gamefood: You mean "stay logged in" like "never log out"? I wouldn't feel comfortable to do that :/
Cookies gonna be deleted on closing that's right BUT GOG is on the white list and there are GOG-cookies left but anyhow not the needed info that I'm home. This info is somehow lost everytime, and that's frustrating :(
Try to add login.gog.com to your whitelist maybe? :)

MarkoH01: Regarding the rep abuse possibility: Wouldn't it be the easiest way to just prevent negative reps in general? I mean what's the reason for a negative rep at all? It also would not be a perfect solution but at least this might prevent hate downreps like they happened so often to honorable users we all know here. I never understood why I should downrep anyone at all. Because he/she was asking for a game to get gifted? It's not a crime and it's up to me to decide if I want to gift something or not. If it is in case a person who is known to be a scammer imo it's better to simply write this in another post instead of simply downrepping - this way anybody would see that this person really is a scammer and people could also add them to the loooong list opf known scammers - if there is actual proof for it of course. Reading that people receive death threats in a gaming forum is shocking me to say the least. We are talking of entertainment, of video games - nothing more. Nobody deserves to be threaten because of such things. And in case someone was posting something which is against the forum rules the person should not be downrepped but reported to the GOG stuff who then really should look into the matter if they should receive multiple reports.

Of course that is only my own opinion and people might see it different but I just wanted to point it out since you are listening to our feedback :)
You're right, but so is Tauto in saying reporting can also be abused. I got requests to perm ban people on my first day, without actually knowing who I'm supposed to be banning and why. That's not fair either.

The rep system will be re-vamped or scrapped altogether, or at least that's what I've been working on. We also need to make sure spam-marked posts don't get automatically deleted because that makes it really hard to enforce any rules or guidelines, since there's no traceable proof of the rules being broken.

MarkoH01: That's why I said GOG should look into such reports. Of course it's not correct to simply ban anybody just because another said so. In most cases however people will be able to provide some proof of why such people should be banned. No ban without proof and everybody is innocent until proven guilty. It's quite simple imo. But great to hear that you are really planning to revamt the rep system which basically is not a bad idea just the way it works now is not so great.

Also I think it's great that you, fables22 are so often here. It really shows that you care and that you really want the feedback. I would give you +1 if I could :)

That can be abused also,just ask fables how many cryers he got the first day about me.

MarkoH01: I know Tauto that you and I are thinking the same regarding false bans or false accusations (at least I do think so). I don't want anybody to be marked as a bad person or even banned just because another one said so. I just want GOG to LOOK into the matter and see if there is actual proof for the report. In most cases there ist. Seomtimes if there is no proof you simply can't do anything against to prevent that innocent people will be punished but it's still much better than the actual way.
Yea, of course. People should still be able to report posts as spam to alert us to dangerous and/or offensive content. But it can't get deleted automatically, because then we look for proof that's not there. I'm glad you agree.

tinyE: To your knowledge is there any way to stop someone from trying to constantly friend you? :P

Don't laugh, that is a real honest to god question, and no, I haven't been drinking.
To my knowledge, not really. (not laughing)
