^^ He's been posting that everywhere.

What happens if you follow the link?

I think it'd be pretty cool to ask for people's AIM/MSN/Yahoo account names, MySpace page and last.fm and maybe make like, a thread with all the info so if anyone ever wanted to get in contact with another user of MX they could. I dont know, just an idea.

make one, thats a great idea.

Alright, I made it, but if there's a problem mods, take appropriate action, it's just an idea I had.

Nothing really wrong with it, just, if anything, that there've been similar threads before.

It's an attempt to stop people linking to po[font=verdana]r[/font]n sites more than a belief that it's a 'bad word'.

Oh, alright. I'll just type "pr0n" from now on, it's cooler looking anyways.

"hi"?

Is anyone else seeing every thread titled this? Looks like someone h4xored us :(

Can you please rename it to "Getting To Know You: Rock and Metal", as pleasant as "hi" is.

[QUOTE=Moses]Hey Riva, or any other mod in here:

I'd like to start a R+M keyboard thread in R+M but I could see someone being like "Oh well then we should have a guitar thread" or "We have a piano/keyboard forum already". I'd just like to hear what the mods would say about it. I think it's reasonable because keyboard is kind of an unappreciated instrument but is on the rise.[/QUOTE]
Hello?

Somebody changed teh daily upload thread title as well :confused:

[QUOTE=Moses]Hello?[/QUOTE]

Just start a Rock and Metal keyboard thread in the Other Instruments forum, because it will open the floodgates if we allow a dedicated instrument thread in here.

Umm the Power Metal Thread has been renamed to Metallica Inc... what the hell?

EDIT: Thisi Metallica Inc one should be Power Metal

The Power Metal thread is still titled "Metallica, Inc", just FYI.

/beaat

Yeah, Bart did a lot of work restoring thread titles, from what I can see.

omfg... what the hell happened? hacked?

does this mean that our passwords were hacked too, etc.?

No, I think he hijacked a moderator's (Stum's) account and messed with the titles. He could have been more creative than of just said 'hi' though......

So is rep back like it apparently appears to be?

Yeah. People with over 1k rep and mods can rep.

Everyone's rep from the original system has been restored, too.

what is a "rep"?

Reputation givin to good/bad users. It's basically points.

Rep stands for reputation.

Do you get the "Elite" title when you have over 1,000 points?

Edit: Nevermind, my Elite title just showed up. When I first got on today it wasn't there, but I knew I used to have more than 1,000 points. I'm a real boy again.

Is it like taking place of the stars I'm guessing.

Fukk, why can't the rep go back to the days where I had like 3,000 points? :( Instead I now have 39. :'(

:eek:
where can i see how many rep i have?

[QUOTE=Silenius]Fukk, why can't the rep go back to the days where I had like 3,000 points? :( Instead I now have 39. :'([/QUOTE]

You mean back in the old days, the first time around? The whole forum had stars and a lot of people in RM had like 10k.

Haha, yeah, the Community Thread "rep parties". :lol:

[QUOTE=repcak]:eek:

Go to your User CP and it should be up there.

I got a weak 164!

ah, there. i have 34... i don't even know how much i had before. what does increase the number? your posting-rate, or the quality of the post?

I believe once a person gets 1,000 rep points, they have the ability to hand reputation out.

You only get rep points if a moderator or a person with enough points see you doing something helpful or starting a creative, good thread.

Someone else will give you a positive rep, if you make a good post (translation: post that they like).

People with over 1000 rep give it to you when they deem it fit. They give it through the little check and x button under your location.

Guys, I beat both of you.

But you said 3000 hence I had to correct your inaccuracy. :p


EDIT: ****IN NINJA EDIT!

hm... i'm surprised that i never have seen the good-reputation-button, but i knew the bad-rep-button ... lol.
