Ok, I'm going to really 'skin it' here and show my technically challenged status

You know how you click on your "user CP" upper left hand? and then, it shows where you are "thanked" etc, THEN sometimes there is a printed message on the right?? How do you do that?? Someone? anyone?? Pulleeeze??? Help me???


Sowwy folks, back OT

If you look at the bottom of this post on the left-hand side bar that has my info, you will see three icons. The first tells you whether or not I am online. The second allows you to "rep" me. If you click on that, it opens a small dialogue box, and you can share your thoughts about my post. The third icon is a button that allows you to report a post, which you find offensive or one which you believe violates the TOS. If you look at the bottom of this post, on the far right-hand side, you will see a thanks button. By clicking on this, you can give someone a quick "rep." If you want to give someone a double "rep," click on the dialogue box one, first, and the thanks one, last. I hope you enjoy "repping!"

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'd never figured that out on my own, sad but true

I think it would be good for the Planet to consider having a Parenting Subforum. It could fit under "Relationships, Communities, Groups". There are a number of people here with children and it could be a place for advice and support.

I personally don't have a kid, but was just wishing I did b/c I like to have an excuse to get up at 3AM on the day after Thanksgiving to stand outside of an electronic's store for a new XBox, or something. And yes, I actually mean that.

I'm surprised that with all of the parents on this forum, no one has chimed in thinking this was a good idea?

Maybe this needs a *bump*?

Sorry, June..lol I actually wasn't speaking to the Admin/mods asking that you all do this...I don't know if there is a desire for it....I was actually just trying to throw it out to the group, to see if there was some interest. It wasn't actually a "request" per se.

But, yes, patience is not my strong suit!

Maybe you missed the PM telling you you were demoted and lost some of your superpowers?


I did make one, but it showed up in the Moderator Forum, which won't do you any good. Let's wait for Linus. As a parent, I think it's a good idea.

I think he is traveling right now. Medusa may be able to do it as well, but I know she had a houseful today!

Thank you.

Ohhhhh yes!!! but? sorry to disappoint, I don't stand outside at 3 am, for anyone, LOL

Some of us like to get over-stuffed with Torfurky and a great Canadian Ice Wine. :P

I will add it now.

ETA: me thinks the admin added it but going to suggest we move it first.

[Linus]

Fixed and moved.

That's referred to as a rep. You can do this by hitting on the scales found on the user's mini-profile beside posts that they do. You need to do reps first before thanks otherwise you'll be limited to thanks.
