After you've spent your last mod point, other posts still display the [Good] [Bad] text in the post. However, the post you just modded, won't allow you to mod it again, becuase you're out of mods. And if you click 'good' or 'bad' after your last mod point has been spent, It was display 'loading', and never stops (no ERROR message). This is not neccesarily a bug, but it is worth pointing out, I think.

That's true. When you click a good or bad link, the javascript script adjusts the rating of the post (and the rankpoints / modpoints of the user who made it, and your modpoints), and adjusts the tooltips of the current post (the ones that say how many points you have, and how many it'll cost to mod it again). There is no easy (feasible?) way at all to do this for every post on the current page. However, if you refresh the page, it should be fine, so I don't think it's worth it.

Well, I don't think it's worthwhile to change all the [good]/[bad] links in the page, but it might still be a good idea for the "loading..." message to become something like "insufficient MP".

I'm surprised the forum admins haven't noticed this glitch before, considering how often they run out of points .

And soon your HP will be deleted too...moohahaha.

It would be fun to cast spells with mod points.

I was under the impression it was done with AJAX so technically it shouldn't be too hard. Just my opinion

*my* opinion, not *amy*'s.

I've fixed it so that it will tell you you have run out of points. Some day I might make it remove all of the good/bad links, but then someone will point out that they had another window open and it didn't change the links in that window. So maybe I won't bother.

Wait - there's still people not reading each thread in it's own tab?

Sure. Some people use more than one tab per thread, for those lengthy threads out there. Then, one thread doesn't get its own tab, but a bunch of them!

Oh, you meant the other way around. I actually heard someone claim he *disliked* tabs. I swear, them Luddites. They just don't get how awesome Net 2.0 extreme tabs to surf the information superhighway blogs are.
