I like the color blue.



On a more serious note... no buying rep. That just defeats the purpose

Oh we will fight, fight, fight for Iowa State, and may her colors ever fly!

This seems like a really cool new feature.

What can be done with these credits?

I haven't finished all the features that will make the system useful yet but I'll keep working on them and post more about the specific features in the near future.

A program isn't built on one player and it doesn't succeed because of one player, thus a program won't fail if it doesn't get that one player.

Oh, and make a poll - its a good investment if you know what I mean.
And you get credit for each word that you put into a post? So if you don't really have anything worthwhile to say, you can still keep on typing with a hope to build up that large credit bank? I guess I'll have to manage to extend my wit and humor beyond the quick one-liners that I've grown accustomed to typing out.

Do I get extra quote credit by having a quote in my signature block?

Great idea, CF. This new feature will just rock. Or something like that.

Well I have it set to give you 1 point for every word up to 100 words. That can obviously be adjusted if need-be but I thought it would be a great way to help promote longer or more thoughtful posts.

I don't have the signature setup for anything since it doesn't change much and is just a static field for the most part.

A program isn't built on one player and it doesn't succeed because of one player, thus a program won't fail if it doesn't get that one player.

Re: CF Credit System Explained (Part 1)

Well we may need to have a day or two of testing and then resetting of the credits if the stupid posts become a problem. Obviously the feature is supposed to help things but if it does otherwise, we'll have to do something to fix any problems:)

But with the credit-per-word feature, atleast they will be better thought out stupid pointless threads...

Or possibly more rambling Lets hope for the former...





Lets see that was... only 28 words. I'll have to work on that

Oh we will fight, fight, fight for Iowa State, and may her colors ever fly!

Who is Chizek?

And isn't posting your personal thoughts 99% of a message board?

I do see this point and I think some of that will happen, hopefully not too much. If it does happen too often, I'd be all for a feature enhancement or getting rid of it all together.

For the record, it's Chizik.
