Title says it all. Here are some of guidelines the system will follow for now. This is subject to change.

For every 30 days, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.

For every 25 posts, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.

For every 20 points of reputation, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.

How many posts must a user have before his reputation hits count on others? 25

How much reputation must a user have before his reputation hits count on others? 25

How many reputation clicks can a user give over each 24 hour period? 5

How many different users must you give reputation to before you can hit the same person again? 10

We will see how these settings play out and I will alter them if need be.

I am working on limiting forum use for reputation but its a custom hack so it will take some time.

Board supporters, Gold Members can SEE who left reputation. Registered members cannot.

what do the light green dots versus the dark green dots mean?

**Dwight Schrute** · 11-01-2005, 07:19 PM

Colors change the more you get.

You were grey, now you are green

not to sound like a tard, but how do you leave rep points for ppl?

**Dwight Schrute** · 11-01-2005, 09:05 PM

See the scale icon at the bottom left of your profile? Click it.

New rep points will show on the main page at the top right along with your new PM's and also NEW posts since you last visited.

**CROWLER** · 11-01-2005, 11:01 PM

I just wanted to post so I could see how many rep points I have.

I am not too familure with them but why does Tatoo up above have more posts but less rep points than Hypo up above.

Tatoo this isn't personal lol

I am guessing it is because alot of Tatoos posts were in an area of the board where a person does not get rep points for the posts they make?

Your rep points are based on mostly what other people give you. Although post count plays a very SMALL role in gaining points you can gain points but its miniscule compared to what you receive fomr quality posts.

In Hypos case, I repped him which means it gives him 10 points rather than 1.

When admin's rep, its 10 points given.

**Dwight Schrute** · 11-01-2005, 11:07 PM

Have some for starters

Damn Bobo, I didn't even know yellow was possible.

I like the idea, let's see how well it works at a board with some sense.

**CROWLER** · 11-01-2005, 11:08 PM

A lot has changed on this board since I have been here. I am not sure about the rep points if I like them, It just reminds me of bb.com a lot, plus I am not sure if it will always show who more knowledgable people are. Guess I'll give it a shot.

LOL, yeah the ones you would get on your hand.

I'm just not sure about the comment when you place your arrow over the points, your said a glorious beacon of light, I find that humerous.

**Matthew D** · 11-01-2005, 11:15 PM

Ha...those are the default ones. I can change it to whatever people want. It doens't work in Firefox though. I had to use IE to see it.

You did know there was a karma system here before bb.com ever had any rep points, right?

But when the kiddies over there use it, its a bit different than over here.
