This thread was the original post and became the discussion thread for the reputations FAQ. It is now preserved for the image attachments.
The finished Reputations and Rating posts FAQ can be found here.
If you have any suggestions for additions or modifications to the FAQ please PM me. Thanks.
You know you're really bored when you start reading the forum test area
you know you're really bored when you write something as long as that!
In case your wondering it was for my sig :)
Penagate, I hope you wont mind if I'll borrow your post#1 in my sig also. :)
Sure. :)
I also wrote one on using vB codes:

and resolving threads:
http://www.vbforums.com/showpost.php?p=2086551
Just thought some of it was missing from the FAQ ;)
You are offering me all of that? Hmmmnnnn... Can I just borrow your signature then. :D
:D
If you think of anything more or that needs to be changed...
Perhaps you should tackle about giving negative reputations also. :)
Hmm :)
What else should I add. Seeing as the link is to my post most people won't see the rest of the thread, so if there is anything you feel I should add to those two sentences (based on recent experience maybe? ;)) then I will edit it.Quote:

Something like that?
I added a couple of sentences to "How do I give reputation" and also a section "I got a negative rep, why" further down.
:)
Nice one there Penagate. :)
Just a little question, I think there is something wrong in your above sentence. :)Quote:

I'm not actually sure of how to define a situation where you would give a negative rep. I have only done it twice and the last one was because a lot of people (including me) spent time helping the poster and then he basically said we were all wrong and not to waste his time, which rather angered me. And I have only received one negative one which was one of the first reps I received and I have no idea who gave it to me or why.
Hmmnnn... I think I also posted in that thread you are talking about...Quote:

But I left a detailed note in the comment field and also my name. That reminds me, do you think I should add a sentence or two about retaliatory negative reps?
Very nice FAQ penegate. :thumb: ;)
Could you make the sub-subjects in black bold so they stand out more?
Also, the Power calculation is missing the 1 point every member gets by default.
Power explained a little more and maybe you could add an example calculation so they can understand more?
Mine:
1 - Default.
4 - four complete years on the forums.
3 - 3 multiples of 4,000 posts.
0 - less then 1,000 rep points.
My Power = 8 currently, but coming up on 9 with only 800 more posts to get another multiple of 4,000 posts. :D
Oh, ya. Your also missing the "Disabled" rep Gem indicator. ;)

This thread is where I posted the information on the Gem levels in case you need anything else.
If you want I can make a cleaner picture with a red arrow and stuff?
Ps, I added this thread as a link in my sig. :thumb:
I updated my post #19 to show the Gem levels a little more nicely ;)
The image would be good thanks :)
I'm writing in a list of the different levels at the moment. I keep getting the "You have included too many images" error :mad:
Yes, thats why I had to make the 5 Gems + images using PhotoShop because you can only have something
like 20 IMG tages in a post. I can attach more images for 2 Gems - 4 Gems to help reduce the # of IMG tags?
Don't worry, I did the 2 and 3 and 4 is two 2's (Figure that out :confused:)... Also I took out some smileys.
Also we are missing one rep level. Go look at the codeguru member list
http://www.codeguru.com/forum/member...ion&pp=30<r=
cilu has 5 green + 5 light green rep gems.
Plus I read somewhere there was a level "User has a reputation beyond repute"...
Thanks, that will reduce # of tags by one :)
Added the 10 Gem level. ;)
Do you reckon it is 1500 reps? That seems to be the number on other vB forums.
Possibly but we can just update the thread when cilu hit it and updates the FF thread with the actual number?
I updated my post with all the Gem levels and post counts and have no issues with img tags. You should be well under it according to my count.
Updated. I had to remove the :) smiley at the end of the post to fit in 20 images. maybe I shouldn't have had 3 of the single gem...
Just use each of the images I made for the gems so you dont have to use multiple IMG tags to replicate it. ;)
I also updated post #19 with the next level - 1100 - 1299 because cilu updated the CG thread stating it was 1300 posts.
I noticed that you took out the disabled Gem and placed it in the listing. Wouldnt it be best to keep it back where it was? This way you dont have to show the red gem in the gem count for symmentry
Oh yeah I saw that too but forgot. Thanks :)Quote:

What if it just showed the different gem levels instead of the tooltip levels? Then you could wipe out the first 2?
Also, cilu told me that their is different tooltip levels between 500-749 I believe, where the tooltip changes but not the gem count.
For symmetry I moved it to the top of the list :)Quote:

Crap, that makes life difficult. maybe I will make it just point count levels.Quote:

Its looking good :thumb:
I like the way you moved the postcounts into parenthesis after the gems. ;)
I see what you meant about the gems in the CP now. ;)
Not sure what else there may be missing but I think we covered it all?
I think that's about it. If we or anyone else think of anything then it can be added at any time (Also fixing typos... :p)
BTW I think Yoda needs some bling-bling :D
:lol: :) Maybe one of those Mercades Benz hood ornaments for my gold rope chain necklace. :p
Well I think you also need a 1st place trophy for this too. ;)
How about a Co-Author position or something? :D
I was feeling generous. so I added a contributions section at the bottom ;)
:lol: Let me break out my reading glasses. ;)
Thanks, for the props :thumb:
Ps, Now I wont have ta cap ya. :) Jk.
Did you see I did mine in green in my sig.?
Green = positive Gems or $$$
Too bad this isnt in a regular forum or it could be Rep'able.
Hmm, I do post in the rep'able forums also... ;)Quote:

Hmm, This sounds like a job for Gangsta Yoda™ :D (I think I need my own smilie).
I tried but couldn't think of a more appropriate place to put it.... so here I stuck it...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :thumb: ROTFL.....
Thanks, I like the first one best. It could use some gangsta-tude. ;)
Still needs a bit of work.. the necklace came out retarded... but eh!
:yoda: :p
How about jsut the shades and maybe a hard look on his face like he wants to cap somebody? :D
yeah Yoda lose the cheesy grin.
Getting better but why does he have gray hair. :( Senior Citizen Gangsta Yoda? :D
Be back tomorrow. Gangsta gotta sleep. :)
I got this information from Martin on EVERY tooltip level and description. :)
We probably would want to add this after the Gem levels as another section. ;)

Thanks. I added the different tags and the levels at which they are attained. Left out the ones where only the number changes, but I linked to your post (#50) so that the full list is accessible :)
Gangsta Yoda is looking good :D The grey hair on mine was meant to be a cap, but anyway. Your shades look more hardcore than mine :p
Cool! :thumb:'s This Rep FAQ is really coming out very well :thumb:
I modified the original yoda and raised his ears and redrew his grin. The shades were a bit harder to draw (being the graphic artist that I am ;)),
I like the way it came out. Even placed it in my signature. :D
