Good Post/Bad Post Mod
Description
This Mod will add post voting to your forum in a user-moderated fashion. The outcome is a bit of help to the forum moderators, with the nice extra that it resembles democracy a little. It gives members and moderators a general idea of who's a worthy poster and who isn't.

Version 2.0.4a (installer updated) - December 13 2010
Russian admins should redownload and reinstall this mod if they installed v2.0.4 before. The installer fixes the broken language strings.
Version 2.0.4 - December 11 2010

• Now supporting SMF 2 RC4.
• Added: Russian and Russian UTF-8 translations.

Version 1.1.3 (installer updated) now supporting SMF 1.1.12.

Features
The following features are supported in SMF 1.1.x and SMF 2 RC3+:

• Post voting, either up or down. One vote per post per member.
• Posts voted below a given number are hidden. ("Bad posts")
• "Respect" is displayed for each member both in posts and in profile. Respect is the sum of all received post votes. (Pseudo Karma system)
• Members choose to either hide Bad posts, or grey them out, or none and display them normally.
• Members may view hidden posts.
• New statistics tracked: Top 10 Post Voters & 10 Most Respected members.
• Toggle post voting by board.
• Customizable: Membergroup permissions include "Vote a post", and "View hidden posts". Bad post hiding/greying-out/bypassing are also theme settings.
• Configurable settings: The post-hiding score, toggle Respect display and toggle new Stats display.
• Works either with or without Javascript enabled (includes AJAX post voting).

New in GP/BP v2.0!
SMF 2 RC3+ installations also support these features:

• Option: disable negative votes.
• Option: Minimum post count required to vote.
• Toggle "Messages of the week", a list of the top voted messages of the last days placed at the Info center.
• Admin tools: powerful vote search feature. Edit votes, post scores, member's Respect values. Recount totals.
• Admin info: All GP/BP actions taken at the Administration panel are now logged. (Requires "Moderation, Administration and User Logs" enabled at the Core features to view logged actions.)

A note to SMF 1.1.9+ Admins
The mod version for SMF 1.1.9+ is currently and will remain effectively at GP/BP v1.1.3 (without features from following updates). It was released as a legacy version in simpathy to the SMF 1.1.9 Admins, but support will only be provided in the case that a new SMF 1.1.x version breaks it.
If you want to install this mod for SMF 1.1.x, please download GP/BP v1.1.3. GP/BP 2.0+ does NOT support SMF 1.1.x installations.
