I was just wondering why can you give some one zero trust points? Why would you give them trust points at all. I for one have never clicked to give zero trust points.

Maybe remove the option?

I can only see it for increasing the vote count, without altering the actual trust point score the user has.


For example, who would you trust more? Someone with 11 trust points and 8 votes, or someone with 11 trust points, and 52 votes?


Just my two cents. But in my opinion I don't see the reason for it to be there. Even with my example up above, the purpose for such a number is pretty useless if that was the case.

When you rate someone it changes their number of Trust Points based on your rating. If you give a negative rating, they lose points. If you give a positive rating, they gain points.

If you decide to rate a person a second time, there will be a message on the page telling you what rating you gave them last time. If the previous rating was -1 and you rate them as 0, they will gain 1 Trust Point. If the previous rating was 2 and you rate them as 0, they will lose 2 Trust Points.

That's why there's an option for 0 Trust Points.

I've actually found it to be a really useful option.

After someone has been banned I quite often set my trust points on them back to 0. I give them a chance to impress me again after their ban has ended.... sort of a clean slate. If they do something positive then I'll give them trust points.... negative and I take away.

it has it's uses.

nintendomangaguy : Well that would be more of removing trust points by giving them a down rating in the trust points. Zero is just like a nueteral trust point setting.

I guess the only reason you'd give someone 0 TP is like how everyone else said. They had some more or less and you give them 0 to return those TP. But if it's your first time rating someone, then the 0 button really has no function.

I find having the 0 TPs option to be very useful, because, as a example, 

I give a user 3 TPs I do trust and think he/she deserves it, and then later, he/she did something that made people downrate him/her, but I only take back my TPs, to see what he/she does later, and if it's good, I give it back, etc etc. 

That's one of the reasons I like the 0 TPs option.

I use the 0 TP option for many things.

Some times I'll see a user who I gave 2 or 3 TP to, get in trouble, and cause issues. I'll set them back to 0 or -1 based on the severity so they can work their way back up.

Other times when a user with -3 TP has impressed me enough, I put them back up at 0 so they have that clean slate with me.

It never occured to me to just give them 0 to start out with. Why punish them by adding a vote without giving them a point total? That's not cool.

I only use 0 when I'm starting with a clean slate with somebody, if their slate is already clean why would I punish them?

Well I don't get why you'd want to remove it, since the whole point of 0 is to give the person a clean slate.

legacyme3 : Because doing what I just did to you is un necessarily and just a waste of a few clicks. If you did not know I just gave you zero trust points. Or is it I took away zero trust points? Either way I technically did something at the same time doing nothing.

billythekidmonster :

Your layout is messed up. Please fix it.

Anyway, this is true, but if you had given me -1 or +1, it would mean more. 0 isn't meant to be the start, 0 is meant to be a way of resetting the tab. That's the point of 0.

It's like the very last line of your code, everything after the a href. You seemed to use closing tags, despite having no opening tags to begin with.
