Rep is confusing me but I will figure it out.

Carry on.

Hopefully not dude. You do have a staple in there for Christ's sake. ;) :D

I know, which is why they feel off, I think. I might go to hospital later.

Dude. Check your User CP at the top left hand corner of the page. It's your (hidden) karma score kinda thing. ^_^ If you hover the mouse cursor over the green block under post counts you can get a general idea of how far along other folks are.

It is a way also, to comment of people posts, without posting a LOL or thats cool, or something.

Oh right it's an, "I respect what you said there/ that post made me laugh" function?

Obviously, when I now go and check, my rep count will have an infinity sign next to it...

*goes and checks*

Fuck me! I was right. I have infinity(/9) rep points. :coolgleam:


I suppose I should give some back really. They kind of seem mostly like PMs. Or private responses. And from the looks of it, they are all specifically related to one relevent post. How can I respond directly then, if the rep I got was an open statement, pretty much awaiting reply? I take it that I should open the post which got repped, then rep the following reply from the person who repped me.
Do I make sense? :dizzy:

Reps are the new Exalt/Smite Karma thing. It's what we have here, up at the little scale alone each and every post. You can rep someone either positive or negative.

And the fun thing is, when you look at your reps on your User CP, it shows you exactly which post got you the rep! I like that!

I rep quite a bit, I'm a whore for the rep-giving. Most folks seem to be more particular about reps (which is probably more in the spirit of the rep function). Just watch out for Cam, he's like the Anti-Rep Faerie in Combat Boots. ^_^

It's hard to know when you've been repped tho at times.. I mean, i have to consciously go and check it to see if it happened and then I'm blown away by the vast amount that has accumulated since the last time...

You don't have to rep someone that reps you. You could check the posts you were repped for and rep the repper's first rep-worthy response afterward though.

Man, that sounds complicated. >.<

How often do you rep, you rep fiend? ^_^

Any chance of having a setting like PMs, where you get a message window telling you you've been repped?

I hadn't thought of that... I could ask Adam about that, Stocky. ^_^

...and I just got a definite "I don't know". ^_^



I actually check my rep points quite a bit. A message board I belong to actually has a wildly popular thread entitled 'Obsessive Rep Point Checkers Club'. ^_^
