Kudos points (or something like that...)
If there's already a way to do this, just point me in the right direction.
I'd love a way of giving "kudos" points to members in my forum. For me, it wouldn't need to be anything more than a rolling point score that you could either add to by clicking a link on a user's profile, somewhere on a post (like the Thankful People extension) or both.
Another feature of this, though not 100% necessary, would be the facility to display who those "kudos points" came from - probably as a list on the user profile page - like the user's role history. The points themselves could also be displayed on the user profile page, or perhaps as a number in parentheses next to a user's name? (that's probably much more complicated...)
On the one hand, it'd be nice just to be able to give visible kudos between users. On the other, I'm going to be using Vanilla as a forum for young writers, and a kudos system like this could be used as the basis of a rudimentary grading system.
Finally (particularly with the youth forum in mind), it might also be useful for users (admins/tutors) of a certain level to be able to take points away.
Would this be useful for anyone else?

@ Vincent - thanks for pitching in! I haven't quite got my head around developing for Vanilla, but I'd be more than willing to help test. Let me know what you need...
now you can buy for a online buddy a present with your points plus you get the ability to post a message below (under your present) to give a reason or a hint to your present...
all presents are displayed in a subpage of the userprofile. and there is also a second "giftshop" subpage in your profile.
still hafta do this gnu thing first, but first of all i have to get my forum up and running and at least bugfree.
probably after then
