    Resolved [RESOLVED] Another REP question

    hi all,

    As per Reputation FAQs page, the 6th gem means that the person has atleast 500 reputation to his name. then why still it shows that "username is a glorious beacon of light (400+)" instead of 500+?

    thnx

    Re: Another REP question

    Here are the tooltip Gem comments and at what point they get displayed:

    -999999 = [User] is infamous around these parts
    -050 = [User] can only hope to improve
    -010 = [User] has a little shameless behaviour in the past
    0000 = [User] is an unknown quantity at this point (<10)
    0010 = [User] is on a distinguished road (10+)
    0020 = [User] is on a distinguished road (20+)
    0030 = [User] is on a distinguished road (30+)
    0040 = [User] is on a distinguished road (40+)
    0050 = [User] will become famous soon enough (50+)
    0060 = [User] will become famous soon enough (65+)
    0080 = [User] will become famous soon enough (80+)
    0100 = [User] has a spectacular aura about (100+)
    0125 = [User] has a spectacular aura about (125+)
    0150 = [User] has a spectacular aura about (150+)
    0200 = [User] is a jewel in the rough (200+)
    0300 = [User] is a jewel in the rough (300+)
    0400 = [User] is a glorious beacon of light (400+)
    0750 = [User] is a splendid one to behold (750+)
    1000 = [User] is a name known to all (1000+)
    1500 = [User] has much to be proud of (1500+)
    2000 = [User] has a brilliant future (2000+)
    3000 = [User] has a reputation beyond repute (3000+)

    From 400 points to 749 points, the message remains unchanged.

    The thread on Reps and Ratings in my siugnature explains all there is to know about Reps. The tooltip text does not change until you have more then 750+ posts after reaching 400.

    Where do you think I got the info for my post?

    Actually, I was going to supply that link but there is a ton of information there and Harsh was just asking about the tooltip message, so I just extrapolated enough to respond to his question.

    No, you need to bombard the member with overwhelming amounts of information.
