Add warning to former Ubers (Now L33ts) +1 repping users they already repped - SIM-2502833 - Sep 6, 2025
Hi. This one is simple.
In my case, I was uber at one point in the past. I repped some people during this period, and sometimes I forget about this, they will change their name, or what have you.
When I go to rep them again, sometimes I will overwrite my previous rep with a plus one, so my new rep actually decreases their popularity.
A warning should be provided to users who were once group members, uber, or other account statuses that allow higher reps that they have already repped this member, and their new maximum rep rating will actually decrease this user's reputation.
Obviously you can say people should be more attentive, and while true, if the mistake is made you have permanently decreased another user's rep on accident with no recourse. And in the case of uber, part of what you are paying for is the ability to add more rep to users you interact with, even if you don't have this ability permanently.

When you got to rep someone that you've already repped the prompt window changes. It changes to "update your rep" and will show your previous rep reason as well.

I see, in that case, perhaps just add a snippet showing the amount of your previous rep?

It also shows that already. The previous amount you gave them is auto populated above the reason.

Wow, I must be tripping, or it was an update after I last made this mistake. Thank you, closing thread.
