If you are on windows, and you installed it go to Start>Program Files>Accessories>System Tools>Character Map
It has all the symbols you need
But if something like it was built into SEN (or just at least a few symbols) that would be nice.

I still have my pre-karma reputation formula that I think should be used. Any system we have has to be based on multiple factors.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=10854&hl=formula
To improve it should maybe be
f [(2a + b/10 + (d-5)/2 * (3e/4)] [(-1/20) (c-6)^2 + 2]
Where
a - days as a member of SEN
b - post count
c - posts per day
d - member rating from 1 to 10
e - #of members who rated the person
f - admin rating of member starting at 1.000 and bounded from 0.500 to 1.200
I dare you to find a member where the systme would provide an innacurate rating.

I'm not exactly sure what "question" your equation "anwsers"...
If a member gives me a karma point, I have 1 karma point. Does your equation somehow make strict karma points more meaningful or something?
And like I said, # of days on sen shouldn't be factored into some equation.

Hey I just thought of something that I really miss from old v3 times. You should bring back the post customizer where you can have it automatically make you post in the font and color of your choice. (without taking the time to add BBCodes, though I might do that just for effect)

You see though, I imagine people will be annoying with that shit. Centered text just doesn't flow and such. Default font / color might be a possibility, but I'd hate to imagine idiots gonig around setting their default font to the largest size, bold, italics etc like you know some noobs would.

Well I just thought of this, you should make a drop down menu in the forums so that people could quickly see if a topic is located in the archives of that forum. Sometimes people don't know what the name of the topic they're looking for is, and sometimes people are too lazy to go back and check each page for the topic they're looking for.

It isn't flawed. Plug in some numbers for some little-know person who posted three times 1 year ago and never came back. They'll have a fairly low score, but not less than 100 - which is what they deserve. Their ppd would be like 0.02 so that would give a multiplier of 0.3, and their posts and meber rating are tiny.
Being an admin/mod would probabally mean your admin rating is higher, and that affects your score.

Ideas for BBC thingies...
make a [quotebox] thing for thoes long quotes that are like 5 pages long.
make a [textarea] or [textbox] thing for posting longer text.
The reason for these, why should everything be in a codebox if its too long and not a code?

IE6 also doesn't support CSS2 standards, I'm not yet sure how this will effect them because I didn't build the IE css file yet...
I'm sure it's going to make something ugly as hell... For the form elements (input, textarea, etc) I used 'attribute selectors' to give radio buttons a different css class than other input tags.
input,textarea {border: 1px solid #008200;background-color: #000;font-size: 11px;vertical-align: middle;padding: 3px;}
input[type="submit"] {border: 1px solid lightgreen;background-color: #000; vertical-align:top;padding:3px;}
input[type="checkbox"], input[type="radio"] {padding:0px; margin:0px;vertical-align:top;}
However, IE7 should be in beta testing soon?
