What should we do about rep PART TWO !

[Redrobes]

That all sounds good to me. Ironically, it gives me more rep power than I had, but I have been here for almost 12 years now.

Then its working ! The new normal is 50,000 rep instead of 500. And being here 12 years ought to count for something.

That gives me 107 rounded. Which I think is a little less than before but I'm not sure.
But I guess it is normal since all of my stats are fairly high.

Well its capped at +100 so your maxed out.

I like Vogon poetry now. Big fan of his/her work.

Just be careful that you don't gnaw off your own limbs and keep your intestines from coming up and choking yourself !

I was just looking at the FAQ page for the guild and what it says about rep and I do not think it has been updated yet. Although it is a rather small thing that has no need to be rushed I thought I might as well let you know!

Hi Arimel, the rep system and allocation of rep power has been updated but I have probably not looked at the FAQ page and checked what it is saying about rep - so thanks for pointing that out and ill head over there in a mo and make sure that it is updated to reflect the current status.

I forget the exact formulae now but people are staring on 10pts (if they register after the change in April) and rep power is more evenly balanced based on posts, time on the guild and existing rep score. But the main thing is that rep power is limited to +100 now and the score maxes out at about 55,000 so you will get a full set of pips and each pip now has a new title / explanation.

Your current rep power is +43 and your not afraid of dementors. But ill rep you in a second and since your at 7979, I think being > 8000, you will gain a pip and a new rep title for it.

Not being afraid of dementors is useful but thank you! I just had to look up what the 'beast of Caerbannog' was actually. Who knew rabbits could be so scary?

Vicious they are. Also known as the Vorpal Bunny !

So, I just thought of something to add to this discussion: is it possible - or could it be made possible - to see the statistics of what rep has been received within a profile? I would be really curious to see which of my maps/posts have been given the most rep, and which I have given the most to. At the moment I can only see the most recent 15...

The forum and profile is only able to show what this particular version of vBulletin is currently allowing or implemented. So a set of statistics is unworkable as the only indication on which items have been given rep comes from the text line from the rep giver. Now I understand that the rep was generated from a post which presumably is known but I dont think that there is any way to access them in order to generate stats. So theoretically possible but unimplemented.

All I can say is for you to look down the list of rep feedback which is given on your profile and manually scan them to see which posts you got the rep from. I am not sure if that list shows how much each rep amount was added, only a list of the feedback text lines from the members.

Edit - just checked and its actually under your 'settings' instead of your profile. And it doesn't show the amounts given but does show the thread from which is came from. So yes possible, but sadly not implemented from vBulletin.
