Default Re: Renewal (2013)

There's not much I can help you with, so I jumped on the opportunity quickly, lol. My guess as to why there is no longer rep points is because the few ruined it for the majority and it was deleted because of it.

Ya......Just that the sticky appears that there still exists reputation points when in fact that is not the case. Anyway......not an issue just clearing up factual vrs non factual information.

And.....that little tip related to Section starting points Display Options was a great help I had no clue.
I still am trying to figure out why some Sections seem to revert back to different starting points. I bet there is an option to set the Section starting points so they do not change

I got it......I bet that being Forum News.......Old News is No News and Old News is over 100 days old so that option is set and reverts to 100 days each time you look to keep things simple.

ALL my simple ISSUES regarding Club News and Forum News have been addressed very nicely....appreciate that.....I guess since both my 90' and 91' Zs are running so perfectly I have nothing else to think about

Except taking some more photos next week of the SW Offroad Header and SW Exhaust installation in my 90' and posting a sound video

We no longer have "Reputation Points" and the last post in that sticky is dated 2008 with nothing said about "Reputation Points" no longer exist. Why "Reputation Points" no longer exist would be Forum News.

It ALL relates to Renewal in regard to being (or not being) a Paying Member I would say as there is definitley a difference on what a Paying Member sees and what a Non Paying Member sees when on the Forum. I actually would like FULL Transparency before I Pay To See
Vilant accurately described the means for accessing older threads in the Forum News section.

As to Rep points, this has nothing to do with club membership vs. forum membership. As it has been relayed to me, it was essentially decided unilaterally by one individual without any consultation of myself or others.

While there were a couple of forum members that used the system in an inappropriate fashion (i.e. reputation blasting), this was not the reason for the system being disabled.

While there is nothing wrong with making an inquiry about what happened to the reputation points, this is not on topic with this thread. You could discuss it in a specific thread in this section if you choose, but no longer in this thread.
