I've had better PD. Thanks

 

At least my dogs didn't get eaten by urban foxes.

[**Tilly**]

Car failed MOT.

Meat for tea like shoe leather.

One pan boiled dry but just about saved contents.

One pan fell off hob with boiling water and runner beans all across kitchen floor. (I did manage to dodge getting splashed by it so that's good).

Annual appraisal at work tomorrow.

Fed up.

Getting a cold.

Got sore throat

[Jan4a]

they ate my chickens

 

They chewed through the corner of a wooden shed to get to my rabbits.

 

Knew someone who worked on a farm, he hated foxes because they killed everything in sight, even though they only ate 1. And he hated magpies because they used to peck at eyes and asses of calves.

[MilkTrayMan]

Foxes who are too fussy to eat dogs!

[Woolleykat]

people who keep chucks cooped up in small cages x 3 or 4 so haven't got priveleage of even seeing a fox.

Agree.

[Mr lex]

They ate my dustbin bags !!

[Jan4a]

I wanted the foxes or the sparrowhawk to come and remove the dead pigeon that flew into the bedroom window yesterday.

 

Of course they didn't and I had to bury it today.

[The GodMother]

never seen a fox or any type of wild animal round here.

What has been BAH HUMBUGGING me a lot lately is when I reply to a thread on cag. Sometimes it is not on a subject I am too familiar with so will do a bit of research and hopefully point the op in the right direction or pm someone I think can help them. I don't expect a bouquet of flowers for my meager efforts but would appreciate knowing if the info I give is helpful so I can use it again for others. I have even posted asking if the info helped and 'Nothing' 'Bo-diddly squat'

I always say thanks but you just made be realise I've been totally forgetting about clicking scales. Does everyone usually do this? I've noticed I've got some points - is that from people clicking my scales? And what do points do? Is that why some people have gold accounts etc - because they have lots of points?

[SOD'EM]

The status of your account (Gold etc) is determined by the amount of posts you have made (outside of the Bear Garden). The little green squares lower down are there for when people click your scales (outside of the Bear Garden), for advice they believe is helpful. The more green squares you have, the more people have clicked your scales.

 

If you have been repped by someone, you should have a notification to say that you have (the same as when you get a PM).

 

Simples;) (I think)

[Jan4a]

Thanks, I understand.

 

I'll remember to click scales instead of just saying thanks!

[HSBCrusher]

indeed.

 

its nice to click someone's scales if they have helped you out.

I will click someones scales if they've helped UNLESS they have a signature that requests it. I cannot abide them (apologise to those that have them!).

 

I hope that makes sense and doesn't come across petty!

[Spamalot]

I understand where you're coming from, but when people join these forums many don't realise that you can 'click scales'.

It wasn't until I saw it in someones signature that I discovered you could rep people for their help...

 

[Guest wino]

Sorry folks I wasn't complaining about not getting thanks or reps. I just want to know if my advice helped and the matter is solved. If the advice worked I can then pass that onto others.

That's a great point. I'm just a miserable sod!

For the record I really rate your advice and also the way you deliver it. You're always friendly with newbies and I think that goes a very long way!

I know you weren't - your post just reminded me that I'd been meaning to ask about scales & points & things for a while.

The status of your account (Gold etc) is determined by the amount of posts you have made (outside of the Bear Garden).

Although technically true SOD'EM' date=' it doesn't take into consideration that many [b']CAG[/b] Users have recently had their total post counts reduced + the criteria for the various CAG account status thresholds have also been changed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

...The more green squares you have' date=' the more people have clicked your scales.[/quote'] Again, not necessarily true.

...It all depends on the repping power of the User who reps U.

e.g. A zillion reps by newbies, who are genuinely grateful for a little help here + there, are easily outweighed by the odd rep by a Site Team Member or long standing CAG User.

Far from 'simples' methinks.
