We are trying to change some of the ibox text now as it seems that some of the revised text got over written while doing the update. It makes less than no sense at the moment in a few places. :sad:
Welcome back, love the avatar steve "fire up the Quattro!"
Im afraid like Ebay you only get to give feedback once at point of purchase so to speak. I would suggest the situation you have described is quite an unusual one, and a PM to Admin to invistigate it could allow for it to be changed manually as it is clearly not the norm.
Parts of the site are already and have always been public, this means that the Shrep bar will also be displayed publicly in those areas. If you have any concerns about this simply lock all the settings down to "private" and only display the basic bar information. You can always invite people to view it privately to stay 100% in control.
By default the system is off so you will have all the choices before it is activated.
Shrep is a PDF Document? Do you have PDF software?
I will try and answer your questions as best as I can on understanding them.
1. Once a comment is made it cant be edited
2. You can use Shrep without the friends function at all. But ONLY friends can Vouch for your profile.
3. The SHrep page is public but does not have to show anything other than your SHrep bar score. It can be put not to display anything, or can be friends only or by private invite. The SHrep bar also displays on public areas of the site like photo adds etc. You have a widget if you use other sites and want to use the SHrep system on them that will point back to your main public SHrep page as well.
You can only send one gift a day or 2 if extras so I doubt you will get that many tbh
How can you say you will not use something without knowing anything about it??
I bet you a sack of Potatoes you end up using it and liking it??
Take my bet?
Those in the know, think it is nothing like what any other site has. But feel free to comment when you get the information and facts. But I think you will be very surprised at how well thought out it is and just how it works.
SHrep is a reputation system that "most" of the site members wated and voted to have, nearly 90% from memory. But like all changes here a few people hate everything you do. No problem with that its just the way it is. Fortunately that is the power of cross site surveys everyone gets to have a say and we only build what people vote to have.
Ohhh there should only be a choice of ten for non extras.. thanks for that will get that fixed :lol
Our survey said that people wanted custom profiles, they also wanted to be able to make notes, select options to, accomodate, travel, send virtual gifts etc.
Funnily enough if you select the options in your profile they page fills up, the rest of the room top centre is for SHrep when it goes live in the next month or so, and a public planner (if you want to display it). In short the old page would not accomodate, you have the nearest upgraded one possible in blue, pink and green for those who dont like change.
The old ones took 5 mins to build these took months!!!!
Try CTRL F5 as there are a few bugs in the style sheet being fixed, they should all look lovely now but if you are seeing something without a style sheet please post a picture.
We have just made a load of changes to split certain parts of the site away so more connections can be open. This went live about lunch time, can you let us know if things are a bit better now.
thanks
Site messanger went global today, so depending on how you set your privicy settings it will show to different types of people in different places. Either friends, public, etc etc. Some page loads will seem slow at the moment as we have to make a few more code changes.
Now I have seen this on another forum and it is a lot of fun. Basically each post someone gets to carry on the story with five words so I will start.
Once upon a time there
Just turn it off on your privicy page. Or follow the link in the information box on your members home page.
One of the guys in the office who has been working on it uses a mac, unless its a really old crap one or you are running some way out west operating system it should work ok as his is fine. Log out and log back in and then try it again. Failing that pop a ticket into support and we will take a look.
Im sure between our memmbers we could come up with all the shops, catering, entertainment, and a venue etc. Maybe take over a whole camp site somewhere with toilets etc already there? any ideas welcome.
