Small Updates
* Quotes don't count - I have adjusted the code so you can't use Quotes in order to make up a minimum word count. It is too easy to Reply to someone by Quoting their text and then only have to add a two words Reply.
* Real Age doesn't matter - Instead of showing an offset age it will just say "Teenager" or "Twenty Something" or "Thirty Something", etc. This keeps Members from deliberating over exact age and also helps Members maintain greater anonymity over their personal information.
* New Thread Rating emphasized - Rating Threads has been emphasized and '0' rated Threads or in other words those Threads with no vote has been given a generic '1' to start. New Threads from now on will star with '0' until someone votes.
Final Updates
I have been recently doing tweaks here and there. If you were surfing the Community and suddenly saw strange numbers at the top do not be alarmed, this was just me testing the code I created. It is all over now and I have done all I needed to do. I will update other Threads as needs be with the most recent changes but for now you will please note the black bar to the very top helping all see exactly where they are at all times and the subject matter of the page.
