    reps FAQ section

    i think the reps section in the forum FAQ should be updated to show the current status of RobDog888's current rep power.

    Re: reps FAQ section

    I'll agree with that request! But anything dealing with reputations or the FAQ requires an Admin like Martin to make the update.

    Re: reps FAQ section

    and that would be Tuesdays, after tea. ????

    I used to get a lot more PM's for help, when I was a top poster.

    Too many people look at other things, causing me to get way too many!

    Re: reps FAQ section

    The FAQ is to illustrate an example and not to show 'reality'. We can leave it as it, otherwise, in another month we will be asked to update it again... and again... and again...

    Sorry.

    Brad!

    Re: reps FAQ section

    I meant that if there was a list in the FAQ of people to bug, that they would get bugged. Noobies see GEMS, and PM the person that they think can help them. I've been getting a lot less PM's asking for help.

    Merry Christmas to all, and have a Happy New Year!

    stating the obvious....

    Hopefully all of our power posters are redirecting people back to the forums for posting their questions and thus getting answers. That way everyone can benefit from both the questions/answers.

    I personally like that "early graphic" of RobDog back in his salad days...

    I can barely remember when he had only those 400+ glorious beacon of light points

    Now that he's so splendid to behold it's almost hard to see him

    Re: reps FAQ section

    I think Brad is right that we dont want to be updating it all the time and its not about showing current levels. The only thing I would like to see is a image without last years "snow" which some members thought looked like flying popcorn.

    How about the next time there is an addition or update we can change the image to a nicer version of it?

    Wasn't that your pop-snow from last year on that vintage picture of my boys making pancakes

    BTW - in that other thread about adding smilies - I think that "worship" image could be your next signature addition!

    Yes it was. But I have been really fortunate enough to have had such a great run so far. So if the image stays its no biggie, only would be nice to have it looking nicer.

    I think I have a little too much in my signature and am working on reorganizing it soon.

    What "worship" image?
