Thank you for opening this thread. I'm really looking forward to the new changes, can't wait.

What about CF characters? I spent a lot of cha-ching making me look good.

We will still have characters, but will be an either or with the avatars

 

[snoochface]

No to both.

What about reputation? Is it turning to Karma? Love? Thanks? Appreciation? Some other silly and meaningless name that will confuse everyone? Or is it staying as reputation? Or is the CF2 version of reputation going to mean karma or love or whatever?

But... it's not my character or my profile... it's my avatar that defines me.

You will retain your reps.... there is a possibility that the name may change, tho.

That's not good at all. Most of the Repaholics SubForum ins built off of that terminology. Why change the name?

 

[Criada]

I only said might.
At the moment, I believe the feeling is to leave it as is

Because it will only confuse people for about a week and then they'll go with the flow. Or so some think.

It will be even more confusing since there is a feature known as "reputation" that will not be reputation as we know it, but some other karmic kudos feature.

But the sheep will follow their leader. It's all good.

I am just saying that it is not a trivial issue to the folks who made 160,000 posts in 4 months!

Right now the Rep System isn't nailed down. When it is more information will be told.
