Hey, Site Admin / Owner

Just a suggestion and maybe it has been brought up before, Dunno, didn't read all of the threads in the forum.

Anyway, the ability to give Reputation points or like a post.

I have read a bunch of posts that I have found very good by some of the members and instead of replying just to say "good post", the ability to like a post or give that member rep points would be awesome.

I believe they decided not to do that so there wouldn't be any competition among the techs.

 

[Tomshawk]

WOW, now that's a scary revelation.

Oh well

Thanks for the reply

 

[Flight Sim Guy]

I'm not real sure if that's the only reason, so wait until someone else replies.

The idea has been brought up several times under several different managements . . the short story is that the disadvantages outweigh the advantages

You can use the star system in Rate Thread.

the only disadvantage I can see is like "Flight Sim Guy" stated, Competition, which I could understand if people were getting paid to be here, but, with it being a completely Volunteer thing, I guess I just dont get it, but, hey, thats just me.

Eitherway, I enjoy it here and will continue to contribute when and where I can. I'll just post Great post when I see one.

This is good for an exceptionally good thread, especially one that stumps people or causes a nice debate but it doesn't honor the person that gives a great reply.

I'll just post Great post when I see one.

And when you get a honest Thank you ! You will fully understand why these great people keep helping

 

[Flight Sim Guy]

I guess we like it the way it is and don't want to chance messing it up. We're glad to have you, and don't be afraid to make more suggestions.

 

[Tomshawk]

OK, You asked for it. LOL

One more coming up

 

[Flight Sim Guy]

Yep, they aren't doing it for the fame.

 

[joeten]

We have seen it on other forums and it gets childish over who gets the most, much nicer for someone to say thanks with no pressure to do so, and if they don't well you just move on,there are always nice folks around who will

 

[Flight Sim Guy]

As usual, Joe explains it better than anyone.

 

[joeten]

I think you may flatter me to much

 

[Old Rich]

Thanks . .

 

[Glaswegian]

I think you may flatter me to much

Probably, but we enjoy doing it...:grin:

 

[Flight Sim Guy]

Yep. :grin:

Rep points would never work. The OP would get all the points because everybody knows it's not important who gives the right answer, it's only important who asks the right questions

 

[Flight Sim Guy]

Good argument, Albert. :thumb: I agree; you can't have a good answer unless you ask the right question.

Thanks for me is seeing Solved added to the thread - but when you've managed to help someone, they usually say "Thanks" anyway.
