Reputation points

**Bumblebee** · 08-05-2006, 22:54

Is there a way to find out who left a specific comment/point? I just got a red one and while I know why I would like to know from who.

**wingstoo** · 08-05-2006, 22:58

Blimey, didn't know about these, where do you find them?

I must have about minus 200,000,000 at the moment

Not as far as I know Mate....I think it's better that way. Over on BB for example people can see who's left what and when I left what I thought was valid feedback (albeit negative) for a senior member I suddenly found I'd got heaps back from them and that's just pointless as it become tit-for-tat.

Don't worry about it....others are entiltled to their thoughts so as long as you are happy with what you say then that's all that counts

Cheers,

Bam.

Ludlow - Click on the little picture of some scales at the top right of any of your posts and it'll tell you your current reputation scoring.
If you want to add or subtract from anyone elses rep then cick on the same 'scales' icon on any of their posts.

Bumblebee - you can see what post caused you to be given/deducted any rep and any comment the person made by going to your User CP. Unfortunately you can't see who gave or deducted it

Red is negative reputation, green is positive.

And others can't see your points so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Well I wasn't planning a vendetta

, I just don't like anonymous comments. This works the other way as well I don't know who left the positive comments.

So what do the Grey points mean?

BD,

I've often wondered that...I have some saying nice things that are grey..???

Red

BTW Switch ...should I take it personal when you say "Red is a negative reputation"?

Red

**scanker** · 09-05-2006, 11:44

If it works like BB people have "rep power", which is how many points you give to someone. Your rep power increases with things like post count and your own rep and starts as zero. I guess grey ones are from people with 0 rep power.

**British Red** · 09-05-2006, 13:25

Okay Neil...so how do I know how many points I have? I can see recent comments on user CP but thats all I know...don't know why I'm curious but I am!

Red

Edit to say...ahh got it now! That'll be the "points total" then!

Try the instructions set out above....but you have to do it in one of YOUR previous posts

Grey points are from people who haven't got 'power' to give rep. It has something to do with newbies and a minimum amount off posts.

I read a thread that discussed it quite clearly. I'll have a dig.

Here you go:

Or this post made by Martyn: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community...5&postcount=46
Though note this post is made before the Big Crash ... So it could be a bit outdated, but you get the idea on how the system works.

And along the same line and to anticipate on future questions, a post by Stuart about 'the distinguished road': http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community...7&postcount=15

Red

In that context, Red is anything but negative reputation. Maybe you should change your name to British Green

**wingstoo** · 09-05-2006, 19:50

Hi Folks,

Hmmm

Perhaps grey is cos you are colour blind, I think I am red/green colour blind, so thanks for all the green squares folks

LS

**jdlenton** · 11-05-2006, 11:15

If your red green colourblind (like me) you'll not be shure of what colour the square is if they are red green and grey all mine are brown!!!!!

Hey, I just realised that someone has awarded me some points.

Thanks whoever it was....I love you too!

**snock** · 14-05-2006, 16:23

I post on here. My profile.
We used to have the same system on there, but some of the members misused it and thought it a great idea to award negative points to those who just plain disagreed with them.

It wasn't apparent at first who was involved as they never left a calling card (

) but after it was done away with, they all admitted it.

Shame as I had 6 green boxes below my location.

Pete.
