-4/+4 is huge compared to other groups.

A bit "overpowered" if I do say so myself, the only other group I know that can do it as high as sponsers is staff and management.

Shouldn't it be.

Limited -0/+0
Anyone -1/+1
RG Elite -2/+2
Sponser -3/+3
Moderators -4/+4
Staff -5/+5
Management -10/+10
 
I agree with this, although I'm just now thinking of it since you bring it up.
 
I agree with this, they do have a little bit too much to give out.
I support this, maybe their reputation rights should be nerfed a little.
 
I disagree, you shell out 25$ for Sponsor, you should get something more than a flashy userbar.
 
I should say the exact same thing as everyone else. You backed up what you're trying to say and it makes clear sense, lower the reputation points that are able to given it.

I support this 100%.

Other then the recognition for donating? Tad bit selfish isn't it?
 
why do people care about rep?
that is the real question

This isn't about reputation, it's about equality.

Sure people "pay" for better forum access but overdoing it ruins it for everyone else.

Not necessarily, if someone wants the privilege of giving 4 rep, they can buy Sponsor.
Doesn't really ruin it for someone, it's there available to buy.
 

Wrong, it's not available to buy for everyone. Not everyone has the capability to fork over 40$+ for all the upgrades. In turn, the abundance of immaturity that plagues our upgraded users dampens the total forum status down to a few children bickering.

Now who would want to stay or even want to upgrade in a forum like that?
 

Look at HackForums....

Why not just give the Mods more reputation power rather than lowering the rest?

It would balance it out.
 

Wrong, it's actually 25$.
Secondly, it IS available to everyone. If they want Sponsor bad enough and cannot afford to pay the 25$, they can just as easily bot to gain RSGP. The Elite accepts RSGP as well, about 30M should award someone with Sponsor status.
This being said, if the extra privileges that come with being a Sponsor/Elite entice someone enough, they DO have the opportunity to buy them. Therefore, it doesn't make it "unfair" to them that upgraded members have the ability to award more rep and so forth.
 

To feed our already "power-hungry" mindsets? No thanks.

Also, The Elite refused to take my RSGP for any upgrades, and a group creation. I myself cannot use paypal, so that avenue of payment is out of the window.
 
Normal members shouldn't even be able to give rep, that's rediculous.

Lol, you're quite funny, for shelling out 25$ your helping for server costs and more. If you had +3 you wouldn't complain it would be exactly be the same as HF, just on HF you spend more. Stop your complaining.
