I already don't like the way clicking on +merit takes you away from the thread. Can you please have it open in a new window?
Agree 100% with this. A new window, or maybe just code in a little box next to the post where you can type the Merit you want to give and then hit Give or something.
We're working with cutting edge technology and the best we can do for this is a new tab for giving merit? How about a pop-up box, or like Kiritsugu said, if you click on "+ Merit", have a box slide open with the options. We really do not need a new tab just to give merit.
Also it also would be nice if "Report to Moderator" did not take you away from the thread. Lots of spam that needs to be reported these days.
