The idea of the Rep+ system is to give you all a chance to show your appreciation for a helpful or nice posting on the Forum (and ofCourse you can also show that you dont appreciate a post). By clicking on the little button with an X on you open a new window where you can add or take away Rep+ points to/from the poster, you can also leave a short comment. But as usual there are some rules around this 1. All users start with a 10 reputation points. 2. Any user with at least 25 posts and with at least 10 reputation points are allowed to add reputation. 3. Every user can add reputation to 10 different users every 24 h. 4. You must give reputation to 5 different users before you can hit the same person again. In addition to the reputation points, every user have a reputation altering power points, reputation altering power is the amount of reputationpoints that every user will add or remove every time an user give reputation to an user. (Administrators give or take 50 points) For every month (30 days) as a Forum member you gain 1p reputation altering power For every 50 post made on the forum gain 1p reputation altering power For every 100 Reputation point you get, you gain 1p reputation altering power This is what appear when you click in the reputation button of an user: -------------------------------------- What do you think of user x post? I approve I disapprove Your comments on this post: -------------------------------------- If you approve you are adding reputation points to this users, the amounts of the reputation points added is your altering power points that you have. If you disaapprove you are removing or substracting reputation points to this users, the amounts of the reputation points substracted is your altering power points that you have. How is calculated your reputation altering power points? Easy, the altering power points is calculated based on Number of days ago the user has been registered at nokiafree, Number of post of the user and reputation poinsts. You must use this single formula: altering power points = (days / 90) + (post / 30) + (reputation / 10) Where days: Number of days ago the user has been registered at nokiafree. posts: Number of post of the user. reputation: reputation poinsts. This is the table of possible reputations depending of the reputation points of the user: (example) is infamous around these parts -999999 This users has received 3rd. warning to be banned -300 This users has received second warning to be banned -200 This users has received 1st. warning to be banned -100 can only hope to improve -50 has a little shameless behaviour in the past -10 is an unknown quantity at this poINT 0 is on a distinguished road 10 will become famous soon enough 50 has a spectacular aura about 150 is a jewel in the rough 250 is just really nice 350 is a glorious beacon of light 450 is a name known to all 550 is a splendid one to behold 650 has much to be proud of 1000 has a brilliant future 1500 has a reputation beyond repute 2000 You can see the reputation of every user at the right side of every post with green squares. You can give positive or negative reputation points. A normal user have usually 10 points, (he have at least 25 posts to allow to give or remove reputations points) by example if he registered 6 months ago and have 40 posts, he have the following altering power points: Example 1: 180 days = 6 month of membership 40 posts and have 10 reputation points altering power points = (180 / 90) + (40 / 30) + (10 / 10) = 2 + 1 + 1 =4 That means that everytime that he give or remove reputation to an user he will give only +3 points or will remove -3 points respectively. Example 2: Profile of a nokiafree veteran: 365 days = 1 year of membership 500 posts and have 10 reputation points altering power points = (365 / 90) + (500 / 30) + (10 / 10) = 4 + 16 + 1 = 21 That means that everytime that he give or remove reputation to an user he will give +55 points or will remove -55 points respectively. Moderators have additional altering reputation power, because when they add reputation points to an user its because he really is good, or in the other case when they substract reputation points its the user is going to be warned to be banned, so we will use this system now to give users 1, 2 or 3 warns to the users before they are warned.
