Members Rankings

[clacker]

So how do these rankings work?? I have noticed that as you put your cursor over peoples forum rankings it has comments like "can only improve" is it judged by a moderator?? If so why hasn't mine been done??

It depends on the level of rep

People just need to learn to use the rep system better.

i have 800 odd posts and only like 9 or 10 have been repped on :P maybe it's just 'coz im useless.

It's not a ranking system but rep system. You make a post or thread that people like or find useful they add to your rep and leave a comment only you can see. On the flip side if they find something you post to rub them the wrong way you may get a negitive rep. It's all BS if ya ask me. Don't sweat it.

The rep system is flawed in this forum. You're often awarded rep for doing cool things or taking an extreme side alongside another member in a discussion. People rarely use it exclusively for tech knowledge. In a way, it's like a popularity contest. As said above, don't worry about it. Once you're here long enough you know which members really know their stuff and which don't.

Ahh I see how it works now I have helped loads of people but no one gives me rep.

How do you give people REP??

It's the little star/sheriff badge thingy icon to the left of the 'Report Post' button.

you can approve or disapprove, so add or deduct rep.

I think they need to have different sayings of ranks instead on senior member or guru. make it sound more exciting..
