How come some of the forums don't give credit for the posts? What is the rationale behind that? I never go to those sections of the Trap17 forum, because if I am going to contribute, I want it to count towards my credits.
I've always wondered that myself. But its not like theres no other forums you can post in, theres plenty. And thats what i like about this forum, the variety.
This is because in certain areas of Trap17's forums, most posts aren't really contributive, like for example the Jokes forum is usually copy-pasted jokes from around the web, so no posts are counted there. I don't decide the way the forums are set up, but I can tell you that's the main reason. If you want specific answers, I'd suggest asking an admin.
So, sorry I couldn't help more, but I hope that generally answers your question.
I think the idea behind no post count areas is one as Johnny said above some things are cut and paste in those areas and the other is posts in those areas tend to be more of a chat thing than a informative contribution thing. This way when you just want to jabber about whatever you don't have to worry about getting credits taken away for spam posts. These areas are for people to not worry about the post count and to talk about the subject at hand. kind of like a lounge or something.....

Yeah, I used to not go to those forums myself until recently, but the idea of a forum is to contribute your ideas to other people, and you should do it regardless of whether you get hosting credits/post count or not. Besides, there are some pretty interesting topics in there.
what is the point of putting credits in to the credit bank if you can not get them back out? I was
going to get hosted and then start gettting credits and put a few in the bank every week untill i
have enough for a free domain name, but if you cant pull them back out then that sucks?....

Why is it that so many of my posts are rated artistic? Every time I look at one of my posts after I
post them, I see artistic and I don't think that someone read it and rated it before I loaded
the page. Does this occur because a setting I might have changed? Does this come from an admin
decision to scar me with a permanent rating XD ? It's not that I think it's a bad thing,
I'm just curious about the mechanics behind it. Thanks.....

Hey guys, I was wondering if there would be any sort of credit return for the days the websites were

possible I'd liek at least some of that back. Thanks for listening! /smile.gif"

Well as I promised, I'm giving away all my award credits for winning the trap17 awards.
Actually these aren't all of them but I'm saving the rest for other giveaways. So anyway on
with the giveaway. I've been thinking about how exactly I should do this one. If I just made
one challenge and gave away 150 credits that would make one person very happy and the other members
very sad. So then I thought, why not have the first person to answer correctly win 100, second win
50, and third and fourth place winners win 25. Well this was a good idea, but still....
This is for anyone who may have read my other posts i wrote about my mom and her battle with lung
cancer. Well the battle is over she passed March 20th at 12 pm. I am sad, but also glad that she is
no longer suffering. The doctors were not far off back the day before Thanksgiving when they gave
here 2-4 months to live 3-6 with chemo and radiation. All I really have to say to anyone is that if
you know someone who has lung cancer spend as much time as you can with them because it happens sooo
fast. I can not stress that enough. She was doing good one day and then bad the....
hey everyone, i know opaque worked pretty hard to set up the new rating system (eRate! mod for
ipb), however i believe it should be removed. my reasons: 1. people can abuse the system by rating
people badly, just for the fun of it 2. to see a post's rating, you must actually click on the
'list' link, which i believe is inconvenient, because if i'm flicking through posts and
wanna see the good ones, i'd like to see their rating without having to click on a link. 3. i
actually believe the rating system is a bad idea - it is pointless, because it i....
Dear sir, i am so surprised that your credit system donot count post which are under
in code section. When i posted a c++ example in a thread name "Let me teach you c++", i didnot get
any credit. Am doing somthing wrong ? I now you credit system doesnot count posts which are under
quote section but it is also not counting post under code section. Please reply. Iam waiting for
your answer.....
Does anybody how to get credit poiints quickly ... It is boring to wait two days and post tens of
articles until you get 10 points and then be qualified to get free hosting... thank you....
Alright, so instead of terminating my hosting account I decided to stay hosted so I could give away
some more credits! SO the first person to complete my challenge wins. And also, this time I
have the 10 credits ready, so you won't have to wait a week to get them /xd.gif"

I'd like to use a "credit system" if I ever make a forum as well. It won't be used for
anything else, but the works will be the same as (or similar to) this one. Say a user has 0 credits,
then his/her account will be deleted, but not banned. The question I'm asking is, where did
this credit system come from? How do I go on making one myself?....
I have gone through any options related to this in my control panel, but it still is here! So
my question is... how do you remove that 'posts in topic' thing. I would really like to read
other people's post without wasting a lot of time, because i normally go on trap17 in my free
time and I don't have much free time anyway. I am a bit less active on trap17 just because of
that, for me, it is a deterrent for posting. I apologize if I have insulted any of the admins/mods
that installed this feature to save bandwidth or something, but can there atleas....
I came to Trap17 this morning and noticed that one of the posts I had made last night was on the

Mistakes happen. In the fury of writing long-winded posts (or short, meaningless drivel) it's
often easy to misspell a word here or there, or overlook a typo. I have no problem with that, nor
with taking a little artistic license to spice up the post if it adds some intrinsic value to the
thread. But lately, I've noticed some folks going out of their way to deliberately misspell
common words and butcher the English language beyond recognition. To cite a recent example, one
poster found it appropriate to spell "anyways" (which is not a real word, anyway ) as "A....
You can get a free credit report from AnnualCreditReport.com or

right to receive a free copy of your credit report once every 12 months from each of the three
nationwide consumer reporting companies: Experian, TransUnion and Equifax. No credit card is
needed, however, they will ask you personal questions to prove that the right person is accessing
the account. (Don't go to freecreditreport.com. Despite its domain name, it's not really

this tip is to help the search engines identify the semantics of your article. Nouns help specify
your article and also reduce the noise-to-signal ratio. For the most part, think of pronouns in the

Ok, first of all, this is a NO B.S. offer. This is how it works: Once you PM me, I will pay you

TICKLE offer which costs $5 - that's why I'm paying you the $5. If you are
uncomfortable with Tickle, you can choose Blockbuster, Netflix and other trusted companies! You
will need a credit card to signup with tickle and complete the offer. Once you complete the....
Anyone else ever take an 18-credit load in college? Even a 17? Just took my first
"crammer-semester," as my friends affectionately call it, last fall.... the results were not pretty
to say the least. Let's just say the pattern of working hard from day 1 to day 40ish and then
gradually declining from that point until the week before finals appears far too often for me.
Seems normal college behavior (unless you're a work/study-aholic), more than half the campus
does the same thing, but it just feels a bit ADD to me. Gotta start popping Ritzee's I guess, l....
