We have recently purchased vBulletin and will be integrating it into our site. There are several mods we need in order to release the forum. The first and most important, is a Karma mod.

So that our effort can help people not just on our web site, but also you other vBulletin webmasters, I would like to get your input. Please put great thought into the features you would like in the Karma system, what Karma would be based on, etc. and inform me here.

We will compile all of the best ideas, thoughts, feature request, etc. and formulate a description of how the final Karma system will work and post it to this forum. Then we'll take final comments and begin to develop it. After that we'll release it to everyone. I have contacted the vBulletin guys about including mods we do in future versions of vBulletin (They've yet to reply.), so let's make sure we make the ideas for this mod killer!

Regards!

ps: We are professional developers. You can be sure the mod will be top quality.

have fun with this and be sure to look around a little.;)

If something is up to vBulletin's standards and is something that users want, chances are we will include it. We may or may not use existing code in those cases; we may base it on an existing hack, but then again we may not. It all depends.

Fair enough. So everyone, let's get down to the feature/idea suggestion/requests for the Karma mod! We're hoping to get it all ironed out by the end of the week and have the mod written by the middle of next week.

I've seen countless posts by people regarding Karma, yet noone has posted thoughts/ideas/requests regarding it. The end of this week is as long as we can wait. After that, you have no excuse to bug other people about a Karma hack. :-)

heh, well people have requested it alot back in the day and they know where to get it. so many people opt to get Overgrows karma hack. while others just make then and dont realese them to the publice

Here is what I'm looking for.

I like the way sitepoint.com has points assigned for each users, 2 points for new topics and 1 point for replies. Then combine that with a feature that gives points when your thread reaches x number of replies and/or x number of views. So that you get points for starting good topics and not just spam.

And then combine it with a rating system and give points to users based on thier ratings from other users like UBB 6 allows.

Two of these I've seen seperately and they don't work well apart, IMHO. Combining them together eliminates the need for people to spam for points and helps eliminate people getting upset by bad reviews.

Then have these points totaled each month/quarter/6 months/week/year, etc. So that we could run contests for the users.

thanks

One more thing...

Also assign points for referrals.

I'm looking exackly for this for ages. :)

The above suggestions are all very good and exackly what I wanted myself. Here is what I would like to add.

• Allow admin to toggle (change the points given to number of post or reply) and ability to add more custom fields.
• Points can be use to purchase "standard avatar (e.g require 20 points)", custom avatar (e.g require 40 points), custom titles (e.g require 50 points) and etc. Once they purchase the points will be deducted from their total.
• Points can also be use to exchange discounts e.g 15% (can be anything that you sell).
• Set expiry dates for all the point (customizable depends on each webmaster) e.g every end of the year if the user did not use them it will expire.

I'll let you know of more ideas if I think of any.

lol so you have seen shinraonlines store hack have you. well good luck with it. we thinks i might make a free karma hack someday
