Unlimited daily thanks. That renders 'thanks' near pointless. And nitpicking over where the information is displayed doesn't change the fact that the information is easily available. Why didn't you just install the same system that was on Zoklet?

If you see a lot of importance in limiting the amount of daily Thanks people get, here's the mod right here:

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3898

You can extract the files and code in a new feature that will let an admin specify how many Thanks people can give per day.

Thanks have always been pointless, Slave.  It's not like they're internet currency we can buy stuff with, or anything.  They exist simply to exist, and we accumulate them for the sake of it.

But yeah people are probably going to abuse the unlimited feature.  It's pretty funny :P

Thanks is fun, and as Idio said with no negative rep it shouldn't cause problems.  Never did any harm on Zoklet.

Thanks have always been pointless, Slave.  It's not like they're internet currency we can buy stuff with, or anything.  They exist simply to exist, and we accumulate them for the sake of it.

People usually promote things they think are worthwhile. You promote that which you think is "pointless". Bearing that in mind, write a 500 word essay that discusses the question 'Am I a silly tit?'.

You don't know how to do it, do you? Too bad I'm not here to fix your problems. That's why you have (in your case, lots of) staff.

Even Equanimity appreciates the potential flaw. Maybe he can help you.

Shut the hell up SotB and DaGuru. You two are such hardasses that take the internet too seriously, and you're old, which makes it even worse!

But you do seem to love complaining about them so much.

At least you haven't denied you have problems. Maybe there's some hope for you after all. That aside Arnox, the only thing that matters is that what I say can be justified; if you can sensibly explain why it isn't then I'll have nothing left to say.

And if you don't like being the person with whom the buck stops then why did you set up a website and invite the Totse/Zoklet crowd in? If you thought the outcome was going to be just like totse2, only with you in charge, then I think by now you've realized that was a mistake.

To Zek, get over the fucking kittens man.

To RisiR, you'll always be my favourite hater.

To -SpectraL, you're one of the only people here who can insult Arnox without ramming it down his throat.

To Arnox, fuck you.

Not really. The ability of a regular user to rectify the decisions of an admin is essentially zero.

Wait for Arnox to try and use this specific example, re: thanks limit, to argue why the above statement is generally incorrect.

Zoklet's thanks looked better because it was more noticeable but I guess this will have to do for now.
