What is the bar below the points?

Does it represent how many points you have overall, after you've spent them in the store or something?

Cheers

AS

It shows how many posts you have.
If you mouse over the bar, you'll see the total number of posts.

The redder the bar, the more "applauds" a person has received from ATS staff.

Orange bars indicate ATS staff members.

I have always wondered that actually, how many applauses it takes for your bar to start going a red colour. Anyone know this?

Ahh I see, thank you. It doesn't seem to work in Firefox though? Only in Internet explorer. Is there some option I could turn on so it did?

Nope...only works in IE.

Keep an eye on Firefox extensions. If you're using build 0.9+, the extension for the mouseover isn't yet available. When it is, it'll be posted there.
If you're using 0.8 or lower, you can get it here.

Banshee...apparently you dont just test the plugins. Works jsut fine in .9...

Im kinda behind...needa update to .9.1

I *did* test that plugin.
I'm on 0.9.1 and it does not seem to work.
Makes me sad, cuz I like that extension.

Just upgraded to .9.1...busy when I tried a few days ago....works

Might wanna try installing it again....i think it clogs up this slim browser so ima uninstall it

Edit...this is a short lived version of FireFox...the shortest since Iv been using it since Pheonix .3...Version 1b will be out sometime this month. Then Version 1 final in September...yay

Just for ATS Staff info', mousing over the bar doesn't work in Safari OS X either.

Sanc'.

I'm using the latest version of Opera and it won't work for me either (the mouseover that is). Too bad I had some major trouble with IE and it is basically worthless now, I should really just remove it from my computer

So how are we getting points, and why does it seem im not getting any?

is it true that the former mudpit (now restricted debates)you dont get as much or any points for postings?

Why do some threads show the points bar and others dont.

why does it seem like the mods are stingy on dishing out the points

This page details the points system on a per-forum basis.

I'd say close to five.

Oooh! Thanks for letting me know that Bangin
Five is my lucky number!

Here are a few question trends I've seen recently that could be addressed:

What is that bar under my points for?
Can I change my username?
How do I adjust my time stamp?
Why was my message lost when I hit post reply?
How do I prevent parenthesis from being displayed when I post in ATSNN?
What are the effects of using the ignore button? Does it block posts and U2Us?
Why can't I log in?
What is the text limit on sigs and titles? Why doesn't punctutation show up?
How does my member status change to writer, scholar, and/or fighter?
Why isn't my blog working?
Why am I blocked from this particular forum?

Yet another case for the need of FAQ updates, addressed on this thread

There's another one with this question one the board questions page I'm looking at....but I feel a bit fatigued with my recent attempts at pointing out these repeat questions today....no offense to agent47 - it threw me off a bit too until I figured it out

I'm using IE with windows XP, and I do not seem to have the mouse over fietcher working. Is there a reason any one might know why?

When it reaches the light blue color of mine it means you're the manliest of men.

Peace

Fred any chance you could answer why the mouse over is not working or what the different colors really mean?
