Reputation Points?

[NemesisEnforcerFan]

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=Indigo][SIZE=2]Okay whilst reading a thread just now.. I noticed that a :) face in the corner.. when pressed it says I have 12 reputation points.. so.. what is this for and what does it mean and change on the forums?
Is it your status? Your ego? I just also wondered who else actually uses this feature..? Or if anyone knew of its existance?[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT]

Wow, apparently I have 10 rep points... rock on! :D

I would think it's just like 'karma' on other forums; people use it to say whether they like or dislike your posts, and they get tallied up there. I doubt it has any actual effect on anything.

For each thread that a person posts on, any other member(s) can approve or disapprove 'reputation' points, depending on what said person has contributed to that thread.

Does it have any 'real' signifigance?? It does if you keep getting 'diapproved'. It's like a 'red flag', you know?? If you keep getting 'approved' then you follow the 'distinguished path'.............whatever the hell that means, I haven't found that out yet!! :p

Does that help you out?? :)

Ok, if you click on, say, my smilie face, a small box will appear and ask you if you approve of my post on this thread. You can 'approve' or 'disapprove', and then you can list a comment either way (that part is optional). The more 'approvals' a person gets, the better for them. A bunch of 'disapprovals' sets off a 'flag' on the poster and they get warned. A bunch of warnings will lead to banning.

Oh, and you can't give yourself extra points................ ;)



How's that??? :confused: :)

I gave you some good reputation points Nemesis, just cause. But I did not know about the smiley face either.
