    Default REPPING FAQs

    well i need answers... lol and my answers will help others. I wonder how you're suppose to REP people and give them a correct amount of points. i say when someone repped me and they had about 7+ bars, i get alot of points added to my rep count. then again, someone else rep me and i get ONE points and that person has like 3 bars. Does writing a REP COMMENT help give out more points?

    so basically guy 1 has five green bars and he reps me with no rep comment, i get only 1 bar.

    guy 2 has about the same and writes something and i get 5 bars.

    guy 3 has 5 bars and reps me without saying anything, i get two..?

    i dont know how this rep thing works. i wanna give out the deserved points. =D

    Reps are a reward and they are based on some calculation that none of know. You have been told the basics, but none of us knows the exact calculation.

    Like Scots said Time here+How many you have+Posts = how many you are worth. Negatives are worth less then how many poz you are worth. Writing in the box has nothing to do with it. So when I neg you in a sec, even if I don't write anything it will still take the same number away.

    lol well no matter the exact calculation, the best way to NOT get good reps is to post in a thread that is all about asking for them. Keep that in mind and read what Tracy wrote and you'll be good.

    Do a search on threads that QD started and you will find that some months back he found something that talked about exactly how rep points work.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    found this:

    Your Reputation Power is the number of points you give when you rep someone else, and is calculated as follows ;

    Your Green (positive) Reputation Power is ;
    .

    * One point for every 1000 posts you have made.
    * One point for every 250 points of reputation you have.
    * One point for each 365 days you have been a member.

    Your Red (negative) repping power is half of your green repping power.

    For a rep to count you must have at least 10 points, and have made at least 1 post. Non counting reps are displayed as Grey.

    You can give a maximum of 20 reputation "hits" per 24 hour period, and must rep at least five different people before you can rep the same person again (Administrators are exempt from these two limits).

    A number of green & golden pips are used to show other users your reputation level. The first five pips are dull green, the next five are bright green, then you can have up to 10 golden pips (after that is currently a secret).

    Each pip in it's color group has a set value.

    found this too:

    How many Reputation points can I give?
    When you first become a member, and after you've made ten posts, your Reputation actions are worth one point. However, your Reputation power increases over time.

    Bonuses: For every 90 days you're a member, you get an additional point of power (so each click is then worth two points, for example). For every 100 posts you make, you get an additional point of power. And for ever 50 Reputation points you receive from other members, you get an additional point of power. So if you're an active and longtime member, you'll find the Reputation ranks you give to posts can carry quite a bit of weight.

    Limits: As mentioned above, you need to have made at least ten posts on the forum before your Reputation actions have any effect. Also, you can assign Reputation points to only ten posts per day (so save them for truly the best or worst posts). And you have to assign Reputation points to at least ten different members before you can assign them to a member a second time (so spread the wealth!).

    Finally, if your Reputation score falls below 10 points — the number you get when you first join — you lose the ability to participate in the Reputation system.
    Val for president!
