"FNK" is an acronym not a contraction, so it doesn't need an apostrophe. I think the way it goes from caps to lower case nice seperates the acronym from the suffix. And then if you ever need to use the possesive it works fine (That FNKer's karma rating, those FNKers' bad attitudes)

Now did that scare you less or more than the WOW stuff

I don't think that scared anybody.. I think it's like one of those things where someone makes a joke like "man.... i'm so hungry i could eat a horse"

and you're the kid that comes out with "well actually.. that's physically impossible because this and that and etc"

stfu already. I'm pretty sure nobody cares about the grammatically correct version... I think it was more of a question as to what was more aesthetically appealing.

the postbit (this area here) will not contain IM or 'extra' stuff, thats for your profile. png's are still fairly new and unsupported in IE 6 or earlier, trust me I tried to use em in the new version and went thru headaches troubleshooting. flash would be a shit show, but I will keep it in mind.

Being able to upload YouTube videos for your profile video would be cool.

Also, some more customizing options for the FnK Profiles would be keen!

I think you misunderstood what I meant by the alerts for threads. What about if I make a public thread but I think, "I really want to make sure snyx and KenJi see this right away"....I should be able to select that they be notified when I make the thread....but it's still a regular public thread.

Phrenetic · #63 (**permalink**) Mar 09, 07

so the new karma system is going to have a number coresponding with how much karma hits or misses you have? so it will be like -5 or +1882

much like the hit or misses system on live video?

both private and public debates will have notification, maybe not on launch but I like where you are going

So is karma going to be scrapped completely it's going to be based on what you post inside a certain thread?

I would like to have some kind of instant message for those quick little things.

When are the changes going to take place?

by the example you quoted it doesn't look like karma has left its usual domain. yes comments in karma have been demolished and yes karma will be reset to conform to the new setup.

'quicker' private messages is something im looking into, thanks for the input

changes? think soon. I'll put out a 3 day APB sometime in the new week.
