When giving bad rep you get the same happy pop up message *the javascript one* saying

"Thanks for adding reputation to this user. May you be lucky enough to revceive the same Reputation back in turn"

might need tweaking that i think.

Yep, it is a bit lame. Suggestions to change the wording?

DO we need the javascript pop up thing?

I am personally against it.

"Thanks for adding reputation to this user. If you happen to receive the same Reputation back in return, then tough luck."

"Bling awarded", "Bling given"
or for Red
"Your Displeasure has been passed on"

or a generic "Your feedback has been posted"

Does there have to be any popup box ? What purpose is it serving?

**SpankMe** · 15th August 2006, 12:01

None that I can see. Will remove when I got time.

Yeah I'm with the program mate, but Ixion asked what purpose that pop-up box serves and I stated "confirmation". It's confirming that the rep has been given, and i spose it's beneficial for KB noobs who don't know or understand the reputation system here.

It is superfluous as you cant rep the same post twice so if they doubt it worked and try again they will be informed of the intial success.
