Points and Reputation

As members, you can vote, positively or negatively for a post. In order to cast your vote, look for the +/- indicator on the right-hand side of the post.

In most cases, a + vote will get the poster +1 reputation and a - vote will take away a point from the poster's reputation. There are two exceptions.

Admin Announcements is set to +/- 0. I don't think we need to like or dislike rules and general announcements.

Controversy Corner is set to +3/-2. The purpose of this is to add incentive to keep the conflict in this category friendly.

You also earn points for every post you make and topic you create. You get extra points for posting in the Suggestions category.

Rack up points and spend them on shit I made up off the top of my head one day while I was drunk THE BEST CRAP IN THE UNIVERSE!!

Yes. They are just like thumbs. If it helps, we can even call them "thumbs".

Yes, but what would you like to call the Reputation points, dear?

doesn't matter , cos' reputation has never been my good point

I think this is the first time quite a few of us has ever been able to say we've had a good reputation

That's why I didn't want to change it.

I don't have a reputation at all.
