I've seen this on some forums. You can thank others posts and it boosts there reputation

Some examples of websites that have this are

www.socialanxietyforums.com
www.philosophyforum.com

We've deliberately disabled that feature because it would become a popularity contest.

Some of the boards have topic rating enabled if you want to use that.

De-gnosis: ADD, recurrent depression (or maybe bpII in the guise of such), Asperger's, OCD, social anxiety
Today's Pill Menu: Dexedrine, Wellbutrin (Budeprion), Topamax, Risperdal, clonazepam

Yes. For example, I would vote against VE because his avatar makes me hungry, regardless of the quality of his posts.

We did have that feature once. I must say that the average quality of the posts has gone up since we dropped it.

Besides, if we brought it back, I would strongly lobby for one of the titles to be "asshole" and I would aim for that...

Ah, the good ol' days... I'm glad we don't have that system in place anymore.

Yeah, being able to judge other posters with a point system would be a great feature for a website filled with mentally ill people with self-image issues...

Hey!

I don't have issues with my self-image!

It's perfectly content to be in the gutter.

Hey, is this going to become the self-image thread?

In fact I think that there are still boards on here where you can post and it /won't/ increase your post count? Or did we do away with that? I don't know. We had problems with people who would post just to increase post count as if it mattered.

I kind of think it's just the blogs that work that way. I don't pay much attention to post count though, so I could be totally wrong about that.
