A few questions/suggestions

Okay, below are a couple questions. If they're not already features, I'd like to suggest they be made so.

First of all, can multiple people (here) post on other peoples forums for the same forums? I believe they can, but I just wanted to confirm.

Secondly, can there be a way to rank your forums for importance? For example, I have a forum that has decent activity. I'd like the current users to continue to recieve credit posting there - and possible have a few other people join now and then - but I also have a site with no activity.

Say I have a balance of 200. Is there a way to make forum #2 posted with 200 posts, and forum #1 listed with like 25? Does that make sense? This way people are more likely to join forum #2, and forum #1 isn't getting all the credit/members.

For the first question I do believe the answer is yes. Ryan can speak more to that as I don't have a lot of time.

For the second one, the answer is not currently. This is something I have thought about recently and have been trying to come up with a way that we could do something like that. I will try to talk with Ryan this evening and see if I can come up with some kind of change to the code that will do this, provided our conversation goes well.

And to confirm the first question, the answer is indeed yes. You can read more information on that here.

I'm not sure right now whether or not we will allow your friends to earn credit for you in forums which you are already subscribed to and earning credit yourself...but Larry and I will talk about that tonight as well.

I also like the idea of giving certain forums importance.

I don't think so, all you would have to do is add a weighting factor when calculating the total. For example, if I had two sites with -100 then they would be both 50. If I weighted one 2 and the other 3 then one would be 40 and the other 60.

The complication may arise in how they system is set up and how the tables work. But the only place the actual number matters is on the "subscribed sites" and "all sites" pages.
