Help with tanTalk - tanTALK

shelsland · 02-10-2006, 10:26 PM

Hello, I am a new member trying to figure out how tanTalk works. I have looked at the FAQ's and have been browsing the other threads, but still find my self confused!!!:???: Is there a thread I can read on how the whole points, reps, etc; works? I have replied to a couple of threads and (hopefully) given some positive points to a couple of members.

So far I am enjoying what I am reading and want to be a savvy member!

PS Neon Beach...you are a riot!

Thanks!

Thanks, Clubtan1! I did see that same info in the FAQ's...

I guess I see people saying they are "in time out" and they know who gave them points, but not the negative points. And then top250tansyou wants me to give them a negative points... I am confused on all this lingo!

If I get 10 clicks per day as noted below/above (?) how many rep points is one click worth?? If I like what the same person might have to say in serval forums, does it matter which forum I am in when I give them positive points? (I think it says I have to give points to 20 people before I can give points to the same person again?? But yet I am limited to 10 per day...)

Thanks in advance for any insight someone can give me & other newbies!!

A lot of great, helpful information in these threads! I appreciate the site!!!!!!

Thanks, Clubtan1! I did see that same info in the FAQ's...

I guess I see people saying they are "in time out"you are only allowed to give out 20 points per day and they know who gave them points, but not the negative points. because people don't sign their name when they give neg points And then top250tansyou wants me to give them a negative points... I am confused on all this lingo!

If I get 10 clicks per day = 20 pojnts as noted below/above (?) how many rep points is one click worth?? 2 points If I like what the same person might have to say in serval forums, does it matter which forum I am in when I give them positive points? yes, you can only give points to the same person once evry 10 clicks (I think it says I have to give points to 20 people before I can give points to the same person again?? But yet I am limited to 10 per day...2 point per person/per click)

Thanks in advance for any insight someone can give me & other newbies!!
