New feature

[jimnyc]

If you look at the bottom of the board by the stats you will see a new bar listing the top 5 reputations on the board. I'm going to see if I can tweak it a bit since it's biased towards mods! Admittedly, the default code for rep points is more favorable towards mods and admins, so they'll likely gather points faster and stay at the top.

Don't fix it! It reads "Top Repulation"
Ok wait, make it read "Mod Repulation".
Now what's a Repulation?

LOL, good catch!

*fixed

I can't read Mod Repulation... I'm on that list too!

Oh, "that" list.

Jim, is there any way to make mods/admins ineligible for that list?

How are mod rep points different than regular rep points? How are our points more favorable?

Off the topic...

What happened to the little "USMB Moderator" badges that used to appear on the mods' posts? Made it very easy to identify the moderators. Or maybe that's why we got rid of them?

They're not. I'm just saying, taking the mods out of the running for the Top 5 Reputations would make it seem less unbiased.

Yeah! That disappeared along with the "New Posts" info...

Jim says they are...see jim's post at the top.

There are a few options that unfortunately I can't, or don't know how, to control:

1- How many reputation clicks can a user give over each 24 hour period? Administrators are exempt from this limit. Currently set to 10

2- How many different users must you give reputation to before you can hit the same person again? Administrators are exempt from this limit. Currently set to 10

 

[jimnyc]

And I didn't even notice until posting just now that this only applies to Darin and myself, not moderators.

Unfortunately, it's only a global option, so it's all or nothing.

They apparently weren't transferrable after the upgrade. The future version will have the ability to implement this once again.

Yeah! That disappeared along with the "New Posts" info...

Lost with upgrade as well, and I plan on implementing it once again.

Well I knew those things! I though maybe we got more per click and stuff.

Yeah - I knew it only applied to admins and above; figure that out about a week after getting the position and junk.

noticed. I know that I'm limited in rep given out. Seems that mods should not have privileges taken away, because we help out the board.

Thanks for providing the forum to discuss issues!

If you look at the bottom of the board by the stats you will see a new bar listing the top 10 reputations on the board.

changed

 

[jimnyc]

And I'm not even in the top 10.

I doubt I'd even make the top 50!
