Using the "Rec" Function in Comments Section


I feel as though the "rec" function is underutilized here at SSR.

Rec is short for "recommend". After 3 recommendations by different users, a comment will become highlighted in the thread.

You may notice at the end of each comment there is a number of recs.

Example:

Don't mind him.....

He just looks for every possible questionable call he can find to justify his lame screen name.

Now, I've noticed that people like to give "points" in their reply to a particularly funny, insightful, or accurate comment.

In addition to writing "+1", might I suggest you also give a rec?

You do that by clicking on the word "actions" underneath the comment. It will then turn into either "rec" or "flag".

After you click "rec", you will see that the number of recs will increase by one.

You can only rec a comment once.

After 3 recs by 3 different users, the comment will turn green, highlighting it so that all will stop and take a look at the comment!

(Go ahead and use this thread to practice your "rec"ing skills, and rec some comments to see them turn green!)
