Reputation points

[rbedgood]

I'm trying to understand these...I know that they are awarded by others, but I am slightly confused as to how many you get when someone awards them. I have 3 people that have generously complemented me in this way. However after the first 2 I had 62 points (or about 31 each) and the third gave me 38 more?!?

[Chiefster]

The more rep one has, the more they can award.

[rbedgood]

So rep points from you are like gold...

[Chiefster]

Well maybe white gold; rep points from Guru are the real gold mines. :D

[Coach]

Rep point values are based on the #of posts, rep, length of membership, and probably a few other things that i'm forgetting. But that's the just of it.

So when I give rep it's like .5 points based on the above calculations!

The only thing I really have against rep points is that the top however many are listed. I dunno, I guess I hate competitions. Well, and losing "popularity contests". Rep points are for saving the little posts of "Yeah, I agree," or "No, I disagree" without making it public or going through the trouble of pm'ing. I like the idea of "rep", I just don't see why there are point values applied.

Who said anything about it being a contest?

[Guru]

I would like to see rep used correctly. Don't rep everything under the sun just because you might agree with everything. Rep an outstanding post. Too many people will just rep a post because a certain person posted it.

[Coach]

I personally only rep on outstanding posts. I don't usually negative rep, unless someone is being a jackbag.

[spiman]

Is a jackbag something Santa Clause brings me in his bag every year? It must be this time of year it brings the best and worst in people. (Like rep points)

[Guru]

Yeah, I am with you there. I don't go throwing rep around unless the posts truly warrants it.

Guru? Does that guy still post here?

[rbedgood]

Chiefster, you discount your value. Sure you PW better than most, however you also drop a pearl of wisdom on occasion that merits the delivery of postive rep. I have only used negative rep a couple of times personally, and as mentioned above only in the case of an extreme jacka$$ moment. I believe the now departed Smed was the primary focus of my "wrath". There was also one other (not to be named) who has since redeemed himself and earned positive rep.

Luv would like rep points if she was ranked #1...but otherwise she doesn't like competition. (j/k Luv)

[Coach]

I changed the reputation bars as you've probably noticed.

Dark Green dots for every 150 pts (5 max)
Light Green for every 250 pts (5 max)
Gold dots for every 500 pts (5 max)
Yellow circle with #58 in it for every 4500 points (no max)

[Canada]

uhhhh.....I am pretty sure I posted that we should change the rep a few minutes ago....pay up!!

[hermhater]

So the Gold circle is the base score, then the bars add to it?

[Guru]

It is not quite adding up for me but Coach may not be done tweaking yet.

[Coach]

It is not quite adding up for me but Coach may not be done tweaking yet.

As of this post your rep score is 11372.

You have the following rep dots:

2 #58's @ 4500 each = 9000
5 dark green @ 150 = 750
5 light green @ 250 = 1250
1 gold dot @ 500 = 500

The score is rounded up since everyone starts with one dark green. Hopefully this all makes sense.

Don't lose any sleep over it. The more "Yellow #58's" you have, the better. That's pretty much all you need to know. The only reason I changed it was because everyone had topped out the old reputation system. Everyone had 11 dots.

[Canada]

Do I still have a reputation beyond repute??

Does every user give the same amount of points regardless of the amount of rep they have?

No the more rep you have, the more rep power you give. A newbie gives very few points. But your current rep power is 146 points. Guru has rep power of 243. Chiefster has power of 249. Rep power is based off of several factors including # of posts, rep points, and how long you have been a member of ChiefsCrowd.com.

It calculates itself. I do nothing.

Hello

[Coach]

I have updated the rep point structure a touch. So if you have less #58's, don't be alarmed. You still have the same rep points. It just takes more point to earn a #58 now. I had to do some tweaking because of the rep whores around here.

Agreed; and I would also like to say that while I appreciate the rep given, I also would like to ask that folks not give me rep just for the sake of giving rep, but to rep only those post replies you feel are rep worthy. Also, do not feel obligated to give me rep simply because I may have given rep to you.

But when you give rep it says you might be fortunate to get rep in return.

I am so confused.

Giving rep is one of the few things we can control on the site, so I say go for it!

Why is it such a concern that people give Rep? I sometimes like to give Rep just cause I like someone, but if that is a problem then I will stop. sorry

It's fine to give rep; for my end it's much appreciated, and you're right it is "one of the few things" controlled by all. I just didn't want anyone to feel obligated to give me rep simply because I had given them rep is all. Rep is a measure of how well one is liked and respected, all that I ask is that members (speaking of no one in particular) be careful not to use it frivolously and that when at all possible to spread it around. :)

No concern and apology necessary; it's simply that Coach needed to tweak it a little in order to preserve screan real estate. And, there is nothing wrong with repping a person because they are well liked. I simple said what I did for the purposes stated above. :)
