Not sure if I really understood where you were going with that Deskalada, I think its a fairly basic algorithm where you click "Rep" then "Approve / Disprove" and it either makes your rep go +1 or -1.
Also, I am assuming that the little green dot thing under "Posts: ###" is the reputation meter, is there some way to see the exact ammount of reputation a person has?

and i know egsactly what i'm blabbering about

Ehm, we shouldn't have the option to give negative reputation, a thanks system would be good, like game-artists.net. If you like sombody his post, thank him.
I mean, somebody gave me a minus because I said this: "Site is good, rating system is awfull." in the fpsbanana bullshit topic with the reply "lack of description."
This is just childish and removing the minus option gives a motivation of writing constructive posts imho.

No, negative reputation the entire point. If you cant give negative reputation it defeats the purpose. I also disagree with your statement that removing the minus option will encourage more constructive posts. Generally if someone spends more than a sentence to elaborate their position, then it will not be rated low.
If someone is receiving a lot of negative reputation, there is a reason, and they should try to change their behavior.
Also, there will always be the few asshats that rate people low for little to no reason, this can not be avoided, but it is also a small minority, which I do not feel would swing anyones ratings one way or another.

I've been following this thread since page one, and I like it 
Really wonderful idea.

There is one problem, whenever I try to give rep for good posts it keeps saying "you must spread some reputation around before giving it to this member again" the problem with that is the same people are being deserving of rep over and over, and you can't keep giving it to them because there aren't enough people making good posts to "spread" enough.

w00t I got 11 rep!
(this might be a little off topic)
We use something similar at the ville. Ours is a "cash" mod, where people earn cash points to indicate their level of activity. You start out with 50 points and get points for posting. But the best thing is people donate points to you when you did something helpful. People offer stuff like "Hey B, Ill give 1000 points for that sig!" It also gives us the oppurtunity to "sell" stuff. For instance, we are holding a fun tournament, we could "charge" people x amount of points to sign up. That ensures the people signing up are forum regulars that will frequently check back for updates etc... There is no way for a user to take away points, only the moderators can. BUT, there is a way to red flag a post so people can rouse a mod if needed. Like your guys' "report" button.
IMO the rep should be displayed under the post count.
Rep/cash/karma what ever system is used, use something.... its good for a new guy to the forum to know who is who here.
