Rep Power

What's this all about?

Is it like Max Power - the name that you want to touch?

Re: Rep Power

I have no idea what Rep Power is either.
At this point in time I'm a 3 and you're a 0, but I don't know what that means.


Gandalf please enlighten us.

Re: Rep Power

At first I thought it had to do with post count, or the green box thing.

I wonder if my 'negative comments' mean I get zero rep?

Re: Rep Power

I figure 3 is better than 0 because greg willis is a 13, but I could be wrong.

Re: Rep Power

Sorry guys the site went through a recent upgrade and it appears a setting was turned on for this. This setting was on before and caused a few problems. People were abusing it by giving people a negative reputation just because they disagreed with them. I have removed it again as I don't feel that there is any real need for it here on GTO.

It's gone :-(

Oh well, easy come easy go.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Re: Rep Power

OK guys I made an error in removing the user rep as well as rep power. Rep power basically tells how much weight a user has when he rates others posts (this has now been removed). The user rep "little green dots" above each post are handy for others to see how helpfull you have been in helping others with their game, i.e. good constructive posts. You can add to a users rep by clicking the "was i helpfull" button above a post that you think has helped you.

Hope this makes things clear. Enjoy.

Re: Rep Power

Cool.

I just boosted both of your guy's reps.

Internet fun.

Thanks again.
