Some Optimization, Also Reputation

[Minish]

The neutral message is up to ten points, I think. As you get more rep, the hover-message becomes more fawning. (It's still visible if you have positive rep at all, since then the rep square becomes green instead of gray; the messages are just calibrated differently.)

Oh! I figured it would show the exact amount of rep. Maybe I like this better instead, then.

But the best recent thing is full stuff in bachuru, wow. It's taking a while to get used to having an actual image to click for quoting. thank you!

The rep thing was a good move!

oh wow i love whatever it is that makes the new posts thing only show new posts (as opposed to just unread stuff that's been there for ages).

I like stuff eventually disappearing instead of sitting for months! Except now things won't even stay for a few hours! It only shows me the most super-recent posts and not ones from like, this morning. Or even from three hours ago. So I keep missing basically every post which kind of defeats the point.

Is this fixable?

(It's showing one from three pm, but not from two pm (it's five now) so I guess around two hours is the timeframe.

Also it doesn't get rid of new posts once I read them! It just turns them non-bold until they get too old. But that's less of an issue or maybe even an anti-issue depending.)

Try using the "Today's Posts" feature and see if you like that better.

Hahaha, the new post thing is a thing I'm enjoying.

Butterfree, whatever you did, it worked! I don't really get 'server's too busy' and when I do, it only lasts for a few minutes.

ok so when you're looking at the rep you have and who gave it and all what does red mean? i thought you couldn't unrep someone

(Rep received shows up in User CP btw)

You technically can if you modify the request you send. I figured nobody would bother, but if this is happening for real, I can add more modification code to make that impossible.

Wait, how? I can't find it anywhere.

(and now I've missed posts from like a week no...)

It's under Quick Links.

Well, just go through all the forums one by one and see if there's anything there you care about, I guess.

Quick Links > Today's Posts

Easiest way to browse all the forums at once. Unlike the "New Posts" button, the threads still show up after you look at them.

In the user CP where it shows your rep and who gave it to you, what does a grey square mean?

I know on someone's profile it means they don't have any, in this context does it mean someone gave me neutral rep or something?

Yeah, I got neutral rep, too. I'm guessing it just a sort of thing to say that they appreciated the thing you said but didn't want to give positive rep or something.

 

[Flora]

it might have been a mod test or something

I don't think so because it wasn't a mod who gave me neutral rep.

 

[Butterfree]

You can't actually give neutral rep. That square is used when the person who gave you rep has a reputation power of zero, i.e. any rep they give doesn't actually affect your reputation total. Everyone is supposed to have the same reputation power (of 1), though, so I've probably set something up wrong.
