Now they have stop to show whether a member is contributing quality posts or not. All are just reciprocating rep. I give you give me.

That is very true.

I meant to say that I give you & you in turn give me.

I don't think this happens.Rarely, once in a while with me.

The reputations' system can either be scrapped altogther or left as is. Not much can be done. There are some mods available as an alternate to reputations' system but basically it will just mean replacing one system with another with no significant advantage.

Have a look here: http://www.indiabroadband.net/sugges...-settings.html (vBulletin Reputation Settings)

Reputation User Spread
This setting dictates how many unique members that a user must rate before they are able to rate the same member twice. The goal of this setting is to stop a member from either artificially bumping or dropping a user by repeatedly rating their posts.

That's what I am talking about.If this no. is reduced a bit then it would be better.

It is more than that. You also cannot give more than n reputations in the last 24 hours.

Otherwise there is a sinple trick - you can give reputation to some random (obscure) members and then give the rep back to the person whom you wished to originally.

But in my personal opinion, the rep system has lost a lot of significance because of the "insider trading".

Well the no. of reps we can give in 24 hours is absolutely fine.And hardly 1 day I got that message.

But I think finding inactive members from old threads is a sheer wastage of time and currently members are distributing reps the best way they could. (at least I feel so.

)

I think it's best if the reputation system is remove/disable and instead use the "Number of Thanks received" addon (or similar option) like ShAdOwCoN's suggested sometime ago or use a rating system for each posts instead, if possible.
