Reputation

[Peoplesoft bloke]

I was just taking an idle look at my profile and noticed I had a load of reputation! Can someone point me to an explantion of this feature please?

Whilst I'm at it - how does one make that emoticon of a bloke having a Jodrell appear?

Well someone clicks the star to the bottom left of a post:

Then they Rep you Up or Down...

Depending on their Rep, Post count, day of the week and other obscure algorithms you get + or - points....

Your overall total dictates your Rep "Title".

Hows that?

PS is just like all the rest

MF will probably be along soon with some detail about the algorithms and what value the Titles require.

Fantastic - so is my rep title the thing that says I'm mostly harmless? or something else?

The emoticon is in the list of available ones, in the row above the one and below the one.

Well at the moment you make sense... but I am slower than a 486

Thanks - I haven't seen that list since the forum upgrade (possibly before) it's almost certainly my own fault - giving me a computer is like giving a monkey a typewriter. I have lifted the the relevant text from the quoted posts though.

I don't think you can rep me again for a while - and after rep-ping others as well
