Our Reputations

I have a few questions about the reputation button:


Why do we have forum reputations?

How do you get a bad one?

What does off the scale mean?

How many points can we get?

What do the points mean?

it's just a new feature in the new version of vbulletin. it's basically a popularity thing. if you write a helpful post, people can give you points. if you are annoying, they can give you negative points. the person with the most points is supposedly the most helpful and/or liked.

no one here uses it, so just ignore it.

0kay. but someone uses it, cause I have 10 whole points.

Thanks for your informative answer.

yeah very good answear i gave him some points for that one..

i think everyone starts with 10 points...

Words from the man with the highest repuation :p

I gotta admit though.....i do like the repuation. The whole points/green dot system doesnt matter all that much to me.......but what i like is the comment part in the profile. Not only is it nice to know your not a complete jackass (sorry to the negative pointers out there) but its actually kind useful in a way as you know what thread you got the points for and hopefully why you got the points.

It'd be a great feature if it was just a comment thing (getting rid of the "reputation"). Though i guess that'd be the same as PM's lol

Never really bothered with the points system. I've been here from the start, and I'm still here. That's all that matters.

I have nevative 100,000 points :(

Then how come you are on the distinguished road?

:P
