    I KNOW that I read about this here...and now I can't find it.


    Can we/do we do the reputation point thing on this site?


    I would love to give a good rep point to a post but can't find the handy button...

    Since I don't even know what that is, I'm going to assume we don't do it here.

    We're not actually using the reputation points on this board Kes...but it might be something we implement in the future.

    Thanks Matt and no worries.

    I just wanted to compliment some posters and *thought* I remembered reading about it in the FAQ.

    I was on a board once with rep points but they were abused and died a miserable death.

    I've been looking for the button as well
    Think rep points are great tbh, both giving and recieving!
    if it's green of course, but unlike most other forums I go to, I don't think there will be many people here giving red rep. people are too nice here

    isnt anything beyond the basic stuff like pictures/ profiles and emoticons for a forum just rather pointless?
    I mean even "beambucks" r kinda silly, why continue piling on pointless features?

    I don't consider them pointless, it is nice to have a distraction.

    Like I said, beambucks are designed to use in the casino.

    Rep points is a nice way of saying "nice post" (or something like that) without actually taking the thread off topic by writing in it.
    I'm a sucker for strange little features, even though I don't use anything other than the forum itself here

    I guess the pointless is based on perspective. If you don't use them, they're pointless. If you do, they aren't.

    Since they're silly could you donate the 5,000 I donated to you back to me so I could donate them to someone who doesn't think they're silly? Thanks.

    Isn't anything other than plain text pointless for a forum?
    As long as a "feature" doesn't slow or inhibit page loading-yet provides some with joy-yet no one with pain, why worry?

    Kes, could you maybe mean thread ratings? I'm thinking that might be what you (or your twin) remember seeing. There's a bar on the top of each thread that has a little dropdown and you can select from 1 to 5 stars (5 = excellent, 1 = terrible).

    Going to ship this off to the clearing now.
