Lindsey Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Can someone explain how the reputation part of ones profile works? Thanks At the bottom right corner of each post, there is a green "+" and red "-" sign. If you think a post was particularly good/meaningful/insightful, just press the green "+" button and you give that post "one positive rep." This means that when you go to that person's profile, they will have an additional positive rep. Of course you can also give negative rep, and that will detract from a person's "rep" amount, and can go into the negatives. Accumulating "rep" in either direction (positive or negative) is supposed to assign some sort of numeric value to a person's reputation. A lot of positive rep means that person has a good reputation (obvious, but might as well say it). A lot of negative rep means that person has probably been putting out some "bad" posts, whether they be rude/derogatory, etc. Hope this helps,Lindsey 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldy Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Hahaha. Now I'll give you a "+" for giving me a plus. See how ridiculous the system is? Hey wait a minute ! I want a plus sign too! I had no idea what those symbols did. Is that cause I'm over 50? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 This rampant disregard for the sanctity of rep can only lead to mega inflation like Zimbabwe. Maybe, though, I'll +rep you snowman to makeup for the fact that you are in Vail, I'm sorry for your loss. You should come out Aspen, we can make everything ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll go study the FAR's instead. I would give you a "+", Goldy, but you haven't given me one yet! :P I should give you a negative rep for going and studying the FARs instead of participating in a rep war. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindsey Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 You get a plus for smiling!!! Yay! Oh, and I gave you one to make up for your -2. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 + for everyone, Lindsey sorry I think I just gave you a -, the icon is so small on my iPod and I have fat fingers. Really I'm not lying, by the way don't let some AH turn you off of Colorado, it's a great state. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindsey Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 + for everyone, Lindsey sorry I think I just gave you a -, the icon is so small on my iPod and I have fat fingers. Really I'm not lying, by the way don't let some AH turn you off of Colorado, it's a great state. I was gonna give you negative rep for the first part, then I read the second sentence. Thanks, it means a lot. I really was pumped for Colorado. This whole thing has sort of soured my enthusiasm. Maybe eventually I'll get out there. For now...it's just really unfortunate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
