Really? I don't care to be notified about the forum's iPad software at all, but I'll be fine with once and not five or six times.
 
The instant refresh thing is a definite no. We'll have to look into a way to add the youtube option.

Keeping/removing the rep system was put to a vote several times. Keeping it has always won out.

We'll revisit the reputation system when we upgrade to the latest version of vBulletin.

I am not saying we get rid of the rep system. This is the only vB forum I am a part of that does not let you see the name of the person repping you. Why is it anonymous?

Also, just curious why the auto-refresh is a no?


Thanks.

Could you please change the forum so it doesn't ask if you want to d/l the iPad app 5 times in a row? I don't mind there being 1 question, but 5?

Well, this is a suggestions thread, not a Q and A thread. So if we don't answer immediately or at all, rest assured your concerns are still being read.

With regards to the iPad notifications, that's got to be some bug w/ the code that we are required to include to be compatible w/ the applications. It should only run once if you have cookies enabled and not clearing constantly, and the last time I checked on the problem I couldn't find any apparent issues with the coding.

So, I'll look into it again when I get the chance, but it's obviously much harder to test for these errors when none of us admins even have iPads. :p (though if someone wants to send me one for the good of the boards I'd appreciate it). I'd just stress making sure you have cookies fully enabled.

Sorry bym, I had looked into this a while ago and thought I had figured out the issue, but apparently it didn't work if it is still prompting you.

I'll take a look again and see what I can do.

Chris, the auto-refresh thing just isn't something we want to include on the site. It's one more thing we'd have to support in case it breaks. If you want to auto-refresh, download Opera and set it to auto-refresh every 30 seconds.
 
I just want to throw this out there one more time. Anonymous rep is the worse idea in the world. I am not saying we get rid of rep. We just need to not have it anonymous. This is the only forum I am a part of that does not tell you who the person was that repped you. It has to just be a simple setting change.

What is the thinking behind keeping it anonymous?
 
Why do you want to know who sent you neg rep?

Because I think it's pretty fucked up that people can just neg rep someone without signing it like a little pussy. I got neg-repped for saying 'Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!' today just to give you an example.
 
So how would you act differently if you know who sent it?

I would not act any differently. I am sure they would, though. I am willing to bet at least 50% of neg rep would not be given if rep was not anonymous.

I disagree. I think much of the neg rep would just end up on the boards anyway.

If changing this system wouldn't change your behavior, why sweat it?
