Solid green is 100points for each one as default...light green is 200 I think.

Thats correct yes :).Quote:

P.S. you replied to his Q within the minute :eek:, is there nothing else to do? :D
Sounds like such low values when we have an extra power point given at
every 1000 rep points. But thanks for the info. Where did you find it? FAQ?

I was looking throught he vBulletin Forums, can't remember what i was looking for but I searched for "Reputations" and ended up reading lots of threads about them. Found out quite a bit, mind one article mentioned if a post is deleted then the attached reputations will also be removed, well that one isn't true, the comment does disapear but the points remain. I think it was cos the BETA testers had made that thread and that was the case then and it was changed.
Wasn't it also true that it would still count on the spread even if it was deleted...or have I been dreaming when I read that some where?

If a post gets deleted and the rep comment is lost then you are able to give that person another vote staright away (even though the points remain). Acording to this thread I read the spread is meant to act as if the vote still happened. This doesn't really apply to our forum mind because we don't physically delete posts we just "kinda" make them invisible to regular members.Quote:

Shouldnt each green square be worth more then 100 rep points max? Maybe
one green square per 250 or more?
Over at CodeGugu their rep squares are the same I think. But it doesnt seem
to add up? 2 green squares is 150+. 3 is 200+. 4 is 300+. etc.
Well the 200 value thing is actually hard coded. Not sure what happens when there is no more room though.
The values you gave make sense:
0 - 99 (1 green square)
100 - 199 (2 green squares)
200 - 299 (3 green squares)
300 - 399 (4 green squares)
400 - 499 (5 green squares)
I think thats how it is anyway, unless the code has been chnaged over there to extend it?
Not sure how many you need before they start turning bright green.
I can't see any bright green dots over there....look here is one with 5 dots, and non of them is light green:

But after the 5th, then some guy has a bright one...

This is how I viewed them. The tooltip descriptions say for 2 squares "150+"?
Also, the tooltip for six squares is kind of "square" - "username is a glorious beacon of light." :p :lol:
Please, lets change those descriptions. I would never want to be described in
that way. :lol:
Yeah, that makes sense...read Electromans post again. 150 is between 100 and 200, so you are rezeiving your second green dot, since you all ready have one...;)
Yes, but shouldnt two squares say 200+ reps and not 150+ reps/
No...
One square: 0-99
Two squares: 100-199 ;) (Here is 150+)
Three sqares: 200-299
I agree where your coming from but that way you don't have any squares till you have at least 100. So between -99 & 99 will all appear the same :)Quote:

It should show 100+ for two squares, no?
Yes it should, both 100+ and 150+ as it shows 20+, 30+, 40+ and so on for one square....
But I agree, it looks a bit weird....but that is at least the logic behind it...
Kinda, the tooltips don't just jump in order of the boxes though, like how they are changing at the moment for us even though no one has 100 yet. A tooltip might exist for 450+ too but I don't know, might be that on CodeGuru all the people with more than 400 don't have more than 450.Quote:

Electro, can we change the tooltip descriptions for certain levels so there not
so "cutesy" for lack of a better word. ;)
Ex. "username is a glorious beacon of light." :lol:
I don't think he can do that. We will have to let Brad or Heidi or something do that. But I have to agree. It is a bit silly...:)

The value(s) that determine when an additional square (graphic) is displayed is determined within the code and not the forum settings. I've never gone out to try to find out what the value(s) are for that.
The text is customizable for the tool tips. This is based on reaching different categorizes. For the most part, the textual descriptions are what were in the software (although I dumped a couple that were even worse).
In order to provide better feedback, I added the "(###+)" text at the end of a number of descriptions and then duplicated the text so as to allow for better feedback on how a person is doing. As people get into higher point brackets, the spread for a new items gets wider. If you have a rep over 100, you are probably helping more than hurting anyway.
Hopefully this makes sense.
And no, I won't display what upcoming tags are. I'll leave that as a surprise ;)
Brad!
Wouldn't they be the same or similar to CodeGuru's settings ;)Quote:
