    APs now show the AP poster's username

    As you'll see when you go into your AP Center, all APs show who posted what AP. Hopefully this will encourage folks not to abuse the AP system, and we can get on with the discussions!
    Thanks,

    I'm not sure this is a real good new feature.
    ppl who get negged will get a revange feeling and neg back. This will be an AP abuse since neg won't be a targeting crappy posts but AO members.

    Couldn't u open a debate with a vote script on this topic?

    Thank you for giving this feature a try. I think it's at least worth trying for if it can stop the abuse going on, even if in the end, the idea gets trashed when people attempt to abuse it.

    No system is perfect, but I'm excited about this.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks GG, I appreciate that! Networker, this subject has already been debated to death in the General Chit chat forum. Some have objected, but most like the idea.
    Thanks,

    I like the idea as well, It will stop the people who are just out to balance there antipoints out and the ones who put silly reasons like "You post to much" in the box.
    I have personally made it a habit to sign my points in the past, so hopefully this feature will help improve the site.

    Thank you intmon.
    I think this change will be for the better, as intended.

    Wow, this feature is great. I'm sure the posters such as the one I attached have gotten alot of feedback for posting negs and leaving false names. When did this happen and how much controversy has gone on regarding this? Sorry all, I have been away for a few months.
