  1. Yes this is the point the key should be unique if you intend to send someone a referral / invite the the forum that is fine.

    What the problem is would be spammers are using the fact the URL is static and you can manufacture the URL they are now using it as a vector and way of spamming other members for no reason it causes confusion and more explanation than it's worth as most people don't know they have referrals. 

    I had to disable the entire referral system because of this. 

  2. I don't think it's a good idea to use the the members ID as the referrer and should be dynamically generated. it's too easy for actors to spoof this:  

    domain.com/?&_rid=#####

    seeing a rise in people registering via a link without it being initiated from the member. 

  3. So I was reading a post by a user and I noticed at the bottom it was edited by someone else. The name wasn't a moderator or anyone who would have permissions to edit another's post. It would appear that the user made the post then edited their post then changed their display name - however the "edited by" remain the previous name. Also when I searched for the old name it didn't find any member.

    Is it possible when a name change happens, that any edited posts reflect the change? 

    I know there is a history of changed names on the user profile and in the recent account activity. 

    It would be nice if you search for a member from ACP it would find the new person if searched on the old name. 
     

  4. I guess my thought was just like the widget's upcoming events,  as an event approaches it could nice for it to be promoted in the activity stream as it is relevant. Currently, it only shows up in the activity feed on the date it's added to the feed which could have been weeks or months back as it is not repeated.
