    I like to get the nice comments that come with rep, but I've just realised that the earliest ones have vanished off my list!

    Miffed now....

    1 rep power point for every 1,250 reputation total

    1 rep power point for every 2 years on the forum
    I was curious and wanted to check if this was still the case, I also wanted to check out the formula behind the green "dots" to the left

    according to my goggling it's as follows

    One green dot () is given for every started 100 reputation points.
    From 500 points on, one bright green dot () is given for every started 200 reputation points.
    One red dot () is given for every started 100 negative reputation points.
    From 500 negative points on, one bright red dot () is given for every started 200 negative reputation points
    If a user has 0 reputation points, a gray dot () is displayed.
    If a user has chosen to turn off reputation in his UserCP, a black dot () is displayed.
    don't know if all this applies to this forum though!

    looks like it -

    If the magic formula was:
    1 rep power point for posting more than 10 posts
    1 rep power point for every 4,000 posts
    1 rep power point for every 1,250 reputation total
    1 rep power point for every 2 years on the forum

    ..I would have

    1 for more than 10 posts
    1 for 4,000 posts
    1 for 1,250 reputation
    2 for 2 full years on forum

    = 5

    which is what i actually have, so it may be right

    Re: Rep Power?

    I wonder if the green dot / red dot thing is correct. It seems to be ok with my green dots, but I've never seen anyone with any red dots.

    What would be good if you could see totals of both. Someone with +rep would obviously have more green than red but someone with 10 Green dots and no Red dots would PERHAPS be a better poster than someone with 10 green dots and 5 dots.

    You're assuming PERHAPS that anyone gives a toss

    Look here – five people with negative rep and a wee red spot...
