[RESOLVED] Cannot give reputation

[matrik02]

I try to give reputation to user who answered my question. Why I got this message "You have given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later."? What the purpose?After 24 hours mybe I forget to give the reputation to the user again.

From our FAQ on Reps

Reputations come with rules. You can only give a certain number of reputation ratings in a single day.

It doesn't state a number, but I think it is 10.

That is put in place so that folks don't get rep happy and start giving our reps to anyone and everyone. I think you may be the first person to have received this message. I can't remember anyone indicating they had received it before.

You can only rate 6 members in 24 hours. You should wait until ( perhaps tomorrow ) to give the reps to the appropriate user - that is also of course if you aren't rating the same user without rating 10 others

[si_the_geek]

You cannot rate more than 6 times in 24 hours (as mentioned in the "spread" section of the FAQ).. the reason for that limit is that we don't want people to go on a "rating spree" giving lots of ratings (either positive or negative), without actually having a proper reason.

The limit could arguably be set higher than 6, but it is very unusual for anyone to have the need to rate than many in a day - as generally each person will only have 2 or 3 threads that are still 'open' and can be answered.


What you could do is make a 'temporary' bookmark/favourite of that post, and come back tomorrow to rate it (then delete the bookmark/favourite).

How to bookmark the thread directly ?I don't find the bookmark button of my post threads?

[Hack]

If you are using IE, with this thread open, click Favorites/Add Bookmark

[matrik02]

Oh, I thought, I choose the bookmark tools from thread I had posted. Thank you.

Actually, what I do usually is click Thread Tools/Email This Page

That way, when I'm done with whatever I wanted to do with that thread, all I have to do is delete the email from my box. That saves me from have to unsubscribe to a thread or delete a bookmark from IE.

zeezee, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
