Aww i cant wait for thread tags.

These will be member inputed tags correct? If they are a word of advice from experience with it on another forum limit everybody to 2 tags per thread. Otherwise it just gets ridiculous.

sticks out like a sore thumb that you cannot even ignore
it's not supposed to be ignored (technically).
you determine if you want to ignore it. the forum is still what it is.

like i said...this is not the final look/feel. we are working out the kinks and will perhaps tweak the colors (taking your suggestion) and make it work.

nothing is perfect at the first go at it. we are always making improvements on the site.

I see no blue bar............

Quick question(s)

how do you give points?

how do you lose points?

There should be a thing in the avatar area for giving points to that member, thats how rep. goes on most threads

Wait, how come n00bs get achievements and crap, but I don't? I call shenanigans! Where's my 1-year-anniversary sticker? Why don't paying members get an instant 10000 points or something? Lame!

I feel like I've spent an unhealthy amount of time on these forums, but I'm showing no activity..? Bizarre. I feel like this stuff is going to kick your poor MySQL server in the *****. Logging page views? Wow.

Edit: Okay, as soon as I post, I get some achievements.

I will hand it to you: it's much smoother now.

Now that I gave you a compliment can I have an award? Perhaps "most banned member in history on any forum ever"?

I gained 22 points then lost 19 points. Am I doing something wrong? I see DaNY's thread for points earned but not lost...(except for infractions)
