New page

The source of much kerfuffle on the Forums, the Rep system will now be layed bare for everyone to see and understand. Hopefully.

== The Basics ==
What is the rep system you ask? It is a form of feedback which allows users to give rep or karma to another user based on what one thinks of a user.

There are two types of rep (or Karma as it is sometimes called), positive, and negative.

Positive reputation is given when a user approves of an item that another member has posted. The amount of reputation given is equal to the users ''Rep Power''

Negative reputation is given when a user disapproves of a post, be it for the users point of view, their posting manner, or just plain bitchiness. The amount of reputation removed is equal to ''half'' the givers rep power.

== Points and Power ==
This is the most often source of confusion.

Rep points are how many points you have recieved. At the time of writing, the user [[DavetheFo]] had 634 points in total.

Rep power is how many points you can give or take away, and is based upon a number of factors, explained below. Again, at the time of writing, DavetheFo had a rep power of 11.
