What is rep power.

What is reputation?
Reputation is a way of rating users depending on the quality of their posts. If the administrators have enabled reputation, then the reputation icon will be visible in posts.
Reputation may be positive , negative or neutral . Negative reputation may only be given if the administrator has enabled this. Neutral reputation is only given when the person giving reputation does not meet the criteria set by the administrator to affect someone else's reputation.
How do I give reputation?
To give reputation, click on the reputation icon in the relevant post. This will reveal a form to complete with the reputation type and the reason for giving the reputation. If negative reputation is disabled then it will not be displayed in this form. You may not give reputation for the same post twice.
How do I know what reputation I have received?
You can view the reputation that you have received in your User CP (User Control Panel) where it is displayed at the bottom of the User CP page. Here you will see the latest reputation that you have received and whether this is positive, negative or neutral. Your total reputation will be shown as series of reputation indicators in your posts and profile. The more positive your reputation, the more positive icons will be shown. The more negative your reputation the more negative icons will be shown.
How much reputation is given? What is reputation power?
If the administrator has enabled this, the amount of reputation that each user will give (or take away if negative) is shown in the user's posts as 'Reputation Power'. The value of the reputation power is determined by the administrator and may increase over time depending on the settings they have applied.
What if I don't want anyone to see my reputation?
You can disable the display of your reputation by going to your User CP and selecting Edit Options. On this page you will find a check box labelled 'Show Your Reputation Level'. Un-checking this box will remove the display of your reputation and replace it with the Reputation Disabled icon. You can still give and receive reputation while your reputation display is disabled.

Thanks screwtape. I understand now.

It depends on the reason that he is wanted in the U.K. If it is a valid charge, and the warrant has been properly served then he would be returned to face charges.

Wha... what??!?

That is a classic example of a virus on this guys PC. Its sending random lines of text from another document into a recent history file. My mrs had the same thing with her iPhone sending random shit from her Hotmail account which was just setup on the phone.

You can only give out so much rep I guess...I can't give out any more today.

Thanks jonezzy999 for your thread on what's REP POWER, what it means and who dishes it out and how. I am a junior member who recently scooped a "1" and has been puzzled as to its meaning. Special thanks goes to both the ADMINISTRATOR and SCREW TAPE for attempting to answer the quiz. SCREWTAPE'S explanation was particularly very satisfactory and satisfied my curiosity, for this I give you an A+. However, a " PROMOTION BOARD" put in place to vet the quality of the posts and award the "MARKS" themselves would be a "better deal"?

it's not a virus, he's a spammer that posts to forums with links in his signature. I am modifying the code for site to not allow signatures for new users with few posts.

Thank you...I've been hitting the Report Post a lot lately.

What are rep points? Someone on this forum that gives you a high five for the help.
What are rep points worth? Diddley squat, just shows what responce to a post is worth listening to.
What are negative points? Someone who is just being a D$*k head or a spammer.
What are negative points worth? Again diddley squat, but would you take the advice of someone with negative points?
Do rep points make you any money or privledges to this site? Yeah right!

Rep points show respect and a small thanks for the help to a solution that worked.

Just my perspective on the subject.

I've given my share of negative points since I've joined this forum, but that just proves my status description. Of course, for every negative rep point I've given, there are a lot positive ones I've spread for the help I've been given.

As for the rest of your post, I agree wholeheartedly.
