Hunter Reputation System, good or bad?

As you may noticed there is a plus and a minus sign at the right side of my post. It's called the Hunter Reputation system. Every post have these signs that you can click, but you won't see it in your post. You give a plus if a post is helpful or simply amazing, creative, kind...etc. You give a minus if the post is rude, spam, has too much cussing, flamming.... etc.

You can see your acquired Hunter Reputation points at the left side of your post or in your profile.


The question is, is this a good or a bad idea?

I applied this system on this board to make members have an actual attempt of improving as a poster and helping others... so they can gain something good or a simple reward for being a good member of the board.

I think it's a pretty good idea. Things like that will usually motivate me to do better in whatever the 'rating' is being applied to.

Nothing really special. Just serves as some sort of preview, if the member is a good one or not. Those who got negative ratings obviously are not-so-good members. Those who got high ratings are good members and have a good reputation around the forum.

I agree with hypermonkey I think it's a good idea as well
