Re: Rep - Participant points Rod Kemp2-Apr-10 4:38 Rod Kemp 2-Apr-10 4:38  6 Newsletters what are they, I only have 4 available Offers, Feedback, Newsletter and The Insider what are the other 2. Re: Rep - Participant points AspDotNetDev2-Apr-10 14:15 AspDotNetDev 2-Apr-10 14:15  Perhaps opting out of a newsletter and opting back in further increases points? If so, I'm gonna opt into about 5,000 newsletters when I get home. [Forum Guidelines] Re: Rep - Participant points Rod Kemp2-Apr-10 16:01 Rod Kemp 2-Apr-10 16:01  You know I was wondering if that would work, turns out it doesn't. Re: Rep - Participant points Luc Pattyn2-Apr-10 18:39 Luc Pattyn 2-Apr-10 18:39  So this table[^] is wrong as it doesn't mention any such limit?

Re: Rep - Participant points Rod Kemp2-Apr-10 18:55 Rod Kemp 2-Apr-10 18:55  Try it, unsubscribe then re-subscribe to a newsletter and see what happens. Also what are the 6 newsletters that Thiru mentioned as under my settings I only see 4. Re: Rep - Participant points Luc Pattyn2-Apr-10 19:09 Luc Pattyn 2-Apr-10 19:09  no points & no idea.

Re: Rep - Participant points Thiru Thirunavukarasu6-Apr-10 4:58 Thiru Thirunavukarasu 6-Apr-10 4:58  Opting in to a newsletter gets you 50 points. Opting out gets you -50. If we, in the future, were to create 20 new newsletters you could get up to 1200 points. Re: Rep - Participant points Abhinav S3-Apr-10 0:32 Abhinav S 3-Apr-10 0:32  I found 7 types of newsletters one can subscribe to.... AdOps Newsletter - An occasional newsletter to our advertisers and sponsors CodeProject Offers - Occasional offers for CodeProject members Feedback - Occasional requests for feedback on new CodeProject features High Achievers - The highest achieving members on CodeProject.com Newsletter - Weekly Newsletter with new articles and updates The Insider - Daily Industry and Insider news to keep you up to date Custom Mailout - A custom mailout to an ad-hoc list of members I wonder how many a new user can subscribe to? Are some of these news letters based on rep? Anyone have any clue? modified on Saturday, April 3, 2010 10:47 AM Re: Rep - Participant points Thiru Thirunavukarasu6-Apr-10 4:56 Thiru Thirunavukarasu 6-Apr-10 4:56  There are 4 publicly visible newsletters. The others are only visible to admin and staff. Re: Rep - Participant points Tom Deketelaere6-Apr-10 6:32 Tom Deketelaere 6-Apr-10 6:32  Thiru Thirunavukarasu wrote: The others are only visible to admin and staff. Then how can a new member opt into one of them? If only 4 are publicly visible that should mean one can get a maximum of 200 points for opting into newsletters. Re: Rep - Participant points Thiru Thirunavukarasu6-Apr-10 7:34 Thiru Thirunavukarasu 6-Apr-10 7:34  Possibly by staff or admin opting in on the member's behalf. Re: Rep - Participant points Tom Deketelaere6-Apr-10 7:40 Tom Deketelaere 6-Apr-10 7:40  Opt me in on a couple hundred then Re: Rep - Participant points Thiru Thirunavukarasu6-Apr-10 8:49 Thiru Thirunavukarasu 6-Apr-10 8:49  I'll keep you in mind Re: Rep - Participant points Dan Neely6-Apr-10 9:26 Dan Neely 6-Apr-10 9:26  Then perhaps those news letters should not give any points since they're not granted by anything the recipient did. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18 Re: Rep - Participant points AspDotNetDev7-Apr-10 1:05 AspDotNetDev 7-Apr-10 1:05  That are you willing to receive (and presumably review) content from Code Project seems worth a few reputation points. [Forum Guidelines] Re: Rep - Participant points Moak4-Apr-10 0:25 Moak 4-Apr-10 0:25  Hi Codeprojecters! I wondered from time to time too, how can new users get such a high participant rating? As others said, signing up 100, newsletters (50 x 4) 200, which makes a total of at least 300. Without really doing anything other then registering a membership account. Sorry if that has been discussed elsewhere, I would like to suggest a slightly more balanced participant rating system[^]: Newsletters should count much less (e.g. 10) and participant-type bronze is adjusted (e.g. 200).

Giskard Reventlov 31-Mar-10 4:16  I mostly visit the same set of 4-5 forums every day. It would be nice if I could create a custom list of these forums (and Groups) and see them in a box on the left side menu for easy and quick access; perhaps just above 'General Programming'. me, me, me "The dinosaurs became extinct because they didn't have a space program. And if we become extinct because we don't have a space program, it'll serve us right!"

C# - Goto Message Boards -> C# Site Bugs- Goto Message Boards -> Site Bugs The Lounge - Goto Message Boards -> The Lounge Soap Box - Goto Message Boards -> Soap Box That aint' good enough? Ok. More seriously, it's a suggestion worth considering - we could use a dropdown just like the one that classifies an article or our newsletter options to choose our forums, save them and then have a "shortcut" menu somewhere on the left.

Re: Create custom forum list dan!sh 31-Mar-10 5:04 dan!sh 31-Mar-10 5:04  There is something called Watched Forums. I am not aware how it works since I do not use it. But from the name it looks as if it might fit your need. Re: Create custom forum list R. Giskard Reventlov31-Mar-10 5:13 R. Giskard Reventlov 31-Mar-10 5:13  Not noticed that before but I'd still need extra clicks (like life is so short another click will really make a difference) whereas a box on the left, always open, would be really nice with links to forums or items of interest within CP settable as required. me, me, me "The dinosaurs became extinct because they didn't have a space program. And if we become extinct because we don't have a space program, it'll serve us right!" Larry Niven Re: Create custom forum list dan!sh 31-Mar-10 5:17 dan!sh 31-Mar-10 5:17  How about creating a small application yourself? It would open the frequently visited forums tabbed in your favorite browser through just one click. Re: Create custom forum list R. Giskard Reventlov31-Mar-10 5:25 R. Giskard Reventlov 31-Mar-10 5:25  Yes, I could even do it by adding each forum as a separate link in my favorites and open as required but that's not the point: I think it might be a useful feature added here for everyone. me, me, me "The dinosaurs became extinct because they didn't have a space program. And if we become extinct because we don't have a space program, it'll serve us right!" Larry Niven Re: Create custom forum list Dan Neely31-Mar-10 5:47 Dan Neely 31-Mar-10 5:47  At that point, why not just have your browser apply some hacked CSS, etc to create a Favorite Forums subsection in the left sidebar. Perhaps suggest it to Shog9 as a CPhog enhancement if Chris isn't interested. 3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18
