Thank you Heather. Gave me another chance to post. I'm attempting to post my 5 to get past beginner stage, but it's important to me that I don't just post randomly. Can you explain what the fund is for? The Haven thing? I'm brand new.Oh, guess you already knew that. I think it will work just fine. I'm also looking for where discussions of the actual books are. I'm not interested in buying any particular "edition". I'm not a bibliophile as much as I just love to read.
Oh! Check it out! It I've got 8 posts! And as I look around I see the star everyone talked about and the thread tools, and view options, very cool! It worked!

Well it looks like you have more than 5 posts, so you should be good to go.
The Haven Foundation fundraiser is a fundraiser the site does annually. There's auctions on some great items, as well as little contests and giveways. It runs from Jan-May I believe. There's a whole sub-forum for it where you can find some more information. http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...ion-Fundraiser Also Bill will probably be by to welcome you
If you're looking for discussions on King's books, Cara Laughs is where you'll find all that. And if you're looking for The Dark Tower specifically head over to Mid-World. You'll find plenty to discuss there.
If you need any more help finding you're way around just let me know

Hi is there any reason I can't post yet? You guys do want new members don't you? If i can't post a thread soon I'll have to find another forum.
You've posted three times. Once you post ten times then they don't moderate your every post.
Once you post five times you can use the PM and most other features.
"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
I thought 5 posts got you full privileges. Never heard of the 10 post feature. Then, you learn something new every day.You've posted three times. Once you post ten times then they don't moderate your every post.

I like the reputation feature on any board because it really helps out. I have noticed though, that once someone gets started into bad reputation, people tend to gang up on them and their rep goes much farther south than they really earned. You can tell because those with bad rep will have TONS of bad rep. There isn't ever anyone with just one or two points of bad rep. Its like people enjoy punishing someone so they just hive mind and they all start making it a point to give that person bad rep.
I think on this site only Moderators (maybe even just RF) can give 'bad' rep. It is possible to leave negative feedback on a transaction that has occurred between members, but I think only positive rep can be given
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
I believe a member can give negative rep, but it cannot be anonymous.
Are you talking about the itrader feature or rep? With rep (star icon) I think it's only a comment and seems to only allow a positive to the poster.

Not the itrader, the rep (staricon).
Try it. Give me a neg rep to see if it works.
Looking into the matter, but apparently you are correct.
Give it a try now (on me).
Should work.
Sweet. Now we have options to give positive or negative rep. You are the man!
I don't think you left a negative. That is the only way to test.Sweet. Now we have options to give positive or negative rep. You are the man!
Give me a negative for not following directions...I will let you know if it worked right.

It seems to work. The notification does not tell you if it's negative or positive rep however the box next to the rep comment is colored grey/slate whereas previous positive rep provided green boxes.
For what it's worth, I preferred it that you could only leave positive rep. It's a nice way to give thanks for something or to express how good you thought a post was. I think negative rep would be open to abuse. Take the recent 'debate' on the PS books, if the option to leave neg rep had been available, it could have got out if hand.
My 2c.

Can a member give themselves a neg. rep. point?
I will try.
Nope

All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
Now why on earth would you want to give yourself "Neg Rep"? You're a good guy, some questionable taste in music, but a nice enough fellow. I'm gonna give you "Pos Rep" to cancel out your "Reputation Suicide"!! LOL

I think you will approve.

I just helped you out by giving neg rep.
Reputation is a great idea.
you just got one from me, LOL
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quick question: I want to give someone rep points but it keeps telling me that I need to "spread it around" a bit first. How many other people must I give rep points to before it will let me give it that person? I must have given out 6 lots of rep points to different people today, but it still telling me that I need to "spread it around" a bit.
