Grusa Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 So here we all are, we have our usernames and our avatars. We have this thing, community reputation, and a number. Click, and you get your reputation page, saying "no activity". We get a breakdown of reactions given, and reactuons received .......not that I care, really. Bit where does this mysterious reputation number come from....how is it calculated? Then we have our status, "Senior member", "Newbie", etc., where do they come from? Am I missing something, is there a file buried somewhere telling us what all that meaningless drivel really means, or is it a random number generator? Will I be condemned and incinerated for daring to ask? Will anyone notice/care? Will I? Answers please, on the back of a Thai postage stamp, if you can find one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaiyaTH Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 (edited) Just a standard forum software feature that TV has as well. Nothin else.

Popular Post rumak Posted June 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2020 i would tell you what life on TV is all about....... but then i would be sent to the dungeons once again. Jack Nicholson screaming " you want the truth? you can't handle the truth" always comes to mind when i am tempted to post something mildly controversial. I have been a good boy lately. Eating my vegetables. But this mask thing has made holding my tongue quite tricky. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Worst president ever" could always be counted on for double digit likes. It's still possible to get 50 likes per post if you limit your comments to "hang the pedo" or if you discuss the fragile Thai male ego.

Oldie Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Every day I read newspapers from many countries. Is it entertainment or information? But I always check this forum here. Many things I could read here helped me a lot. Because they covered problems I and perhaps other expats living HERE might have. If you don't live here it might be a different experience.
