Wow, it will buy you Starbucks? No wonder people take wrecks so seriously.

Remind me to rec your post when my next 30 days roll around. Well said. Don't forget to add that when THEY were rec'd it was a whole different story. Recs were GOOD and a mandate proving they were doing the right thing and all that rubbish.
There, i'll give him one of mine 🙂


At least i'm not the only one who thinks this way .

I wrecked it for you (I used the wreck I stole from Phlabibit's wreck box).

Thanks, both of you. It's been really frustrating because I would gladly risk a forum ban of even 30 days, but I don't want to get banned from the site, so I bite my tongue a lot.

Ouch, poor tongue! I just try to be apathetic.

Does Phlabby's wreck box automatically refill every 30 days? That would be handy.

That's a great story wormwood. You're better than stephen king!

And now for a dose of the truth. Straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak:

Rec ownership is no longer shown - lets keep the focus of "recommendations' on the quality posts, not the individuals who posted them.

In a further effort to make the forum post recommendation system more effective, all 'recommendation' data has been reset, and now forum recommendations are now limited to 10 in a 30 day period for a particular user. (This remains a subscriber only feature, to prevent abuse).

-Russ

I agree too. So much so, I will add this limitation ASAP.

-Russ

edit: I was just this close to ripping out the entire rec system.


I'll give it a week or two to improve, otherwise it will be destroyed forever - along with the entire rec system.

-Russ


The recommended posts index makes a return after a prolonged absence. It is now updated once every night (GMT).

Lets just hope the quality of the recommended posts improve, otherwise this may be a brief revival.
