    any chance to have those like the old finheaven days?

    i went to buffalosuckwagon.com or whatever their site is :shifty:

    and they had them....they also had "thanks" and "groans" i think that would be a good idea....there is just some posts that deserve a groan....

    but i remember getting tags/gifts/pins whatever they were called for specific things...i had a c2c one and someone got me a beer i think lol....

    anyways, any chance that re-apears?

    We will implement a gifts/banking system. It is already installed but not configured. The post groan hack is probably not something we would do for the reason that Amanda mentioned.

    Glad you're not considering the groan feature. I saw that in action on another board and pretty soon, half the talk was about who groaned about whom. If you got a beef with what I say, tell me and tell me why. People who just groan - like in real life - are cowards. Just my 2 cent, of course.

    Rep works. Posting a thanks gives less rep points than hitting the rep button but you can't do both in the same post. Removing rep works too.

    maybe the system realizes who's giving it...and since your posts are the worst, it won't let you neg rep someone else. :up::tongue2:

    If you give positive rep via thanks or via the rep button, you have to wait until you remove that rep.

    I logged in as you. If you take a look at the screenshot below, you can see that you can give negative rep to Ven. (don't do it though :lol: )

    Are you SURE giving thanks increases rep? If so it must be minute.

    i think it's like 5 thanks to 1 positive rep. positive repping with comments boosts your rep quicker than thanks do. i'm sure celt has the exact numbers on that.

    That's right darlin'. :hi5:

    Giving positive rep by clicking the rep button gives more points than giving thanks but both increase rep points.

    I am not sure bro but what I meant is you may have Java turned off in your browser.

    Is this connected with the "inventory" system?

    How about a "moan" hack I can use to respond to posts with your Summer Glau sig? :groucho:

    rep does not work for me. It has never allowed me to rep anyone, much less bad rep... which is the one "I" really want.:shifty:

    ok.. I updated java, still no love. Same boat as Sick;

    Hey, I've just noticed that it isn't even possible to give you rep. I can rep away with just about anyone, but if I want to rep you, it tells me that I should spread it around instead of giving it to you. Now what exactly did you do to the poor board software, Marty? Calling it names? Sleeping with its wife? Out with it!

    Well, considering that the software actively discourages me from adding to your reputation, you must have done something. It was probably naughty and you don't want anyone to know but you can't fool me!!!! :shifty:

    I've never made an issue of it before so there was no way the webmasters could know I was broke.. maybe, they COULD be laughing their arses off too.. tough crowd. :sad:

    Ven there is a solid chance you are the first to ever try and give me rep, because no one ever complained before.:hi5:

    It works in my browser when I log into yours or Sick's account so I suspect that the problem is related to Internet Explorer. Does it do the same thing if you use Firefox?

    I didn't even know that this feature existed until I saw this thread, so I'd wager the guess that most people simply don't use it ... but now that I do know about it, boy, will I ever disapprove. I'll change my user title to The Dandy Disapprover and disapprove away.
