What is Reputation?
Reputation is a way of rating users depending on the quality of their posts. If the administrators have enabled reputation, then the like icon will be visible in posts.

You can build your reputation on the site by posting informative and constructive content. This in turn will encourage people to follow your posts, press the like button on different posts and they could even subscribe to your content.

How do I give reputation?
To give reputation, click on the like icon in the relevant post. This will signify you like the content and will add to the user's reputation. If you click on the like icon again, you will remove that reputation from the user.

How do I know what reputation I have received?
You will be notified when someone likes one of your posts. In addition to this, your general reputation will appear within the user information of your posts. These show as small graphics or pips under your Avatar. As your reputation inceases, the number of pips or graphics will increase.

How much reputation is given? What is reputation power?
If the administrator has enabled this, the amount of reputation that each user will give (or take away if negative) is shown in the user's posts as 'Reputation Power'. The value of the reputation power is determined by the administrator and may increase over time depending on the settings they have applied.

What if I don't want anyone to see my reputation?
You can disable the display of your reputation by going to your Account Settings and selecting the checkbox for Reputation Level.

Now our last reputation balance was done quite some time ago
https://discoverxs.com/forum/main-ca...now-in-visible

As of today the Reputation Power visible for everyone.

Rep Power is the reputation you give by clicking the LIKE button on each post.



Users gain 1 point of Rep Power for:

• Every 100 of days of their registration
• Every 50 posts
• Every 50 points of reputation received

This was always on
but now you can check yours and others rep power.

Please tell us what you think





UPDATE 21.12.2013:


Hey hey

here are the changes so far:

Reputation
1. All Members start with a Default Reputation of 1
2. Each will give a Reputation +1 and the Current user Rep Power.
3. All admins/mods and PheromoneXS employees start from 0 rep power (or maybe we should punish them with a -1 )


Rep Power
Users gain 1 point of Rep Power for:

• Every 180 of days of their registration
• Every 50 posts
• Every 1000 points of reputation received (this is specially to avoid users with rep power over a 100 easily)

Reputation Ranks (shown when you mouse hover on the reputation bar)

User has a little shameless behaviour in the past	-10
User is an unknown quantity at this point	0
User is on a distinguished road	10
User will become famous soon enough	30

Please leave a feedback and comment how we can further fine tune the Reputation for our community.
Have in mind that we are running the newest vBulletin 5

Ok time for

soooo thanks for bringing this question up once again.


As i see years from that post we need to re-balance the reputation bar + reputation power

as us admins(for example) now have so much REP power that giving a few likes to a new user will make him trusted(high reputation bar)


The idea of the reputation bar is to have an overview about the users posts VS likes ration.

Is he posting good stuff(liked = higher rep) or just normal posts.


I will update yo on this really soon.

Preparing a new reputations system. As soon as i run it with Steve and the rest of team i will notify you about the upcoming changes

[elvin.tan77]

Ooooo thanks

[idle]

Okay in glad I found this thread. I was just about to make one asking a similar question. How is it that I only have 1 and a half heart's and I have absolutely no bars and galacticfish has 4 bars after only 13 posts. Smh, I have no bars

And why is my score so low. I just noticed that too. Everyone else has thousands of points and I have a measly 450

What if I don't want anyone to see my reputation?
