I can see in my account that I have 11 reputation points.What these points actually mean?Thanks

Good question since this is something I have switched "on" but haven't messed with too much yet.

The User Reputation system allows board members to leave comments about one anothers' posts, and thereby contribute to their overall 'reputation'.

On everyone's post, you will see a little "scale" icon. Click this and you can approve or disapprove with another persons post. You can leave a comment on this as well. You may view these comments (one's made towards you) in your user CP.

There are titles for a variety of reputation levels, and users are given a reputation title when they reach a certain reputation level. Most everyone starts off at 10 - I have increased the numbers on some of the oldtimers by the way

This is something that I belive will enhance the quality of the postings and I trust it will not be abused with "you suck" and these sort of comments. Unless of course the person really sucks

Just a post to see what my rep is. I am only brand new and I want some green bars to appear.

Heck, now I've got to make a post to see what my reputation bar looks like.

Man, this was an old thread that was "stuck" here for too long. People should rate other users posts more often; I guess I need to give people an incentive to do this like give money away or something

When I try to do it, I usually get the message that I should spread some more reputation around before giving it again to X, even when I have probably given reputation points to a dozen other people in the meanwhile.

Hmmm, odd. Guess it's time to check the ol' admin section...

Okay - gotcha. It was set at "20" users you must shell out reputation points to before giving rep points to the same user - now I've reset it to 10. And you have to have 15 posts minimum in order to give reputation points to anyone.
