I've decided to use another name here, but I'm also a new arrival from Urban. There I'm Lock&Light. This is my first posting here, so I hope it counts as the 'obligatory' one.

(Waits for the smartarses to give him and miss minnie negative reputations :rolleyes: )

I have no power here though :(

Really Urban75 is a great site- best one I've posted on for range of topics and debate. Might check out others on the list of nominations but U75 has felt like home for some time :)

nah, you start off with 10 by default. when i tested this on a test site each 'approval' upped your reputation. can't remember if you can set it so that you need x approvals in order to gain a point.

this is a great way to test out these features! all hell would break loose on urban if we suddenly introduced reputations. :D

btw, what do peeps think of the home page of this site? it's something i've tried out for urban. it can be tweaked any number of ways without disrupting the forums. there's also an entire portal system that extends vbulletin - the front looks like the home page here but admins can add categories and pages and galleries etc.. a lot more work than just the home page though.
