    Removed negative reputation

    People were getting dinged for no apparent reason. Changed the settings so that members can only apply positive reputation. Moderators and Admins still have the ability to apply negative reputation.

    Thanks, Craig--the negative reputations always seemed to be oddly random!

    I'm still rather lost about the reputation thing as a whole.

    A second not, and I probably missed this, but I'm gonna ask anyway, is the chat room kapoot or just off the options menu?

    Better yet, is there a full detailed description as to what/how/where, etc reputations are somewhere?

    A new registrant to the forum has the starting option to rate a member from +1 or -1 points. For every 180 days you've been registered, you gain +1 reputation-altering points. For every 500 posts you gain +1 reputation-altering points. For every 100 points of reputation you have achieved, you get +1 reputation-altering points.

    You must have at least 50 posts to rate. You must have a minimum reputation of 10. You may only rate 20 posts within a 24-hour limit. You cannot rate the same person twice until you rate at least 15 others.

    To view your reputation, click on the "User CP" link in the upper left corner of any page. This page should list any reputation one has recieved. Red dots indicate a negative reputation change, green dots indicate a positive reputation change, and grey dots indicate reputation has not changed, but someone attempted to change your reputation but did not have the ability to do so as defined above.

    Dude, Nice compromise. You don't mind be called a dude, right? That'd blow. Dude, there goes a couple rep points. I should probably, like, not send this now. Oooh! Look at the button! Let's click it!
    I'm not suffering from insanity. I'm enjoying every minute of it.
