Got a suggestion how we can improve? Post it here.

Rate user

Postby OrangeEyebrows » Sun Apr 26, 2015 6:08 am

I find it a touch frustrating how long the refractory period is when it comes to rating a user from their profile rather than his/her specific posts. I understand why there's a time limit on it, because otherwise you could just go and rep someone through the roof if you were so inclined, but perhaps it could afford to be a shorter limit? Say twelve hours? Or even "no more than X times in a week" or something. I often find myself wanting to rate the same user more than once in a relatively short timeframe if we're engaged in a discussion together.

The refractory period is configurable, so you'll just need approval from an admin to change it.

I'm speaking as a user, not a mod, so I'm more looking for other opinions on the subject.

Speaking personally, I'd like to see rate user being limited to once per 24 hour period, instead of the current 48 hour period. But it's a pretty minor thing.

With a devilish twinkle in his eye.
With his hand-picked flowers,
And his feel-good powers,
He made all the girls blush and sigh.

Don't worry Orange, by "minor things" he just means his penis. He's deluding himself by calling it pretty though.

Before anyone yells at me,yes, I did indeed get the underage joke. I just wanted to turn it into a dick burn. But not on a minor. Don't burn your dick on a minor.

It's very easy to change. I haven't thought about it, but I have no problem with changing it. I feel like it should atleast be a few hours to discourage rep spam, so anywhere between 12 to 24 sounds good to me.

EDIT: When I get repped on this post it reads "Re: Rate user [..]" I get excited thinking I got user repped... then reality hits me.

So in one thread we discover Jamish's flippant predilections and that Eyebrows is a serial ratist. This thread is like an NSA magnet.
