I don't see why adding images in the background of your profile is bad.

The multiple creators for levels thing has potential to be abused, as previously shown. So perhaps before any of the co-authors are added to the level, they first need to confirm that they actually made the level.
So if I make a level and add Quirvy as co-author, Quirvy will get a notification that someone has made a level with him as co-author. Then he can click "yes, I made this level" and he gets added, or "no, I didn't make this level" and he doesn't get added as co-author.

The problem is that you're neezles so it's hilarious instead of ban-worthy.

*Random Bump*
Wait I have an idea. Well since no one can Karma rate pages or posts or levels or videos after 10 days, even if you have never even seen that post or level or video or topic, you still can't karma rate it after the 10 days. An example would be a level like For Seasons: I became more active after the 10 days had passed for sure, but I had never even heard if it until a few months ago when I was looking through the level database. For Seasons is a really cool level and I wanted to up vote it... But I couldn't because 10 days had passed since it was released. Even though I had no clue it existed. That's why I think that when a post or something is issued, the 10 days thing should only apply to members WHO HAVE SEEN that posts already. So, if someone suddenly became inactive, and they missed a really cool level that they would have wanted to up vote, when they return they should be able to karma rate things they had never seen before. I don't think this will cause any problems and it's a simple concept so I do wonder why it hasn't been implemented yet.

it's a little problematic, because, for example, I opened Sharks in Venice 2 like a week ago and the tab is still open because I haven't played it yet - no time - so does the counter count?
and what about the 'read later' button.? will it reset the count?

If you want to show that you liked a level, you should simply rate it. I don't really know why we have karma on levels, to be honest.

In the case of Four Seasons, I don't see the point. Clearly the membership before you came along has gotten across the point that it's a pretty good level. Ckjr isn't even active anymore. We have a relatively small memberbase; seeing a level has 7 karma as opposed to 8 probably will not be the deciding factor in whether or not someone plays a level. It has one of the highest ratings to begin with.
I also see a problem as to where if someone joined, and decided to read all the topics, people with high post counts like Livio, Shos, Quirvy, Isa, Jellsprout, Me, Silver, Krotomo, and Jazz could gain hundreds of karma if this new member saw fit, or if even just went along and added their own rating to a post every time they saw one with lots of up votes.
Ultimately to me, it boils down to due to the small community, few things slip through the cracks in terms of what does/n't deserve +/- karma; I guarantee that almost any post people would rate would already have been rated at some point or another, and the world won't end just because a good joke a karma worthy post was left unvoted. I understand your desire to express your opinion via, but your opinion probably differs little compared to everyone elses', and I don't see a reason overall.

Is it possible that we can see when people edit their posts? Even if it's just something right after "Tuesday, December 10 2013, 6:23 pm EST" that says EDITED: 6:25 PM or whenever it's edited.

I second this. Even something like an asterisk after the date would be nice.

What would be the purpose of this? Just to know that a post was edited at some point?
I don't really like it because I edit my posts a lot (well, maybe not that much), usually when I notice I made a mistake somewhere, and I don't like that stuff because it draws attention to the fact that the post is edited even if that's completely irrelevant, so for me, instead of focusing entirely on the content of the post, I see that _________ edited their post and wonder what that was about when in reality it's just something as insignificant as fixing a typo. It's a pretty weak argument, but I don't really see how adding something to signify that a post was edited adds anything. Most of the time, I'd prefer to not know that someone edited their post. The only thing I can think of is like recently when Yimmy got -1'd for a post he made, so he completely changed the post, leading to the question of why did that post get -1'd, but even if you put something there to indicate it was edited, you're still probably going to ask (either to yourself or publicly) what it said to deserve the -1.
My thoughts in short: I'm not a fan, and even so I don't feel like it would be worth adding considering how little time Livio is around to add features to the site.

The reason I suggested it was because of what happened with yimmy. Though it's something pretty small, it's just something that would be nice to have if it didn't take that much time.

I'm more with Quirvy on this one. I'd say 33% of the time I correct a post after replying due to grammar/spelling issues. In situations like Yimmy's, in the past people have usually put a reason why they edited their post inside the edited post; if they don't do that, I don't see why the feature should be implemented just to avoid the occasional awkward conversation.
Two other sites I use have a similar feature. One, edited posts are marked as edited and its never questioned because it's just assumed to be a typo. The other, you have the option to mark a post edited while editing it, and you can even add a short reason as to why you edited it in a separate box. Either way, the effects they have seem to be marginal since it's limited to so few situations. It doesn't seem like it's worth the trouble to add it.

Would it be possible for users to modify what appears beneath users' avatars? I personally don't find it very necessary to see the age, gender, location or pm/email links of everyone and in small posts it is getting a bit cluttered.

I like Jell's suggestion. The fact that with a small post the space you take up can be extended from seeing the gender of the person again is kind of annoying. That's one of the reasons that I don't have an avatar myself, so then I keep a low and stealth profile with my name in huge letters in my signature.
