User blog comment:Buroda/Compliment system offer - an alternative to reporting/@comment-4915885-20120601001450/@comment-3514681-20120601075641

Actually this, i hope, will make trolling less, uhm, viable?

What i mean is, reporting works, but it's not explicid. Mostly because a lot of people do not believe it works. So they troll, thinking that it will not happen to them. Then, if they troll, they have to be actually reported (not sure it happens always), and then they must be voted for punish. The lag and lack of clear connection is the fault. If your father grounds you every month "for something you know you did", you do not feel justly punished, and maybe you will carry on misbehaving.

If the players will be able to give clear and visualized rewards to those who did good, it will create an actula desire to behave. As Al Capone said, "You can get much farther with a kind word and a gun that you can with a kind word alone", and right now we are, sadly, only have the revolver, which does even make a clear firing sound.
