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 change


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.
