I didn't want to discuss this in shout box, as rep talk is forbidden, so i taught id post it here in suggestions, if its out of line, or in wrong section feel free to move/remove it.
First of all this isn't rep asking or anything of that sort, my main goal was to reach contributor and i did, and i don't plan to push for anything higher at this point, so i am fine with it.
But looking at my progress towards contributor, when going to rep gained, there was always allot of gray squares, roughly 60% Gray and 40% Green, to clarify, green square means that someone who CAN give rep, gave me rep, and Gray means that someone who can not give rep gave me rep ( mind you, i say gave ME rep, didn't give ME rep, because i'm talking from a personal point of view, it does go for everyone, and it is happened to everyone, and is still happening to everyone).
Now first thing first, i am well aware of MMOwned Handbook, and it clearly states pretty much everything someone needs in there, but the fact is very little people read through it for some reason.
To not make this in a TL;DR kinda thing ill go straight to my suggestion :<<
Suggestion is: To make people with less than 5 posts, unable to even do the +rep (Star under the post) with possible pop up message, something in a line of "You are unable to effectively give rep yet, until you make 5 posts or more"
