What is reputation?
- On this forum you may see the little green blocks, the more of these the user has the better 'reputation' they have. People can give other people reputation in two forms, bad rep and good rep.
How much reputation do I start with?
- You start with 10 rep points, these can go up quickly if people love ya and can go down if people hate you.

0 - 99 remains in ----------- 1 blob
On completion of 100 Points - 2 blob

How do I see another user's reputation?
- In the side panel that contains a user's information in their post (join date, location etc.) there should be a green colored square (or squares). If you hover your mouse pointer over the square(s), this will give you their current rating. They show the value of the member. This value increases or decreases when other members add reputations to a user.
What is my "rep power"?
- Your "rep power" is the ability to have an effect other users' reputation. Users rep power is calculated based on number of posts, time on the forum, and reputation points that you have accumulated from other users. Your rep power will increase based on the following,
* + 1 power for every 150 days on the forum
* + 1 power for every 500 posts you make
* + 1 power for every 750 rep points you accumulate from other users
What is “You must spread reputation around before giving it to “XXX” again”?
You cannot rep a person again before repping atleast 5 others. So in short you need to spread reps in order to rep the user again.
How many rep points do I need to go into the red?
- You can go into the red if you go under 0 rep points, if you do this people might see you as a bad person and might not
trust you however if you have proven yourself in the forum you might find people don't take any notice
If I start a topic asking why I got a rep will someone know?
- No no and no. Don't do it, it is stupid and you will either get flammed or blanked. I am sorry but you would have to just deal with it. Once again, don't make a topic about it!
I did not do anything to get this Red, can I get it removed?
- Simple no. The person gave you a red rep as they think you did something wrong, even if you don't think you did. Once again a single red rep won't make you look bad, if your a good forumer most of the other reps you get would be green.
Ok I understand Green & Red but.. GRAY?
- Gray is simple, think green as good, red as bad and gray as something that don't effect you. You get gray for one reasons, A) someone who has not got enough posts reps you. Gray does not effect your rep images and should be taken as a pinch of salt
