Shoutbox

In http://shoutbox.menthix.net/statistics.php?page=profiles2 , in the top 15 best rated guys, i was thinking if u could make it so it will show u in the list just if u got more than 5 rates or something..

Cause sometimes there are some guys with 2 votes and 5 stars up there and its quite dodgy

dunno, just an idea

Nah, showing all users is part of the fun, because when you notice a n00b on the list, you can rate and remove him/her.

so true

ok then

There's some sort of intelligence behind it... I once tried to get a random n00b called supercow above patchou but 1 vote didn't work... after i persuaded a couple of other ppl to vote it worked (of course someone then de-rated him)

another weird bug. not everyone who was born in 1987 (me) is 17. in fact, most arn't. its only the 3rd! so does that go by   age or year of birth??

Well it would be impossible to calculate the number of members who's birthday it hadnt been yet. Plus not all members disclose their birthdays. Therefore in 2004 you are 17 at some stage.

Year. That's why the year is shown in the stats instead of just the age.

Calculating the age would be best, but when you have to make stats for 20000+ users, you want to keep the code simple.

I was born in 1988 and I'm still 15... and it doesn't say I'm 16 yet. I suppose it depends whether or not you disclose your birthday.

What's the actual rule then?

Ummm, allow me to go off-topic for a moment, I didn't want to start a new thread. I have a really small myBBug () to report:
When a thread is locked and a non-privileged user clicks the "quote" button next to some post in it, the error page says that you can't edit this post because the thread is locked. So it should be "quote" there instead.

OK, you can go on with your conversation now.
