curious--reputation rating

[Mad Baron]

Can anyone give me the structure and ratings associated with Reputation, like on the email author's block, with the + and the - signs, and different colors of squares in between? Thanks...:cool:

Leto sums it up well.

It's a nice feature if used properly, but too much focus on it tends to lead to abuse.

I personally only use it give positve rep and leave a comment for contributions to the board.

If I have a negative comment it will most likely be sent off in a PM with a warning ;)

personally I like the feature. I use it sparringly, but I do use it when a post is either extremely deserving or lacking. And I think it is nice when somebody comments on a post.

I don't think you can make more than three reputation 'scores' a day, and i've seen some with as many as two red squares but that doesn't mean they are a trouble maker just that more than likely someone is abusing the scoring system. I haven't bothered using it in ages, shame when you think of all the hard work that probably went into implementing it.

You can only give one rating for any one post, precisely to stop that sort of abuse.
