiterate the same thing over and over.As i said before, join date and post count already displayed in your postbit when you post. So you get the recognition from them. So no need to add stars based on that again. You can't give reputation to same person again and again. You have to give 35 more and come back. Anyway every system can be abused. But registration date or post count based ranking system can give very fake image about a user than this reputation system.
And once again i have to say don't worry too much about reputation system its a user based system and its not the official ranking system.
Obviously you havent seen any word lists based filtering systemsIts same like your email box, Pm box or what ever. Try involving in an argument and post your email in it.
Or join those internet groups and involve in an argument. You will get same type of messages to your inbox. Try combating them with automated spam guards. You can't because they sent from real people with different Ids.
So your comparison totally fails.
It can be minimized by removing the commenting feature in the reputation system and it can be COMPLETELY eliminated by NOT using the reputation system. Do you atleast agree to that ?So please understand the nature of a public community. We are trying to minimize it but it can not be stopped.
So in the community site, we are not expected to interact other than to post songs, pics and poems.Now if you don't get involved with hot arguments and bashing other members you hardly get such rep comments.
Hot arguments and bashing is also part of the public community. Perhaps you didnt understand that ?
