Well, I really did like being a Fool of a Took. But moving up means I'm that much closer to being as faithful as Samwise, which is a very cool thing to be. *nod nod* Only about 20 points left to go!

My curiosity was recently piqued concerning the general pattern of “join date”. There are members on this forum of great antiquity

dating back to the the earliest barrows ever dug. Within the “Members List” page, there is a link named “Search Members” located just above the “Avatar” column. If one chooses the “Advanced Search” link, a wealth of options presents itself. I chose “Order Results by” Join Date and was easily satisfied, but the search is powerful and much more could easily be gleaned.

Isn't a little against the spirit of the thing to be quite so keen on advancement and to broadcast the details of who and how many? Might look likr bragging.. or fishing.....

I have another question about the repping system? How many points do I give out when I rep someone. Is there a formula to it. I have 3 jewels box things, and almost 500 posts, just curious to see how many points i "rep" somebody up, when I do rep them. Thanks.

Read The Barrow-Wight Explains Reputation Weights for the answer.

Thanks for the link BW.

You know, I recently got "negative points" for responding to a thread that's been discussed too many times? Oh better yet, the person didn't leave his name, you might as well tell me who you are, instead of hiding. Anyway, I just felt like making it known, if you are going to give me points, fess up, write your name down, instead of hiding.

***The Barrow-Wight*** · 11-07-2004, 05:15 PM

It was me!*

What are you going to do about it!?

* Not really. Hee. Stop complaining and make enough good posts to overcome occasional unexplained setbacks.

Sapphire_Flame · 11-08-2004, 09:46 AM

Thanks for that link, BW. I'd been wondering how that all worked out.

EDIT: *snackle* I'm as faithful as Samwise now! *polishes her shiny new jewel*

If you get übermany reps, can you design your own reputation title?

Not asking for myself (obviously), but the idea of some people (coughdavemFordimBBSauciecoughheyitalmostrhymes!) getting certain priveleges with 10 or more boxes intrigue me.

I notice that davem is now the bearer of two glowing jewels, out of seven. And congratulations to Sauce for moving up to third place with his own jewel.

I wonder if this means that 200 points are now needed to gain a new jewel? I'm assuming that davem has topped 700 points.

So is davem now in the "Holy of Holies" of Aragorn's court? Or is he trying to usurp the throne from Aragorn himself?
