Thumbs up/down : Karma for posts?

The last day or so has had some really entertaining and quality posts on the forums. Some of the best material I've seen yet. Really love the posts by the GM's - I think they're doing a top notch job.

With that said, I was wondering if the boards could support a thumbs up/down type system like you see in reddit. I think it would be awesome to show support for the quality posts I've seen written lately.

I know some may argue that we'll need equal rights on voting...can't just be thumbs up. I understand...and if a thumbs down needs to be implemented as well, so be it.

Overall, quality stuff by a number of posters here. Especially the GM's. I think it would be great to show support for those posts of merit!

Keep up the great work guys. Sometimes you have to take a step back to move two steps forward. I think this server is marching to greatness

long live the dream!

Don't really think it's necessary.

I think it would help with people wanting to do a +1 on a post. Especially as there are rules against it.

i dont like the idea of a thumbs down button in such a small community like we are.

To me it would seem like a waste of time. Not needed. ;)

You realise this is an Alpha. The GMs are doing everything they can. They are doing a great job so far with thr RvR system. I have enjoyed reading the forums the last few days. When posting lets all take in and remeber this game is in a ALPHA state. I would be down for a thumbs up/down system though. That way i can battle on the forums as well.

Great point about Alpha. Sometimes I think we all tend to forget that for a moment, despite it clearly being written on the webpage.
