>>The more settings there are, the more complicated it would be, but one way to do it would be to give each poster these options:
1. giving points
a. give points and show which posts receive them
b. give points, but don't show which posts receive them
c. don't give points2. receiving points
a. receive points and show posts which receive them
b. receive points, but don't show which posts receive them
c. don't receive points3. showing total
a. show total
b. show total only if in top 10
c. don't show point totalThe initial poster would have to give (1a or 1b) and the appreciated poster would have to receive (2a or 2b) for points to be awarded at all.
The initial poster would have to give and show (1a) and the appreciated poster would have to receive and show (2a) for it to show which post the initial poster appreciated.
Maybe a separate page would show the posters who agreed to be shown. 3b (only the top 10) could be the default. Even if a poster's point total weren't shown, they would still be able to find out for themselves where they stood relative to others.
How does that sound?<<
It sounds like you have been reading Kafka. I mean, invisible points? It's a stroke of genius worthy of the master!
