    It doesn't just show the entire code posting?

    Oops, didn't realize you'd updated that. Last time I'd checked, it only showed a box that you had to navigate with a scrollwheel or middle mouse button.
    Just Google It. √

    That minimum post length thing is annoying. I couldn't just post "SoulSeek." in a thread, I had to add useless verbage after it. Can't we bump it down to something more reasonable (I assume it's at 10 characters now?), like 3? 4?

    what does this reputation thing even do? some jerk just came along and put some bad rep on me now it's telling everyone i'm a psychopath, be it true or not. I think it should be disabled too

    Ahhh man, two people have given me positive comments but given me a disapproval, assuming a black box is negative... Is there a glitch in the thing? (Xterria, supposedly you're one of them. Is that true?)

    uh..*blush*..yeah. I gave you some positive rep, seriously. Wait, if it's switched, does that mean everyone loves me? (-20 rep pts)

    Yeah, but someone earlier gave me a positive comment and a positive rep too (assuming green box == good)

    You know you can disable the rep thing for your profile in the user cp options

    There are plenty of safe guards to prevent rep wars....and the system isn't bugged...if you have a neg rep Xteria it's because someone gave it to you - check out their comments to see why.

    Hmm, I checked out the rep popup again (when you click on "add to rep"). It appears that you might need to actually click on the positive radio button before it counts as positive. Because if you click on it the first time, it actually 'pushes' in, and any subsequent clicks will not push it in unless you deactivate it by clicking on negative and then clicking again. This suggests that it wasn't really 'activated', even though it was selected by default. Of course, this is just speculation (I'm running IE 6.0.2600.xxx.xx.xx..x.xxxxxxxxx.x.xxxx, on WindowsXP).

    Running Opera...I just tested your theary Hunter (using some admin tools so I could be precise) and you do not have to click the approve button. It is the default because we'll assume that you want to say good things about people!

    *doh* there goes that theory Actually, oddly enough, the 2 black-rated-but-positive comments seemed to have no effect whatsoever on my rep. I had 10 points originally, I believe, then someone gave me a green box boosting it up to 20, and then now after the 2 black boxes it's still at 20. Also, I'll stick a pic of what it looks like in IE at the bottom of this post...
