<p>I also absolutely hate this text editor. But maybe @IB Nolan can explain why they chose to remove&nbsp;props? If it was in fact not an accident or temporary measure.</p>

Maybe if you tried a little harder you could get to something higher than 1/3 his post count. Like auto-posting some random, inane phrase in each new thread?

Now when we say "props" it is meaningless...meaningless!
I didn't even notice it til I saw everyone complaining about it.
But yeah, kinda sucks, mainly because it was my way of knowing the cool newbs from the dumb ones.

<p>Whats up with the lack of communication between the people running the site and the users. Is there some background communication going on between the admins and the IB people? (@Braineack, @shuiend?) Or are they just ignoring this? It seems like they just pop in every once in a while.</p>

IB uses mt.net as sort of a test site for changes and such. Sometimes mods are alerted to changes that are coming up, sometimes they are not. We get used as a test site because from what I am told we actually have decent mods who communicate with the IB staff. Sometimes the techs at IB just **** up because they are stupid and we have to let IB know there are problems. We have the grumpy cat up besides "My Posts" because they fucked up once and Nolan had to go in and fix some ****.

Since all of you gays are up in arms about props instead of getting married to each other I talked to Nolan about it. The plugin that did it was insecure and was getting hacked on several of their other forums. So they removed it to get rid of the vulnerability and are currently looking for a better way to do it. The best that they can do at this moment is a "thanks" button of sort. Would having that appease the masses, or do you all really want to give negative props to newbs?
