Rep Power.

[Daniel Umberger]

I'm still new too this whole posting forums, so I was just wondering what is the deal with rep power? And can anyone see if I have any, if I have any?

[TheTruth08]

I don't get it either.

[jp1390]

once you have over 50 posts you're rep power can go over 0.

check your user cp to see who's repped or negged you.

grey reps are when the person who repped you had 0 reps.

when you rep someone, the rep power they receive is your rep power, (beside green blocks) divided by 1000.

when you neg someone, the neg power they receive is your rep power, (beside green blocks) divided by 2000.

Rep power is stupid this one guy gave me -2000 for posting in an old thread... I didn't even realise it too :\

You always have to be on the lookout for negs hiding in the shadows.. It could be anything from posting in a dead thread to acting like a "beta *******" to writing beta ******* with ironic citation marks.. The negs lure around every corner in the bb forum. Beware...

[Gingerbaby]

Why should it matter if you post in an old thread? If the information is still relevant I don't see the issue...? Better to build on what's already on here than to start a whole new thread IMO.

What you did there, I saw it.

[ShaunJames90]

From what I can see your rep power says 19. You have to post over 50 posts I think before you start getting rep. And each time you post or reply or something your rep goes up. I think anyway... I'm new to this site, but just from what I have read.

Not really.

You have to have 50 posts for your rep power to count, and you recieve reps from other people not based on your post count but based on how many people decide to give you reps.

Generally positive reputation points (green) is given to good posters whereas negative reputation points (red) is given to bad posters. Until you have 50 posts your reps will not count and they will be grey, once you reach 50 posts you can give positive or negative reputation points, also known as "reps" and "negs".

The way reputation is added is like this: if I give reps to you, my rep power (which is about 6000) will be divided by 1000 and then added to your rep power, So if I rep you your rep power would be 6 once you get to 50 posts

Negs deduct points from the recipient, and the way reputation is deducted is like this: If I give negs to you my rep power is divided by 2 and then divided by 1000, since negs deduct rep power from the recipient they have been constructed in a way that makes negs have less impact

Example: your rep power is 10, I rep you, your rep power becomes 16.
If I was to neg you when your rep power is 10 your rep power would become 7.

I hope that cleared some stuff up, if you have any questions feel free to ask me

Yeah one guy did that to me as well then another guy marked mine as spam even though i entered an open and active contest. there are people out here trying to damage other reps and opportunities for their own personal amusement. i wish they would clean that up a bit and make them give a good reason why your giving a negative rep

[callit]

All I know is that if you have a lot of red bars it means people hate you.... like a lot.....

[BrahmaDeej]

ques to 40

I am assuming you cannot ask for rep.

nice, that helps.

[letsgettoned]

Yeah, I have no idea why my rep power is very negative since I'm new-ish to the forum and have never posted anything negative.

[QuickReflection]

I have a question..

My rep went up by a single point recently.. I checked my rep and haven't received any new reputation. Why did this happen?
