You could use the coloured arrows ( ) as on the Pirates project. Easier on the eyes, better against RSI for trying to hit the right extremely small icon + or - on resolutions above 1024x768. :-D

Hard to say... at least you should be able to rate if you can post.

I still really like the rating system, too... I hope to find the time this summer to implement some changes that might make it more valuable when it comes to troll smashing.

Brekeley? We've got a problem: Do you know what will happen if I can't be opinionated here? I will have to visit you personally to rant and rave...

Oh yeah??? And what about the minus attack's I (and others) have been exposed to here??? Huh??? People like the K's could come here, make multiple account and rate my posts to collaps one by one! Honestly, I think the rating system has overlived itself after we got the ignore function!

I hit the same thing... if it does it to you again on Saturday, bug me about it (email and IM info here) and I'll in turn bug other people about it.

Really, I don't think post rating should be a RAC-limited thing... maybe I'll cut that code out and offer the patch to Dr. Anderson.

FWIW, I can't rate posts now, either... too busy crunching on pre-release projects to get very much S@H done. :-)

Keith, I can understand your frustraition, But are you the only one with this problem?

I would say you are doing something wrong.......

Merge the three duplicate computers and do a fresh
install of 4.25.....

Remove boinc completly first......

I bet there is a compuer genuis here that can figure it out..

You just need to "YELL LOUDER"

Hey Kieth.

This is a new "feature" that the dev guys have been trying to implement because we get too many trolls here posting and not crunching for the project. These same trolls just seem to thrive on wreaking havok rather than participating. I'm not sure what the minimum RAC is. But, I do know this. It's not working quite right. We have one person here that hasn't crunched a single WU for the project and yet he can still post in the fora. His RAC is 0. Go figure....
