1) Fora is correct as far as the laws of English are. The plural of words (derived from Latin) ending in -um are supposed to be replaced with -a. (A good example of this, is datum, and data, that are still commonly used today). Much like words (derived from Latin) that end in -us are supposed to be replaced with -i. It is just the modernised, anglicanised "forums" that everybody uses more commonly, as it sticks to the more germanic "theme", if you will, of English.

2) You decide to disregard everything else I had to say, just to make that one sentence.

I've been playing warlight 4 years in December...10th Dec 2015 is my anniversary date....
I don't know if thats old or young in regards to other peoples definition of "new players".My activity in the forum over the past 3 years or so has somewhat been *subdued* and to an extent..RARE! (I also have not believed in creating alts too as I deem it as cheating by making yourself look good but eventually get found out and look ever worse).

Ox, i don't want to argue about this reputation because it sounds like a million other similar and just as awful suggestions. One need only read a few threads to figure out who the bad eggs are.

For example: If Barach Obama walks into a mosque in NYC, everyone will like him, and think he has a good reputation.

If Barach Obama walks into a room filled with white supremacists... well, you good the idea.

@Genghis Agreed, that is what I was trying to say. It'd be pointless to implement a system that could easily be broken, when it doesn't take long to find the "bad eggs" as you put them.

@Tyrion Perfect example for what Genghis was saying, thanks for posting!

I agree. We need to get rid of liberal censorship and other liberal hostility on the forums.

I doubt the tools to moderate effectively exist. A lot of message boards at the very least have a mechanism for reporting offensive content. That alone drastically reduces moderation workload.

The boards could use a lot of work in general, but the priority has always been the game. I can recall only minor changes made to the board in the past five years.

Ultimately this "reputation" system would just another victim of Murhpy's law.

You want to fix the level of hostility in threads? Simply shun those who are overly hostile. Case closed.
