@barbudo2005 It's what's called Braggin' Writes

[barbudo2005]

To incentivize donations I suggest that the person who donates should have their reputation raised in the proportion of 4 times (or whatever the team's affection is) what they donate.

@jane-n Vivaldi webmail puzzles me. I subscribed to it and set up an account when I moved to Vivaldi the year before last, and I used it intermittently to contact a couple of fellow Vivaldi bloggers. In all that time, I have probably no more than a dozen Received mails. Does this imply I haven't obtained a "reputation" yet? I didn't realise I had to do that to use the webmail....

Please enlighten me!

I am just waiting when you remove/replace that blue background with gradient from forum dark theme (where Home - Categories - Unread, etc are ) and make it narrow.

I don't think there's any correlation between amount of received email and your forum reputation? And you already have access to Webmail obviously..? confused

I mean if you want more email just use it to register on some dodgy sites and I promise your inbox will soon be filled with lots of mail from nice ladies asking for your attention and Nigerian princes with business proposals

@Stardust Do you like the gradient?
All hail the gradient, the gradient is ultimate, the gradient eclipses everything.

it feels outdated and doesn't match the dark theme

[barbudo2005]

@Stardust

How can you ask to change that in the Forum, if it is at your disposal to change it with Stylus?

[Stardust]

@barbudo2005 I have never changed any site style manually before and do not plan to use 3rd party extensions for that.

[barbudo2005]

@Stardust

Why?

It's entertaining and you know better than anyone what is important to highlight on a site and what is distracting and annoying.

Or are you afraid of 3rd party extensions like @Catweazle?

[Stardust]

@barbudo2005 I prefer to use minimal extensions. And forum issue is not that critical to me that I would fix it on my side

[Catweazle]

@barbudo2005, I'm not afraid of third party extensions, IMHO it's better to use the less possible, most extensions in the Store are anyway redundant in Vivaldi., with Mv3 even more.. For some functions I prefer Desktop apps (eg.Screenshot/cast)

@Pathduck I think we looked into PayPal as well, but for some reasons it wasn't a fit.

[jane.n]

@DoctorG, those should not have been visible. Thanks for drawing our attention to it, we'll remove them.

@TravellinBob

The reputation rule only applies to people who created their account after May 4th, 2023. As a spam prevention measure, the service is now available only for people, who are active community members.

You have permanent access to Vivaldi Webmail or as long as you keep your Vivaldi account active (this requires logging in to ANY Vivaldi service at least once every 6 months).

[TravellinBob]

Thank you for the information, much appreciated

[DoctorG]

@jane-n Fixed now.
