devrantdotnet's Issues

"rt" and "rc"

devRant seems to have changed away from num_upvotes and num_downvotes but there's 2 new properties named rc and rt which should be added to the Rant and Comment models.

Suggestion: Update documentation

Just a little change I suggest:

This:

Property	Description
vote_state	int - ?

To this:

Property	Description
vote_state	int - The current user's vote state (0 = no vote, 1 = ++, -1 = --). Always 0 if the parameters user_id, token_id and token_key are missing (aka. not logged user)
