What I'm suggesting is a way to distinguish players who post great topics or great replies here in the forums.

By adding a method of "thumbing up" a player (and NOT their posts) players can accrue a sort of honor system, which will allow all of us to know who's helpful and active in the community!

Interesting idea, preferably ppl should vote, in order for the Dev team to consider it being added to the game. So more votes means more interest for that to be strongly considered by the Dev team 

Well this is strictly for the forums.

But we could have an upvote system for multiplayer games too.
