    The "add to reputation" button only shows up next to the edit button of my posts.

    Yeah, like mentioned above me.

    I still wish we had tiny avatars next to our names though.

    Yup, same here.


    This is an exciting feature though and just what we needed.

    Thank you Clutch, R2K, and all the other mods!

    I like the positive only portion, it makes it like leveling up. If you had negative values added, the D&D would dry up.....

    I would change the icon though.....from the +/- dealy bobber. Maybe something that is more representative......that tells the rater, that if you like the post, click here etc?

    On the original skin, I get the Add Feedback option on everyone. On the dark skin, I get it on no one.

    I am using the original skin and I only get it on myself...maybe Clutch is slowly adding it to the Crew first, to make sure it works.

    What are the consequences? Is there a set standard people need to acheive to first start a thread?

    Sounds good,

    Everyone who remembers the GARM back a few years remembers alot of quality basketball analysis and discussion... that and the insiders had me lurking often before I joined.

    You can't vote for yourself. It's showing you that you have 1 reputation point. Everyone has 1 reputation point to start out.

    Posting feedback (reputation) is not enabled yet ... I'm working on the variables before I turn it on. I want the scales to be balanced. This can be very helpful, but it can get out of hand because people will try to abuse it. This will basically be a trial period -- I'm going to let people know that they shouldn't fall in love with their rep because we may start over from scratch in a month (or scrap it altogether) if it doesn't work as intended or creates more problems than it solves ...

    Why are some people James White and others are Kyle Lowry. Are contributing members start out higher? Not that it matters just curious if it hasn't been enabled yet?

    Some of the mods have probably tested it out and rated a few posts...

    I'm curious to see how it shakes out. Thanks for all the hard work on the rep feature Clutch.

    I hope this can eventually help limit people's posting abilities. I agree with all the feedback about GARM. Other than my Magic Number thread, I pretty much skim it and make a few snarky comments here and there. It's come to resemble D&D in so many ways, which is just the same viewpoints being hashed out again and again and again.

    I do like NBA Dish for a bit of intelligent conversation about the rest of the league.

    Hangout is my favorite overall. Going back to the OP, it's probably due to my age (36). The conversations are usually smart and overwhelmed with posts. I feel like having a beer with most of the folks in Hangout.

    The feature is working now for contributing members... you can start "approving" posts that you feel are quality, which adds reputation points to that user.

    I've changed the settings quite a bit, but I'm confident it will be a feeling out process... they will need to be changed again from time to time.


    I know you're joking, but that's exactly the type of stuff I'll be looking for.

    We are all starting out as James White.

    So I have a 19 as my points... so what exactly does that mean. I give more kudos to someone than say another poster with 15 points?

    It really shouldn't matter right now.... Let the whole thing work a few months before worrying.

    That said, I will say I know I'm grateful that negative reps aren't allowed. I know I'm one who has a lot of disdain here.
