Reputation

I don't spend a lot of time in the "profile" part of the board.

Just curious as to significance of the number in the Reputation field.

I have wondered this same thing. Last time I looked, mine said, "neutral".

Kind of made me feel..........neutral! LOL ! what does it mean? Where does it come from?

It is of dubious value, but I'll try to explain.

At the bottom right of each post, just above the MultiQuote button, are two round buttons and a square with a number in it. Members can click on the circles. The green one with "+" is positive feedback about the post; the red on with "-" is negative feedback.

The number of times these buttons have been pushed is tracked and creates your "reputation." Initially, you have a zero value, which is "neutral."

I guess + is similar to the "like" button on facebook.

This has all kinds of possibilities for a joke!

I'm glad to know this. I have hit the + a few times on helpful posts, but I wasn't sure if it did anything.
