starhawk, some general questions

[ed]

i have a few questions and i'm sure i won't be the only person to ask:

1. titles appear to be auto-generated. i'm guessing that it's based upon postcount, which is the only thing i've ever seen dictate such things in other forums.

2. what other things are driven by postcount? unlocking of custom avatars? anything else?

Starhawk it'd be good if you could activate avatars & titles?

[Starhawk]

Ha! I could always refuse to activate them and watch an angry mob form.

:bricks:

I did whip up some postcount-based titles, but under the assumption that nobody would ever use them.

Custom av's and siggies are now enabled. I wonder if it might be a good idea (at some point in the future, after all we Old Crew are safely above the mark) to disable those for brand new users.

Also enabled: a reputation system. Look closely.

And yes I think that would be a good idea for newbies.

I say you withhold them and see how big the mob gets.

[Lugard]

I like the new system so far... lets hope it gets as packed as GE&R was :)

And how does this work?

[wolf_mage]

Well, now we'll know what to do the next time someone pulls a Kensan_Oni...

There's a smiley I need now. It's a cross between the devil smiley and the angel smiley. Anyone know it?

What's the deal with custom avatar sizes? I popped in an old 50x50 avatar but I think I'm seeing some larger ones. A couple of the ones I've used in the past could stand a bit of uncropping, if it's possible, so I am wondering what size avs people are using.

[Kalzazz]

Why is that ed, may I ask?

There's a difference between profile pictures (100 x 100) and avatars (50 x 50).

Ah, so. Good to know.

OK, a newbish question, how do I get my profile picture to appear in my avatar picture space? Because I think I am seeing profile pictures in place of avatar pictures, but I can't seem to get mine to do that.

[Haze]

I noticed that yesterday when I was playing around with avatars, several appear larger than 50x50.

Also with the reputation system is there a way to monitor it so that it's not abused? I ask as I've experienced it where one member took a dislike to another and went berserk giving them neg rep (neither involved being me I hasten to add <g>).

And I'm assuming you can't add to your own reputation 'cos that'd be just egocentric... :th_angelsmiley4:

[LagomorphPrime]

Hmmmmm, karma huh.....

WOOOOKAAAHHHH!! Character assassination!!!

[Rhakir]

Don't quite understand the reputation thing, but that's okay. No big.

Lots of neat new little things I've noticed, like the multiple quoting and whatnot. Nice... =)

[Rhakir]

And I noticed the member's list will not show a name if the person has chosen to cloak... Odd.
