    Wasn't there a feature in the 'last' board where you could see how many rep points you had left to give out until you ran out?

    Any way we could get it back?

    There was, definitely. It was nice to have but it wasn't as urgent as some of the other things going wrong.

    I personally never even used it.

    I do find it interesting how some people asking for it to be back are expecting the admin to put in work to return a feature that they mainly only use for rep war, especially when they are already breaking rules about it.

    I wasn't here for them, but that sounds like the distant rumblings of rep war.



    I always thought the "Rep Jihad" sounded both funny and awesome.

    Is Azure involved in some rep war we don't know about? :huh:

    Real rep jihadists have no need of such a tool, since they unload their day's maximum on their helpless liberal victims.

    Actually, I liked knowing what I had left, since for some time I would only rep 6 or 7 people and suddenly I'd be out of rep.

    Due to out of control speculation by rep investors and increased demand for rep from the Chinese and Indian rep markets, Wordforge is facing increased prices on rep. Therefore, everyone will be reduced to 20 reps per day vs. the current 30. That is all.

    Indeed. An answer/decision/railing diatribe from those whom hold all the answers™ would be nice.

    If it's a rule not to neg outside the RR, is there a hack admin can put in to prevent negs outside it in the first place?

    It's not against the rules to neg outside the RR, it's against the rules to randomly neg people for no reason (engaging in "rep war") in the other forums.

    That's pretty subjective. I think I know what you mean, though.

    :D - I've gotten overzealous a couple of times. mea culpa, I guess. I've tried to correct it, though.

    Re: How much rep is left?

    At the irresponsible rate the Rep Warriors are consuming it, we will likely have to increase imports from Saudi Arabia. And if TBBS ever gets it, we may even have to drill for rep in Alaska. :(

    Being that I am a proponent of the Abiogenic Rep Origin theory, I doubt that we will ever have to have to suffer the problems of a Peak Rep scenario.

    Is there an actual TIME that rep recharges?

    Or do you slowly get back to 20 points? Thats the reason I want to know.
