I feel like Joan Jett

[Paul]

I seem to have earned a bad reputation.

At the bottom of the main forum page, there is a list of different stats.

The Top Reputations thing has me confused. What does it measure? How do I change it? Why does james on bass have 8 times the reputation of me? I cleary have at least 16% more strings, and likely 33% more strings than him. That should count for something!!!!!!!!:smile::smile:

Seriously though....what the H-E-double hockey sticks is this reputation stat??????

[Accept2]

I think you lose reputation points if you announce that you feel like a natural woman. Or was that Joan Jett?..........

[suttree]

if i felt like joan jett, i don't think i'd leave the house :D

[Rumble_b]

When I saw the title I thought that you just loved Rock and Roll!?!?!

But yeah, what the hell is this reputation thing??

[Hamm Guitars]

I'll trade ya... I kind of like having a bad rep.

I have no idea how I got a good one, maybe because I have a computer in the bathroom?

[Paul]

.....computer in the bathroom?

Now I have that song by The English Beat stuck in my head......sometimes going to highschool in the 80's is a real pain in the ear!

Oh, and ewwwwwwww. Remind me to never check my @mail at your house.

Suttree, yeah ... not so much for me. Carmen Electra on the other hand !:

Reputation is given to you by other members.

There is a little scale up in the top right corner of a post. If you like what a member said add to his his good reputation. If the member is being an arse add to his bad reputation.

We have now turned the forum into a popularity contest...

Just added to your reputation. You're one step closer to becoming queen of the prom.

Thanks... now I know.

Fifteen months, almost 1500 posts, and I am "gaining a good rep". This is a tough room!

(and in the past few minutes I have become "a great contributor". That's a positive sign!)

Pity sex, pity points......I take it all, baby!!!

[Mooh]

Never noticed it before...now I'm afraid to post.

[Paul]

....and now I'm "...a respected member of this board".

Should I start preparing a speech?

[bobb]

....and now I'm "...a respected member of this board".

No, just start spreading the rep around to the rest of us lowly minions :smilie_flagge17:

[suttree]

Suttree, yeah ... not so much for me. Carmen Electra on the other hand !:

i'd take joan over carmen in a heartbeat. a) carmen was married to that shirtless douchebag dave navarro, and i wouldn't touch her after that.... and b) joan would be much more interesting to talk to afterwards (and i'd put money down that she'd be better in the sack)..

[Hamm Guitars]

Anyway to get this to play when someone checks my rep?

I wouldn't touch either of them with Clinton Hammond's dick and Milkman pushing! I'm pretty sure you need penecillin just to be in the same room as either of them. Two of them together is a bio-hazard.

Jeff gave me some pity points:

I'm sure that there are enough people here to knock me back down to reality.

But I'll give you a point for caring.

Seriously though....what the H-E-double hockey sticks is this reputation stat??????

The reputation score takes into account several things. it gives points automatically for the amount of time you have been a member, gives points for certain levels of posts you make, other members can also add or take away from your rep by clicking on the scales icon on any post you make. Essentially it is snapshot of your standing on the board. Here is the official FAQ on it.

What is reputation?

Reputation is a way of rating users depending on the quality of their posts. If the administrators have enabled reputation, then the reputation icon will be visible in posts.

Reputation may be positive , negative or neutral . Negative reputation may only be given if the administrator has enabled this. Neutral reputation is only given when the person giving reputation does not meet the criteria set by the administrator to affect someone else's reputation.

How do I give reputation?

To give reputation, click on the reputation icon in the relevant post. This will reveal a form to complete with the reputation type and the reason for giving the reputation. If negative reputation is disabled then it will not be displayed in this form. You may not give reputation for the same post twice.

How do I know what reputation I have received?

You can view the reputation that you have received in your User CP (User Control Panel) where it is displayed at the bottom of the User CP page. Here you will see the latest reputation that you have received and whether this is positive, negative or neutral. Your total reputation will be shown as series of reputation indicators in your posts and profile. The more positive your reputation, the more positive icons will be shown. The more negative your reputation the more negative icons will be shown.

How much reputation is given? What is reputation power?

If the administrator has enabled this, the amount of reputation that each user will give (or take away if negative) is shown in the user's posts as 'Reputation Power'. The value of the reputation power is determined by the administrator and may increase over time depending on the settings they have applied.

What if I don't want anyone to see my reputation?

You can disable the display of your reputation by going to your User CP and selecting Edit Options. On this page you will find a check box labelled 'Show Your Reputation Level'. Un-checking this box will remove the display of your reputation and replace it with the Reputation Disabled icon. You can still give and receive reputation while your reputation display is disabled.

Mooh, why did you chicken out? I was just about to give you some good rep! :smile:

I kinda miss CH, in some odd perverted sense.

Oh... MY... GOD I just snorted coffee out thru my nose!! HA!HA! You forgot Carmen was (briefly) Married to Denis Rodman....

You got a bad reputation
Thats the word out on the town
It gives a certain fascination
But it can only bring you down
You better turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around
You had bad breaks well thats tough luck
You play too hard too much rough stuff
Youre too sly so cold
That bad reputation has made you old
Turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around

[Paul]

Wonder what they say about you :D

Ruh-roh, I just realized how unclear my "joke" was.

To be clear, Joan Jett & Carment Elektra are presumed to be diseased, and I would not want to risk my good friends ClintonHammond and Milkman being exposed to that disease.

Sorry guys.......:smile:

[allthumbs56]

"odd perverted sense" describes him well.

But now that you mention it - I kinda miss him too (In a "doesn't it feel good when you stop banging your head against a wall" kinda way)
