But i do mind the extra click. It used to be so much easier, i could access it from anywhere and it would tell me all the forums with new posts.
This new way i have to continually go back to the...

I'm still grumpy that i don't get "My Favourite Forums" anymore...

I never ever go to the main page, i start my visit at forum 26 every time. Its what i have as my bookmark. Then if My Favourite Forum shows that there are posts to be read in other forums i will go...

EDIT: I'm an idiot, just worked out what everyone was talking about. Never mind me, nothin' to see here, move along :P

New button? I dont see anything new :(

But im missing that favourite forum thing quite a lot... I used it to see if i needed to visit a forum or if i had read all the posts in it anyway.

I want...

Thats me! :P

I'm a bit confused.. what would be the point of such a thing?

Yup, it works with mIRC :S Thats weird

Hmm.... I'll download a client and try again

Ah, Thanks guys.. I have been using the Mibbit client that you can find in my sig.. Not sure if that could be the problem or not though :S

Hi,
I thought it would be nice to go on IRC today and see if anything is happening. But i went in and entered my username "Paul Thompson" as my name and halfway through logging on it went like...

Ancient Dragon, new favourite golden oldie :P

Really though, this whole thread just sounds a lot like "he said", "she said". I havent heart an argument like this since primary school :S

Yeah.. im just saying a bot could be a lot more a nuisance if it was able to report 3 posts a second or something. That would clog up the system. So it gives the admins time to reel in the bot before...

It could help stop it flooding with bot posts or something though.. Otherwise they could make loads.. It could overwhelm the admins :P

Cost a lot of money? What for? The server that ran the movie bandwith or something?

I must say i agree. I will do the same in the python forum.. If vegaseat is already there, i needn't bother.

:( No its not just you.. Thats a bummer. I liked that

Yeah i dont much like them either. People who have been here a while know what the buttons are for. As well the newbies probably arent going to need those buttons anyway.. i doubt they will be...

Discussion groups was started in the previous update about a month or two ago.

Personally i dont use them, there is no one i particularly want to partake in. But im sure it's a good idea for some...

Thanks a bunch dave

Yeah, i heard about that :P I just use paulthom12345 for all of my usernames, but seeing i am actually doing something here rather than just popping in and out i thought it would be nice to change :P...

Hi,
I have been here for about a year and a half. I originally was only going to stay for just one question but fell in love with the community. So i would like to change my username to something...

I think what JBennet meant was that he was already perma-banned. So whenever he comes back he gets automatically banned again. If i understand correctly.

Mmm, i guess in the end its only rep :P

Yeah, im not so sure i like the new system. I dont see why someone as useful to daniweb as MosaicFuneral is should only have the same amount of rep power as someone who has only been here for a...

Yeah actually that is really confusing. Just looking around profiles i stumbled upon SoulMazer (http://www.daniweb.com/forums/member407656.html) they have a +2/-1 as their rep power, even though they...

Soo, dani. Any chance of having that system they have at Dev Shed Forums?

Yeah thats a bit messed up. With my rep of 180 i have +2/-1?! :S

Yeah i must say i agree with Vernon. I think it would be great if we were able to change the amount of rep we gave.

To make it easy, you could have a default value that automatically went on to...

Im pretty sure that was because of complaints dani was getting that a thread could be pulled down by a stupid post.

I agree with Niek_e its just a number. Nothing to get too fussed about. :)

EDIT: yeah i know this is kinda a turn around from the start of the thread ;)

You can also just press escape ;)

Well i do have one idea, that is we need to educate people as to what it is. I know that a lot of people dont come to the community feedback place. I didn't even know it existed for a while.

So is...

mmmm.. I understand what everyone is saying, and i agree it would be great. And i do upvote if i believe it was a good point. But i just dont like the fact that a new person can come over and down...

Yeah. i have just been noticing people putting things down for absolutely no reason. Constantly as well, in the Python forum every thread was -1, and only the first post had been voted on.

So...

I have noticed in the Python Forum there is nothing but -1's on all of the threads except one.

So what i was wondering is can we limit the amount of down's a poster can do?

For example a...

Okay, first off. I have noticed that if i 'up' an answer that was at -1 it suddenly goes to 1. Does that mean my up vote is worth 2? Or does it just skip 0?

As well, is this separate from rep? or...

Ooh exciting. I'm liking these site changes :)

Ah happygeek, i knew you wouldn't forget me :)

So is there any way to tell (apart from actually checking the threads) if your posts are being up/down rated?
