Message: <blockquote data-quote="Orius" data-source="post: 5143017" data-attributes="member: 8863">I noticed the other day that "Ignore Thread" uses a scale too, so maybe Morrus changed it to avoid overlapping?On one hand, I didn't like the public nature of the comments; I've usually seen them used as private. But avoiding me toos is pretty useful.I think the really active users are on there, I'm lower on the list and it's not that surprising.  I've gotten people looking at my page whose user names I'd never seen before.  What is surprsing is that I've gotten more page views than people like Mouseferatu and the Rouse.  How'd THAT happen?! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />In theory, really.  I've made some fairly constructive posts that only got a few XP here and there, so I'm not sure how much it will help.  Though maybe it's because people were ignoring the system too?Has the limits on giving XP been changed?  I know there was the whole "give to 50 different people" thing going on.  If that's still the same, I think that number is pretty high given how many people regularly use the boards, I know some users, including myself, have been given out proxy XP because some people couldn't.  Also, I'm not sure negative rep is a good idea.  I've seen it used elsewhere, and sometimes it creates unnecessary drama and hostility among board users.  It can be helpful when someone is being offensive, but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble.  I think negative rep is probably best restricted to the board moderators, and probably inflicted when a post needs moderation or if someone crosses the line and gets banned for a few days.I call dibs on wizard, naturally.OOPS, my bad, that's supposed to be M-U. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
