I have something to say about the options for reputation on a post.

Here are the 5 options:
Agree
Informational
Funny
Friendly
Good Point

I think these are good, but I think that there is some other things that should replace some of these.
Agree is fine, keep it
Informational is like a mix between Good Point and Helpful. I think that Good Point and Informational should be replaced with "Helpful Information", or just keep informational and rename Good Point, "Helpful".
Funny is fine
I don't think friendly is a great option to use, I would get rid of it

Lastly, these buttons should be on the same line as the Quote, sharing, and report buttons to make this more streamlined.

My new build; Liberator, Check it out

The more friendly we are, the more helpful we are!

I want my old forums back. I don't like change especially on a Sunday night :p

3 tips to have a good time on the LTT forums | 1. When you reply to someone please quote them | 2. Please follow your threads | 3. Follow the C.o.C 

If you follow these 3 tips you should have a blast.

i'm rather proud of this for some reason. http://imgur.com/6ttS5XZ

Maybe PMing a mod would be more appropriate than making a thread about it :P

Personally I' not sure what the "friendly" option is there for - if the user makes a good point, is informative or says something I agree with, there are specific options for that; but on what occasion does one completely miss all those marks, isn't funny, but still comes off as "friendly" on a tech forum? I'm hardly going to comment on someone's hairstyle here...

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Welcome to the forums, I would guess. Or nice rig in a build log.

Maybe the Friendly button might as well be a "Like" button.

I made about the same remark about this earlier.

Most everything else that isn't "agree" could easily be replaced with "agree". I don't see myself using anything but agree really.

Good point is one that I can say is mostly my request. Its intended to be more neutral than what Agree would be.

I agree with Friendly. It needs change to something else. Now its conflicting with both Funny and Good Point in a way.

I think friendly is good. These are no longer just arbitrary meaningless internet points, I think the idea is it can give you an idea what a user is like quite easily. If they've got lots of informative points, they probably know their stuff, if they've got lots of funny points, they're probably a bit of a joker and what they say should be considered sarcastic until proven otherwise :P, if they've got lots of a I agree points or Good Point points, they're probably on the Blue-green team :P, or if they've got loads of friendly points, they're just a nice person

Your hair looks great.

 

On a more serious note, I "agree" (see what I did there) that friendly is somewhat pointless as it should be a foregone conclusion that everyone is friendly(ish) and respectful per the CoC.

 

"Helpful" would be very fitting, and does fill the gap between informative and good point.
