Reputation points

[seylectric]

What are they exactly and how are they attained?

 

Just curious to be honest.

[Movingon]

Flippin 'eck Sey, and you've been here HOW long?!

 

They are a method of showing if people like what you post. If you want to give them away, click the Awesome Scales of Justice at the top right of a post. As you get more of them yourself, your Power to affect other people's rating increases. You'll see that I have a veritable PLETHORA of green blobs... that means I'm utterly fantastic. Less green blobs either means "very new and not many posts" or "Gosh I have a lot of posts but not many people like what I've said" or even "Nobody seems to use the scales any more "

 

A red blob means the Mods have taken away from your reputation, because you gave bad advice, or made a twit of yourself at the expense of other users. Two red blobs mean "ignore this person he gives dangerous, misleading or just downright BAD advice on a regular basis". I don't think someone would make it to three blobs without being banned to be honest...

Thanks, I do add to other people's from time to time but never really took a lot of notice of them personally and wasn't too sure what their purpose was.

[Movingon]

LOL - and despite you having three green blobs, you have no power to affect my reputation... LOL. You gave me a grey blob *sigh*

 

Thanks for thinking of me though

[seylectric]

A grey blob?

[Movingon]

Click "User CP" and it shows you the last 4 reputation points you received... if the person giving had some "Rep giving power" they show a green blob next to their comment. If they have NO rep-giving power, they do not affect your rep score, and they show a GREY blob next to their rep comment.

I too didnt know what these blobs were for, lol. Thanks for the explanation. So if for example I gave you Stone a tilt on the scapes am I right on thinking it would make no differance to you as your higher than me ? I got a few people giving rep points that are gray, so this is becasue they got no power to give right ? . weird if you ask me lol.

[Movingon]

No, you gain rep-giving power in your own right; so for instance if you have a rep giving power of 10, every time you click someone's scales they get 10 points, regardless of their current score. It just takes a while to get any points, that's all

I know and have experienced the mods and their moods.

I clicked on user cp and couldn't see the last 4 points - am I being a bitthick or something?

Scroll down - below your subscribed threads.

Found it now -had 2 green blobs added yesterday when do they go on my blob collection? Is a weekly thing or something?

[barracad]

Two comments don't represent two blobs.

 

Each comment will have a number of 'points' associated with it depending on who gave you the rep.

 

You get an extra blob each time you reach a certain number of points.

Right I think I understand - this is harder to grasp than OU degree!

[seylectric]

Glad it's not just me then!

[Mrgreengenes]

Hey, I've got 2 grey blobs and 1 reputation point. Whoohoo!

 

Did you know that the Euro Millions jackpot has rolled over again. Next week it may reach

£100,000,000!!! ;-)

 

If my syndicate wins, we will all be millionaires. We only need to match 5 numbers as all Lucky Star numbers are covered.:grin:

 

Hey, maybe this tip will get me another grey blob or even another point.

[Movingon]

LOL you get points just for being cheeky! (No idea how many you got though...)

[Mrgreengenes]

Thanks, I just got 54 points.

 

And I've just become a Classic Account Customer. Whoohoo.

[seylectric]

Keep the points, I want those Euromillions! (sorry Mrgreengenes, I'm already in the same syndicate)

[Guest HUSBANDKHAN]

I had a green blob for 3 hours this morning and it went red again.

Have you seen a Dr? Could be serious!

[Guest HUSBANDKHAN]

The doctor says it is not unusual for this sort of thing to happen with the type of work i am doing. He was surprised it didnt go septic.

[lookinforinfo]

Errrrrrmmmmmmm............there are at least three posts missing on this thread -Allyxia, Seylectric and one of mine??????

[Guest HUSBANDKHAN]

Ask the mods. they have negatived me for god knows what.

[Mrgreengenes]

I've got 2 green blobs now. Whoohoo!

 

Husbandkhan, I've tried to click your scales but the site won't let me yet.
