Rep Points- what are they? Answer in here with a question for mods!
Rep Points.
Most people here on WI like them, others love them, and some don't. There are also different reasons why people feel how they feel about reps.
The main reason is- 'I think it makes me a popular person on WI if I have them.'
Some don't like them because- 'I thought WI didn't have a popularity thing and this is a popular contest'
Those are some exact quotes that i've heard.
I personally think rep points are for the people who help others to see how what they say is impacting people. It is just to really make people feel good about helping, it also encourages people to do help out.
WI MODS I HAVE A QUESTION;;
My first one is how many points are between each rep box??
And my second is, are you able to change the sayings on the rep boxes? I think mine now says BackFlip15 has a good aura about...
but I remember when I had one rep box and it said I was on a distinguished rode. It really made me feel bad but not that bad, my point is though, it could really hurt people's feelings. So just wondering if that can be changed. Thanks!
Re: Rep Points- what are they? Answer in here with a question for mods!
Great thread, rep.
No one knows how many rep points you need to get to another level, but it's estimated about 100. Only Justin knows, to keep it from coming a "OMG TWO MORE REPS UNTIL MY SECOND BOX", etc.
Also, when I tried a vBulletin demo, you could change the names of the levels. I think the unknown quantity should be changed, it could make someone feel a bit bad.
Re: Rep Points- what are they? Answer in here with a question for mods!
You can't change the saying I don't think. Unless of course you get more rep then it automatically changes at a certain point. People have asked how many rep is in each box before but it is something only Justin knows. I think it is so that they can avoid 50 million threads saying 'I only need one more rep-Help!" and etc.

You can see who left you rep points and see any comments they left you by going to 'User CP Home'. :]

Yes, Reesiepoo, you can find out who has done that You go to your User CP, select User CP Home and scroll down. Only your last 10 will show, though.
The only way to change the saying is to keep getting those rep points from AWESOME informative and helpful posts
Don't forget to hand them out, too either that or go to the person's profle who gave you that point and THANK them for it. It is so important to be polite and helpful, here. I think it is a cornerstone; foundation of Justin and Wendy's Forum. They are nice and warm and they want the people here to be that way, too. One interaction with Moderators and Administrators should let you see that. Even in a reprimand...I have seen and gentle words.
Good questions asked, by the way and I do not view it as a popularity contest. It is a little reward for being kind
