Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Enhanced Reputation Checks

As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This modification adds a set of extra checks whenever members try and give reputation to posts.
Some extra features have been added to the vb4 version (two based on requests in the 3.8 thread).

The main features are ;

Minimum Comment Size
If set, a reputaion comment must contain a minimum number of characters.

Positive Reputation Multiply Factor
Any positive reputation given will be multiplied by the "Positive Reputation Multiply Factor" - See also the Custom Factors below.

Negative Reputation Multiply Factor
Similar to above - any negative reputation given will be multiplied by the "Negative Reputation Multiply Factor".

Custom Forum Based Multiply Factors
As well as the default forum wide factor settings for positive and negative reputation, it is also possible to set custom values for specific forums. Again, please carefully read the setting notes on how to do this (examples are given). You cannot use this to overide the global maximum.

Custom Usergroup Based Multiply Factors
These are basically the same as the forum based custom factors, but based on the giving members usergroup. Note that by default these will override any forum based multiplier (but see the priority option below).

Multiply Factors Priority
By default, custom usergroup multipliers overide the custom forum multipliers, this option can be used to reverse this priority.

Closed Threads Limit
Posts in closed threads, that exceed the given age, cannot be given reputation.

Open Threads Limit
Posts in open threads, that exceed the given age, cannot be given reputation.

User Ban List
An option to ban individual members from being able to give reputation to anyone.

All settings are in vBulletin Options > Enhanced Reputation Checks

To install - Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

Points to note ;

• Posts that you cannot give reputation on will not display the reputation icon/link.
  
• In order to give negative reputation to a post a comment must be supplied - this is part of default vb 3.6 onwards and cannot be changed by this modification.
  
• If a member does not have permission to give negative reputation then any negative reputation they try and give will be set to zero - in default vb they ended up giving positive reputation.
  
• If set, the vb fixed admin reputation value will still be multiplied by any Multiply Factors specified in this modification.
  
• If the negative reputation factor is 0.5 (to replicate default vb) then there will be one minor difference, a member whose positive reputation power is 1 will have a negative reputation power of 0, in default vb this would be -1.
  
• The reputation cap is checked after any multiplication factors have been applied - so no member can give more than the set cap, no matter what factors are applied first.

[It's Damn Real!]

Nothing. Simply activating it. To test the theory that one interferes with the other I set the cap to below what some of the highest users have theirs set to and when the extended reputation system is turned off the reputation cap takes affect and brings their cap back to the maximum number set.

Once I turn back on Extended reputation, though, that cap no longer applies and their rep power goes right back to what it was despite the cap being set.

Sorry, but you didnt really answer what I asked.

What steps [exactly] are you performing to test this.

There is no possible way I can see that the display mod would have any effect at all, so I need to know precisely what you are doing, and precisely what you are checking.

Thanks.
