 I agree, or have it moved to another location? I rather liked the wide forum...

		 Ever since this was implemented, I can barely make posts. When I hit "post reply" I can type normally for about one second and then the punch tab loads and I can't type anything. The chat box becomes unclickable and I can't type anything in it. Ditto for the quick reply box, can't click/type.  
 
I made this post by typing this message out in notepad, copying it, hitting post reply and pasting before that little red ****er of a ribbon could load.

		 I agree with the above posters about moving the ribbon to another location.  Also, I "liked" MI on Facebook, but I'm not getting any points

		Yes, there seems to be something conflicting with the post editor script.  
I'll take down the rewards ribbon on all pages until we can figure that out. 
 
In the meantime you can access the ribbon on this special page:  http://macinsiders.com/index.php?page=reward  s

 if you comment on the facebook each day(click the arrow on the tab under "do these daily!")  then you can get another 100 points daily.

		 So... it looks like the redeemable rewards change monthly? 
And unfortunately the ebay.com & amazon.com gift cards are useless because you can't use .com cards on the canadian sites, and the american sites don't ship to Canada. 
  
Is there anyway to fix this?
