I thought those green squares were related to post count. I didn't realize it was for rep. until I saw a post where someone had a red square.

Etc...

Theoretically those options can be customized.
Now that would be a hoot... I like it! Time for someone with influence to get on the horn to Ken!

I had to look it over a bit - I see it now. Must not have been "Instantaneously Gratified"...

I should send a letter cursing out the local newspaper classifieds for not listing the job I want in this area. Ya think?

The Changing of reputation description was in the process of being done after some user's commented on it.

I'm sure I mentioned in this UF&S forum a few months ago.

I may not have seen it. Or did and forgot...

I've been trying to give them out, and hopefully I'll be out of the negative soon.
BTW, sorry to whomever I annoyed.

Doc,
Thank you for the comment. If I understand the question correctly there is a way to see what people leave in your comment box if they leave comments. I just saw what you said. When you go to usercp to check your rep points there will be a box to the right that will contain any comments left by the person who left you rep points. Again it will only show if they left a comment.

Seventyseven.

May I suggest to turn on your messaging systems.

You have blocked people out from sending you messages.

The FTE messaging system is Very Secure so you have nothing to worry about.

Update:
I just received an explanation of why he gave me a negative rep about my Official Want Ad thread .

Here is what he says:

Ouch-Reputation.
Does it matter that I was just replying to the innapropriate post? I guess I'll ignore those in the future.
I guess he didn't realize who I was.

That's the way I had it figured....He had to be a new guy that didn't know anything about the site to give you negative feed back.
The other side of the coin....is in my opinion if your going to give someone a little red square....you need to have your facts together and know for sure what your saying is correct.

I'm waiting to hear what the inappropriate part of the post was.

I doubt he looked in other chapters to see that they have them as well.
Reason for the the thread in question.

For allowing residents to post a need for something into a thread in the are of where you live, that doesn't fall off the first page into oblivion because it is stuck to the top of the page.


To me ,It doesn't make one bit of sense.

Further to the discussion the user involved has noted he was confused with the system.

When users like this take the time to discuss situations, things usually turn for the better.

This user will in turn be given rep because he stepped up the plate & realized he did something wrong in what he did

IMO, User's like this should be commended.
