I can no longer participate in any four-play
My rep power has been decreased
Does anyone know why?
Have I offended you, Franck...?

you know I swore I was at rep power 6 for a week or so but I just figured I'd mis read it.. now I'm not so sure.
Perhaps the upper limits have been set to something different. I know rep power is calculated from many variables, time on forum (from when you joined) , number of posts and your own reputation.. among others. I'm not privy to the exact formulae
Mine is still 6
but there is always the possibility I'm next
My rep power has gone from 6 to 5 since the last upgrade, maybe the calculation has changed...
It's like the Diet Coke formula, or the Google search algorithm - kept hidden away in a safe sometimes, guarded by a rabid wolf and laser beams I reckon.
Oh, OK, then - it used to be
- +1 point for posting more than 10 posts
- +1 point for every year you're a member
- +1 point for every 2,000 posts
- +1 point for every 250 rep points
But capped at 6, of course (with 2 exceptions... wonderful people that they are :grovel: )
It was messed around a bit a few weeks ago I think when there was an upgrade - someone had 11 power for a brief time didn't they?
I dunno if the system's changed now, however. There may be a new Secret Formula...
Hmm. According to the formula DJ quoted I should have
Which would make 5, but my rep power is 4.
- +1 point for posting more than 10 posts +1
- +1 point for every year you're a member 3 years in March 2006 so +3
- +1 point for every 2,000 posts
- +1 point for every 250 rep points More than 250, less than 500 so +1
Looks that way..
Love dance, will travel
I think the change has been in the "1 per year" area myself... Could be wrong...

ok.. that would make me 6 , but I'm still 5. I definately WAS 6 rep when I looked back at the "come celebrate" thread. just after I got 500 rep points My Rep power increased to 6 (briefly) and I commented on this at the time on that thread . However it then decreased again recently.
So something is wrong with the formula above, 5 or 6 it makes no difference really, my Rep score is still the same and it only affects the amount of rep other people get from me (doesn't it?)
Of course, it doesn't help when an idiot like me intends to plus rep someone and then hit's the wrong button and gives them neg rep! Sorry about that - trying to make amends.........
