Useful sticky but the 'Giving reputation' and 'Deal with annoying..' posts both refer to neg rep.

It's taken me half the day to make the system changes. I have not had a chance to update all the posts that refer to them yet.

OK, sorry Mat but really was not meant to be a criticism.
Realise that there so many things to check out.

I appreciate that all your posts today must have taken lots of your time.

Of course... if anyone fancies writing an updated version of any of these guides (or in fact adding a new one) please feel free. The writers seem to get lots of rep for them.
