LOL that made me laugh :-\

Well its just some geeky business that admins can give you information about. I think its when someone repps you about 10 or some number, then it increases the number. Well i hope someone can clarify your geeky query for you, so that you may increase in happiness. maybe it shows how goo you are :-\, i thinks.

.. peace ..
 
I use rep power to click on the right uper corner, then if someone is being a troll I disaprove, if it was helpful I aprove, and then they get or lose rep. I'm pretty sure thats it.

When u use rep power you lose it, that's why you end up with 1. xD I wonder how much I got, I think I used it all on lisliking na's posts.
 
oh ****, I got 1 rep power............. that's fail.
 
Asalaamu Alaikum,

Im not sure but I think your rep power increases if you give others rep.
 
No perseverance? you lose it, right?

^nope the person you rep increases in rep power, you dont lose anything, it increases your rep power if they rep you back, or whenever someone reps, unless someone gives you a negative rep, you will know if the rep square is red:-\
 
lol, ok.

What if you give negative rep?

And whats the diffrence between reputation and rep p.?
 
I think rep power just depends on how long you've been a member.

edit: or maybe not.

Nah iv been on forums just like these like u give more rep ur rep power goes up then when u give rep u give rep that equals ur rep power

rep - rep given 2 u

rep power - rep u can giv in 1 go, goes up the more rep u give
 
no, I just gave away a lot of rep, and my rep power havent changed.
 
Rep Power is the amount of rep points a person gets when you rep them. If you give them a neg rep 1/2 of your rep power is deducted from the person you neg rep.

Rep power increases based on the number of months you been a member, the amount of rep points you have and the number of posts you have made.

I forgot the exact formula but it is something like 1 rep power for each month you been here, one point for every 1000 reps you have been given and 1 point for every 1000 posts you have made.

OOOPs, I got something wrong. Based on that my rep power would be 214

Must be 1 point for every 5000 rep points you get

So the way to increase rep power is to stay active on this forum, give credit where credit is due and say something when there is something useful to be said, right? Sounds like a reasonable formula. btw is that a customized formula or is it available through the forum software?
 
If I'm not mistaken, the formula is 1 rep power = 2 months, or 2,000 reputations or 1,000 posts.

It's customized. I think the admins have also tweaked the old formula where they gave more weight to the number of posts.

There was already some thread explaining all this but I could not locate it
 
Am I the only one who still doesn't understand? :exhausted

Assalaamu Alaaykum

Okay insha'Allaah i will try simplify it

When you rep someone, the person you rep their rep power increases, same happens when someone repps you.

If you give them a negative rep which is by clicking the red rectangle, the person you neg rep, their rep power ultimately decreases.

I think thats all, but do not hesitate to ask if you feel you want to know more insha'Allaah

.. peace ..
