Rep Points catapult

fatlane · 11-30-2005, 04:50 PM

WOW. I did some testing today, and I felt like I was on MythBusters! I repped people way ahead of myself. It was like... I'M A POINTS CATAPULT, launching board members to STARDOM!

Sorry if I didn't get to you today. I'll do more spreading around tomorrow on just general principles. It's all about the love, I tell you...

You gave me THIRTEEN freakin points! Holy Molé, Rico! Feel free to dish out that fat bag of rep points on me anytime!

Oh oh give me some! lol

Obesus · 12-01-2005, 07:16 AM

You are the Santa Claus of Rep points!! Ho Ho Ho! Yo Yo Yo!

I can finally change that lovely little "Senior Member" thingy to something wicked kewl! This is also boosting my community involvement..I am feeling a need to spread my few paltrey rep points around here and there...oh it is a community builder!

The love is awesome, dude!
PS...about that nasty business on the "Create-a-rumor" thread...well...I am on a large dose of a mood stabilizer and sometimes I get a bit fuzzy....oooooh there is another true thing! I can't create a rumor if I TRY! LOL

Ahem.

Guess I don't understand the rep points thing. Can someone 'splain?

Also, what does it mean when there's a green box next to some points that someone has given you vs. a gray box? And how does one know how many points a person has given you (as someone mentioned in another thread that someone gave them x amount of points -- I was wondering how they knew). I have 21 points, whatever that means.

Check your User CP. If you knew what you had before you got repped, you can figure out how much the rep just boosted you.

Merry Christmas, by the way.

fatlane · 12-01-2005, 12:43 PM

OK, gave out all my rep for the day. I'll have more on tap for tomorrow.

Keep posting, keep spreading the love, and let's get more folks with custom titles on the board. They're so much more fun than "Senior Member".

my question is this: how does one go about changing the title? the actual doing of the thing?

Go to User CP
Click on "Edit Profile"
Should be the box at the top of the page, says, "Custom User Title" just above it.

MissToodles · 12-01-2005, 01:06 PM

I'm still a senior member, don't make me have a temper tantrum. Come on people, I'm writing out lesson plans and a case study, so you know this rep points thing is a distraction from all the looming papers and tests!

fatlane · 12-01-2005, 01:11 PM

Are you saying you want more or that you don't want more or that you'd like more, but you can already change your title, so you don't need any more?

Current listening: "Rock and Roll Queen" - Mott the Hoople. I know that goes with my last avatar, but it's still a great song.

MissToodles · 12-01-2005, 01:36 PM

I don't have enough to change the title. Torture me, will ya?

ataraxia · 12-01-2005, 02:42 PM

Wow, finally enough to change my title. I think I owe.

Yeah. I've got the same problem. Not enough reputation points. I guess I just don't rate here. If anyone would be kind enough to give me some rep points so that I could change mine, I'd appreciate it. I'll help anyone who asks me as well.

BigCutieCindy · 12-01-2005, 03:43 PM

Hey, what about me???? I want some too!!!!

LurkingBBW · 12-01-2005, 03:49 PM

Thanks Cindy! Back atcha!

AnnMarie · 12-01-2005, 04:07 PM

I noticed that about a week ago, that my rep given really changed a person's rep rank considerably.

I guess the more you have, the more rep your rep has, etc.

Makes sense!

Totmacher · 12-01-2005, 04:24 PM

Wow, you can give people more points than I have in one shot.

1300 Class · 12-01-2005, 04:25 PM

Maybe its using a multiplier by posts or current rep?

Totmacher · 12-01-2005, 05:15 PM

The latter, old bean.

fatlane · 12-01-2005, 05:27 PM

While my personal rep hasn't gone up hugely, my posts have. Divide my posts by 100, and one sees how that could correlate to a 13-point increase.

Cindy, Toodles, and Lurking: you three are next on my list. Then Totmacher. Laidies first.

And Cindy gets her rep for posting pictures of the week for something like 3 or 4 years straight.

BTW, it's fun catapulting people past me. You guys should try catapulting ME, too! I want the fun! Wheeee! Rep for everyone! In a MLM scheme!

Totmacher · 12-01-2005, 10:10 PM

It seems I was wrong. It's actually the amount of posts you have. Thx for the points everybody

Tina · 12-01-2005, 10:25 PM

Thanks for the points, beautiful peoples!

BBW Betty · 12-02-2005, 05:20 AM

Hi. I still can't figure out how the whole reputation points thing works. I went through the FAQs, and clicked on the link that says they explain it, but it comes up "forbidden."

Can somebody please write it up as a "Rep Points for Dummies" thing so maybe I can figure it out? I'm not really unintelligent, but this one has got me running in circles. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Betty
