The problem is the value placed on rep given by new - or at least relatively new - members. Reputation is defines as: The established community members should be the ones driving one's reputation....

Layout wise, yes. In terms of content, no. And I very much like it that way, kthx.

And may such plans never come to be... :P

If I were to make a list, it would largely be a subset of John's. That said, here's my list:
* Posting Games
* Lack of interesting content in the Geek's Lounge (I mean, I like the idea of an...

useful++, though it's because they've improved over time. I do like them now :)

Does that mean that those of us who've already paid get an extension? :D

Also, is there an easy way for subscribers to tell when their subscription ends?

Haven't been around for a little while, liking the new menus though. One request: is it possible to make them fully expand? Having subforums listed is nice, but usually I go from, say, the Geek's...

Is there a way to report bad blog posts? It's currently a very rare occurrence, but I couldn't find one easily (hence my recent thread about a spam blog).

rucdkey18's blog is just spam. didn't read it, but I'd guess it's not within the rules anyways. ;)

Welcome to the Internet(TM) where Trolls(TM) run rampant on open-topic forums.

IMHO this is the better plan. It should be considered unacceptable behavior to leave such messages, whether or not the words show up or the comment is rephrased.

No wonder my Ctrl+- reflex started to kick in today... it was uncomfortably large on my 1280x800, made for too much scrolling. Can we shrink it back a little or have it be a setting? Otherwise...

Most well managed forums will come to you to be a mod, not you going to them. If everyone who asked received the position, well, it'd be chaotic. No offense, but that's just how a lot of places...

lol... like I said I don't use them. :icon_redface:

The new (? I never noticed them before...) icons on the blogs page (http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/) are kinda, well, obscure. Or at least, most of them seem to be, especially the ones for software...

I voted No. I swing through the forum, reply to stuff, check it when I'm done to see if someone was replying while I was doing other stuff, then leave for a while.

You're missing the point.

Reputation is to demonstrate you achievements, not your efforts. If you help a lot of people, it'll be visible by your post count (with some obvious outliers). If your...

The point of reputation isn't for thanks. Reputation is a meter that shows how you've been recognized by the other established members at Daniweb based on the value of your contributions. Noobs who...

The problem with that is that somebody could write a bot to create new accounts and then rep themselves. It's been discussed before, and I think it's good enough as it is now.

Yeah, I was shocked when Christina had that much left. But, I don't peruse the whole site (only a couple of the forums really), so it's possible I suppose...

Wow, someone actually looked it up! I'm honored :P (yes, that was the intended spelling, whereas many people at first take it to be a typo of "infraction")

Thanks much Dani! :)

Yeah, I get it in IE and Opera, but not FF. Nice find... :-O

works fine on mine (Vista, 2.0.0.5)

Reading through the blogs today, I read two distinct entries that struck me as odd. There were not tech-related, and furthermore it was the first activity by either member on Daniweb. Also, they...

I don't think true and false are keywords in ANSI C either, but it does recognize the difference with a couple keywords:

bool c = false;
int new, delete;


bool cpp = true;
int new, delete;

Well said

I think the rep system is horribly broken by an unfixable human element. It has lost all meaning.

Seems completely unrelated to the forum. I'll help you out though:

Time spent online: Way too much

It shows up as a light pink on my laptop but I can't even see it on my desktop. Oh well, I'm usually on the laptop anyways. And I like it a lot :)

jbennets post reminded me of something else: would it be possible to remove the blank lines or padding or whatever at the top and bottom of [code] blocks? Especially if they have different...

Might you consider putting something in for inline code as well?

Assuming the two colors are meant to emphasize "good" vs "bad", it seems like red and green are the worst you could pick from a usability perspective, if you were to consider color blindness to be a...

I like the keyword highlighting, but I'm also too lazy to type the language so that doesn't work too well... unless each forum had the [code] blocks default to the appropriate language for that...

I'm assuming that Dani isn't trying to remove all color from the site, just to standardize the colors. That is, people will not be able to color their post text, but search results or tagged code...

And here I was getting up the nerve to ask for such a feature. Quite obscure though, I'd never of found it myself...

I'm not fond of the color, but I don't go to that part of the site anyways :P

Hopefully that will happen... hopefully...

Heh, having looked at a few people's rep now, I see the system is almost completely worthless. Oh well, t'was fun while it lasted.

Quite amusing, so see so many negative reps from so few people... :icon_lol:
