    Default Over 500 posts!!!

    Wow, I realised earlier that I'd just made my 501th post!!!

    Nowhere near Nigel's 18 billion-odd of course, but to us mere mortals 500 is a lot. It certainly makes Electro-tech-online my most active forum.

    Actually, I think Nigel should start having his posts counted in Hexadecimal...

    Nahh, binary. Or better yet, be really obscure, use octal.

    With a name like yours, your 1000th post can't be far away

    Btw, what is the minimum number of posts that will change your title into 'Experienced Member' (instead of 'New Member')?

    It's all bs more posts get any more respect; it's quality not quantity that counts.

    I do not answer private messages asking for help because no one else can: benefit from advice I may give or correct me if I'm wrong.

    Please ask on the open forum if you have a question and I'll be happy to help,
    if I know the answer.

    What I don't understand about this forum is what the little green blocks under the name mean. The mouseover text makes me think they are a user rating scale, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of variation.

    It's your reputation, people can give you good or bad evaluations, based on your posts - the more green blocks the better your reputation is. Red blocks mean you have a bad reputation!.

    How many people really use that on a regular basis?

    I wonder if it's possible to know who gave reputation. I imagine that in most cases the OP gives reputation after a helpful reply, but I gave rep after reading an interesting explanation, without being involved in that post.

    There's on option in your control panel where you can see who's given you reputation, and read the comment they made.

    I can read the thread title, its date and the comment (that's sometimes empty). I can only guess who gave me reputation?
