Soph the vet Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I'd like to know what to congratulate Doran and others on?:D:confused::D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 It is the "reputation" squares that are to the left side of your posts. Most of us have one square. I think after you've had 100 positive reputation points given to you by your peers, you move up to two squares.:001_wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partyof5 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 From what I can tell...Doran & PariSarah have both received enough positive rep to cross some sort of benchmark...I think I read that it was 100. I have no idea how it all works, but I'll give you some rep for asking and maybe you can let me know if it 'counts'...is it green? blue? gray? :001_huh: worth a try...

Emmy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 do you start with a certain number of reputation points? I've not been clued in to the whole rep point thing until the last couple days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partyof5 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I don't honestly know... I now have a few points from someone and I imagine I had zero before then. I'll send some rep your way and let me know what you get. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 OK I checked my control panel and I got a note from you and a link to this thread but my points didn't go up and the square is blue instead of green. I think that means you don't have enough points to give out rep points which - since our post counts are similar - I would imagine then *I* don't have enough to give out rep points. Hmmmm. It's all a bit confusing. I think I must have started with 10 because I got my first rep point comment that I noticed in the last day or so and it was 11. Does it all have a grand meaning? LOL! :D Edited to add: partyof5 I added to yours, did my square show up green or blue? Oh and duh, I forgot to type anything....oops!

WTMindy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 do you start with a certain number of reputation points? I've not been clued in to the whole rep point thing until the last couple days. I think you start with 8 or 10 or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

partyof5 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Emmy, I saw your rep, but it is indeed blue, not green, and there is no text but now I know it's you. :D Thanks!! Scarlett, I got yours too and it counted of course! Thanks!! Up to 14!! Woohoo!! I think I did start with 10 since after my first rep showed up, I had 11. Okay, now I'm hooked, except I guess I need to post more so my rep counts for all of you... :001_huh: oh, what to say...what to say... Thanks for clearing all of this up wtih me!!

Annie N Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Oh, I really want to give someone points! How do we do that, and do we get a choice as to how many? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I wonder if the rep we give starts counting when we get a certain amount of rep ourselves or when we hit a certain number of posts? Anyone? Thanks Scarlet -and thanks Party of 5 for helping me unravel the mystery LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partyof5 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 You can give rep by clicking on the scales at the top right of any post. Just make a comment and put your name. I'll give you some. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partyof5 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 then you just need to look in the User Control Panel to see it... take a peek! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 annie I added rep for you as well but I don't think mine will count to your point total - the square will probably be blue.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie N Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 You can give rep by clicking on the scales at the top right of any post. Just make a comment and put your name. I'll give you some. :DYikes! I don't see any scales on the top right... what I see is the post number in the darker blue line, then below I see Join Date, Number of posts, and then a little green rectangle. which will give me a message if I put my pointer on it--you are on a distinguished road :) Thanks for the points! I feel bad that I can't reciprocate :o Hmmm, also, they should have a place to keep really great posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partyof5 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Annie, Next to the post number, you should see scales (a balance reallly) and then a triangle (white w/ red border I think). If you click on the scales/balance thing, you should see a drop-down for rep. You don't have that at all? I think I could see it even on my first few posts... hmmm... Who knew there was such a learning curve for posting, huh?! :confused: Just when I think I know what's going on, I learn something new!
