Not really. It got removed because it was pointless.

I think it was not pointless. It was a goal to get as much as possible

It kinda got people to post.

I agree, credits were rather pointless. I would rather people post just to post.

The Credits system failed miserably.

If we can get it going again, but plan, like REALLY, then we can make it fun.

Reputation is probably the best catalyst to get people to make more intelligent and rational posts. It's a forum add-on I have always liked and unlike other forum additions it's not useless. Credits on the other hand build up over time and soon enough you're a millionaire and you can buy the whole forum store, rendering the value of points/posts to nothing. At one point it could be a motivation to post but then that would quickly fade, which is why I'm sure we don't have it anymore.

Rep system sometimes creates Forum rep whores though. Everything is going to have a down side. But rep is always fun.

Is rep like you can give someone positive or negative rep when they post something... or something like that?
