What's with that?

[Shawna Bride]

Anyone notice the green things on the top right of people's posts? When I put my mouse over it it says "Shawna will be famous yet" or something like that.
What is that?
Some people it says ".. has a brilliant future"

hmmmmm

It is called a 'Reputation' members can give points per say to others. We you get alot of agreeing 'points' you gain more bars, :) when you get disagreeing ones, you get the red bar :( I think it also has something to do with how many posts you make and how long you have been a member as well.

You can click on the little scale icon and add to a users reputation. Then you can go in the User CP and see what others have left for you.

Hope that helps ;)

*Hey look, this is my 1001 post :D*

How do people 'vote' for your reputation anyway?

With the little scale icon just above the green bar (in the dark blue part) click on that and it will give you an option to Agree or Disagree, then you type in a little message and boom, you have added to someones 'Reputation' You cannot add to the same person back to back, they make you spread it around ;)

Oh, I get it now.... interesting!

See, I was going to just add to yours and just say 'Yeah' but now I have to 'spread the love' ;)

Dont feel bad Shawna, I know how to give rep and where to look at rep given to me, but still dont have the 1st clue as to what it actually means!

LOL ... It doesn't really mean anything supper important. It is just a way for users to rank each other. We can give 'props' to the good posts and make people feel special ;) And for those that like to spam and such we can tell them how we feel about that too :wink:
