Nice, fresh new look! - Page 2

What is reputation?
Reputation is a way of rating users depending on the quality of their posts. If the administrators have enabled reputation, then the reputation icon will be visible in posts.
Reputation may be positive , negative or neutral . Negative reputation may only be given if the administrator has enabled this. Neutral reputation is only given when the person giving reputation does not meet the criteria set by the administrator to affect someone else's reputation.
How do I give reputation?
To give reputation, click on the reputation icon in the relevant post. This will reveal a form to complete with the reputation type and the reason for giving the reputation. If negative reputation is disabled then it will not be displayed in this form. You may not give reputation for the same post twice.
How do I know what reputation I have received?
You can view the reputation that you have received in your User CP (User Control Panel) where it is displayed at the bottom of the User CP page. Here you will see the latest reputation that you have received and whether this is positive, negative or neutral. Your total reputation will be shown as series of reputation indicators in your posts and profile. The more positive your reputation, the more positive icons will be shown. The more negative your reputation the more negative icons will be shown.
How much reputation is given? What is reputation power?
If the administrator has enabled this, the amount of reputation that each user will give (or take away if negative) is shown in the user's posts as 'Reputation Power'. The value of the reputation power is determined by the administrator and may increase over time depending on the settings they have applied.
What if I don't want anyone to see my reputation?
You can disable the display of your reputation by going to your User CP and selecting Edit Options. On this page you will find a check box labelled 'Show Your Reputation Level'. Un-checking this box will remove the display of your reputation and replace it with the Reputation Disabled icon. You can still give and receive reputation while your reputation display is disabled.

Thanks, Steve

I find it hard to ***** about something I get for free. I'm glad you got this up and running again.

Tom

Lookin' good. Plus I'm finally on board.

I haven't posted in a long time and I come by every now and then and when I saw the new look I was impressed! I like it. The browser I'm using is Google Chrome and I don't seem to have any problems.

As far as I know, Flyer has gone poof. I could never see any of that umm... character's... posts. I take it I didn't miss anything?

* EDIT * for additional info:
This is pretty neat - the forum took the abbreviation A F A I K that I typed and created the actual words from it....

Basically it's a function which allows other posters to recommend another user/member - using rep power function.
The higher the rep power rating - the more popular the member is (in theory).

We should have minus rep power ratings as well

IMHO, the advertising can stay where it is unless it's related to the purpose of this site. I'd really hate to see this site turn into a BF clone , although the advertising is not the reason I don't visit there anymore.
