Mitch Reputation 1.7.4

Mitch Reputation — A Real Reputation System for XenForo

• Most reputation systems stop at “likes.”
• Mitch Reputation goes further.

This add-on introduces a powerful, explainable, and extensible reputation engine built entirely on XenForo core data — no third-party dependencies, no black-box scoring.

Instead of a single opaque number, Mitch Reputation calculates reputation from multiple activity sources, applies intelligent scaling, assigns visible tiers, and keeps a full history of how each user’s reputation changes over time.

How reputation is calculated

Reputation is calculated automatically using a weighted combination of core XenForo signals:

• Reactions received
• Message count (with diminishing returns)
• Days registered (with diminishing returns)
• Trophy points
• Warning points (penalty)
• Manual admin adjustments

Each source can be enabled, scaled, capped, or disabled entirely.

Smart by design

• Diminishing returns prevent message spam or age inflation
• Tiered scaling keeps reputation meaningful long-term
• Transparent breakdowns show exactly where points come from
• No hidden math — admins can always explain the score

Reputation tiers

Users are automatically assigned a reputation tier based on their score:
New

• Bronze
• Silver
• Gold
• Elite
• Legend
• Mythic

Tiers are displayed visually and can be styled independently.

Reputation history

Users can view a full reputation history timeline, showing

• What changed
• When it changed
• Which source caused it
• How the total score was affected

Admins can always answer: “Why did my reputation change?”

Admin tools

• Manual reputation adjustments with reasons
• Per-user reputation explain page
• One-click rebuild for individual users
• Background bulk rebuild job for all users
• Automatic rebuild triggers when relevant stats chang

Performance & safety:

• All heavy work runs in background jobs
• No template hacks or global CSS pollution
• Fully compatible with XenForo 2.3+
• Designed to survive upgrades and large communities

Core-only, future-ready:

Mitch Reputation uses only XenForo core data by default.
Its modular source system makes it easy to expand later (reactions given, thread creation, etc.) without rewriting the engine.
