Reputation Rewards
Brad Copp
ReputationRewards is built to encourage positive community behaviors by adding an in-game reputation system to your Rust server with a clean 3-column UI, built-in reward shop, and rank progression.
Players can reward each other for being Helpful, Friendly, or Skilled, earning spendable reputation points that can be redeemed instantly for configured items. As players gain reputation, they climb ranks and can trigger configurable server commands on rank-up for additional rewards or other triggers (kits, mail, permissions, VIP perks, etc.).
