    Resolved [RESOLVED] no disapprove option

    I haven't visited the site very often since I stopped working on my game but I just noticed that when I went to rate someone's post there was no disapprove option. Not that I was going to disapprove but I just noticed it. This was in the general pc section so perhaps they don't have it there?
    [vb5 & starting to move to vb2008] I appreciate the help I get from everyone. Thank you.

    Re: no disapprove option

    We decided to remove that feature since some people abused it, and also because there are other ways such as the Report Bad Post option to handle bad posts.

    Re: no disapprove option

    I am able to see a "I disapprove" option in that forum.

    It does seem to be working differently now. Before it was a popup form with only ht eapprove option. Now it redirects to a second page with both positive and negative reppings. This is in all forums with the "Rate me" link.

    Re: [RESOLVED] no disapprove option

    Reputations were tweaked a while back. Regular members cannot leave negative reputations. Power Users, moderators, super moderators, and admins can leave negative reputations.

    If you find a post that you think warrants a negative reputation rating, then talk to a moderator.
