The Gopher Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Good. Get rid of the rep system for us. More often abused (like in the cases of HaVoc and Sledge) than used legitly. Link to post Share on other sites
Spedz Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Rep system is currently offline completely. We do not have a reputation system installed at the moment. We will be looking into the updated reputation system for sales post software upgrade. Just for Sale sections only? I mean there's only two types of people I trust, People with Hi)Well deserved)-reps and people with a a Decent (Contributive) Posty which does ironically leave myself out of the equation but it's only because I am willing to trade with people who want to be here and not mere spammer.

Bengali Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 i agree with Spedz that the rep system, while in some cases being just a popularity contest, did help to show who were the more respected members of the community. and id rather take advise from a respected member, than an un respected member with the same post count. Even though Sledge and HaVoC appeared at many times to have had reps given that were abusing the system, id still say that those two earned enough legit ones to warrent the incredibly high amount they had. i liked the rep system, though i disagreed with people getting say 12 neg reps for a single offence, but hey, im not the owner, or even a mod, so i dont know the full extent of the grief it caused. hopefully the sales reps will be back up again soon cos i would be on about +20 again if it was.

Arnie Posted October 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Okay in the process of booking the software upgrade, we've been on hold pending location of artwork to recreate the skin post upgrade, however this has not been forthcoming, so we've decided to go ahead anyway. Oh.. and when I "we.." I mean it was my choice I'll run a backup of the entire forum setup later on, but as a good few hundred gigabyte or so I'll run it later when the load is lower and the userbase is less demanding. I'm now waiting for a date/time that Invision can do the entire software upgrade for us. Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Okay we're now running the latest version of the boards ith the latest gallery and blog setup. I've quickly changed the logo to add our text at the top, but obviously the skin needs more work. We'll get to that later tonight. Please report any wierdness to the usual error page on the forums.

Arnie Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Skins for each user have been set to defaults, as the old skins wont work with the new setup. New themes and looks for hte forums are in the making, but will take a few days to get sorted. Link to post Share on other sites
Connery Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 The snapback code for quotes isn't working. Just thought I'd point that out. Link to post Share on other sites
casey_cole Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Whee! No left bar any more! Looking good Arnie - nice one for the work you've done. CC Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Woo, a new look! Looks biffer :up: Dont know if its reported already but when I click the emoticons icon in the bar above the Quickreply window, the Emoticons window opens but its empty. Minor niggle though Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Emoticons window works here. New skin is coming along, but we have a fair bit to do. Snap back code should work after all the posts have been reworked. The forums are busy doing that at the moment, but it'll take a bit for it to complete that cycle as there's about 1.5gb of data to chew through (it has done 571k or around 1.2milion posts so far).

Rob15 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Don't know if this is a fault with the new thingies, but i've been getting topic subscription notification emails for every post rather than the first new one per topic, something like 60 emails today :s Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Check your control panel and your subscription settings it's all in there. You can change how you get notifications. Link to post Share on other sites
