Hey all
We've activated a couple of options on the boards.
Reputation
At the top of each post you'll see a little icon that looks like this: http://paintball.net.nz/images/buttons/reputation.gif
If you read a post or a thread and really like what someone has to say then you can tell the world (so to speak) by adding to the posters rep. Click the image, and fill in the details ... simple as that!
If someone gives you some rep you can see it on your User CP (http://www.paintball.net.nz/usercp.php).
Infractions
And now to the dark side of things. With the site getting bigger over time it is time to introduce infractions.
What moderators and admins can do is issue infractions for posts that 'break the rules' (not that we've got a lot of them (http://paintball.net.nz/showthread.php?t=1)). Each breaking of the rules is equivalent to 1 infraction point and 3 infraction points = a short holiday from the boards.
Now I'm not anticipating any real need for this to be honest - I can't recall any posts that would have needed them so far - but better to have it in place before it becomes an issue :)
Reporting a Post
If you see a post that is just 'wrong' you can report it to the moderating team by clicking on this icon: http://paintball.net.nz/images/buttons/report.gif
This throws it into the moderators forum, and the team will have a look at it as soon as they can.
