RMOTM must go on until I win

Which is NEVER!

excuse my ignorance, but what are the referrals?

People like us give them to noobs then they have to go to Bartender's office :O

uhhh, I still don't get it. Again, excuse my ignorance.

I'm going to have to give you a referral for all of this hottiebassplayer.

What they actually are is when you get someone else to register on MX

Oh, yeah I remember now. Gratsi.

"Latest Reputation Received"

What does this mean exactly?

[QUOTE=Blashyrkh;14809164]"Latest Reputation Received"

What does this mean exactly?[/QUOTE]

The reputation feature on the forums is a tool where users recognize each other, for good and for ill. There is no reward or cash prize for having a lot (or very little) of rep points, because it's nothing more than a private messaging system between users, for the most part.

However, there are some (maybe two or three) users who take reputation seriously, and rep users for positive contributions (or negative contributions, if the contribution in question sucks).

To rep somebody, click on the x/check box below a user's avatar.

To view your own rep, look in your user control panel, towards the middle of the page.

I hope I'm not annoying you but I don't understand. What would it mean if I were to click on the check/X right now in the reply you just posted?

You'll get a dialog box that says "I approve" or "I disapprove" of the post. If you approve of it or thought it was helpful or funny or whatever criteria you may have, then you click on "I approve" and if you so desire type in a message.

Vice-versa if you thought the post sucked.

The reputation system is designed so that users who have a lot of reputation points can add (or subtract) points from other users to a greater degree than newer users or, for lack of a better term, less-popular users.

EDIT: or what the dude below me said.

It's just a reputation thing. If you like what the person has posted and feel he deserves reputation points, you click the little box and write whatever message you choose.

If you dislike what the person has posted and feel you need to take his reputation points away, you negative rep them. When you click the little /X box you have the option I approve or I dissaprove (approve being positive rep and dissaprove being negative rep).

There's a little number in the top right-hand corner of your reputation box (located in your Ucer CP) that shows how much reputation points you have. I just positive rep'd you, so now you have more points.

EDIT: Yeah, Jom's just faster.

Oh ok I get it now. Thanks for the help!

Edit: Is there a way to check if someone gave negative rep or positive rep?

[QUOTE=Blashyrkh;14809237]Oh ok I get it now. Thanks for the help!

Sure is, just click on the reputation icon on your own post. It'll say something like "The reputation on this post is extremely positive".

I think it would be cool if I was the namesake of the Community thread for a while.

I think it would be cool if Kage was permabanned.

[QUOTE=Apocalypticon;14820564]who do I need to talk to if I want a name change[/QUOTE]

Better to have one in mind first. Think of something that you won't lose interest with in a week. Failing that, pick one that brings the lulz.
