Rep Info 101
What is a rep? Why would I rep? A rep aka “Reputation Point” is a way to say “thank you” or “I appreciate you” to a fellow peep on SD. You may have read a post that was helpful; Or that person alerted you to a deal or a coupon that you were not aware of or answered a question for you. How do I rep? To give a peep a rep, you click on the little colored square that is to the left of their post next to their Reputation number. A pop up box will appear and you can leave a comment in that box. Some people leave funny comments, some just say Thank You, and some say nothing at all. Most peeps do however say something! How many reps do I get to give? Are they unlimited? No, they are not unlimited. However, how many peeps you get to rep in a day is a mystery. Perhaps it is one of the great SD secrets!!. It appears you get to rep 10 peeps in a 24 hour cycle. There are some limitations as to how often you can rep the same person. No need to figure that out as the SD system will let you know if you can rep a peep again or if it has been too soon. Sometimes those reps go fast and you wish you had more that day and other days they seem always available. You get the privilege to rep right after you become a SD member. BUT, your reps do not “count” until you have 50 posts accumulated. I assume this is to stop people from creating accounts just to rep themselves. Your “newbie” reputation points do show up in the user’s rep box, so they can read your comments, but they do not count towards their Reputation Total. When the box is green they count. When the box is purple, they are below the 50 post count. When do I get reps? Each peep starts out with the token 10 rep points. Your fellow peeps “rep” you when you offer something useful, helpful, funny, etc. on the thread. The more senior the SD member, the more the reps will count towards your total. What is the value of my reps? Each peep starts out with their reps counting as “1” rep point. *You get an additional rep point for every calendar year you are a SD member. *You get an additional rep point once you get to 500 posts. *You get an additional rep point once you make 1,000 posts. *You get an additional rep point once you make 10,000 posts. The maximum number of rep point value you can have is “4”. It will not increase despite new plateaus they reach. You can not determine how many rep points you want to assign to a person. When you “rep” a peep, the computer will decide for you based on your status and longevity. How do I know who repped me? You can view the last 5 people who “repped” you and their comments by clicking the “User CP” button in the tool bar on the upper left hand corner of your screen. If you want to view all of the reps you have given and received go to “Quick Links” in the black tool bar – Then “Your Profile”. Scroll down to the third section and you will see a tab to the right of “Deals I Like” that says “Reps” and “Reps Given”. You can view everything here. Only you can see your own rep points. This information is not available to other peeps. What is “being bold”? When you get 100 rep points you “go bold”. The advantage of “being bold” means that your Private Messaging storage increases. I tried to rep but it won’t let me? You can’t rep a peep for a post that is over 30 days old or in a retired thread. The SD system will not allow this. I wanted to rep a peep yet they don’t have a rep box. Why? Each peep has the option to “turn off” their ability to receive reps. Any other rep info? Not all forums allow reps to be given. Just some forums. Also, SD generally prohibits or discourages asking for reps for oneself. Rep trading is not allowed. |

I don't shop Krogers too often. Just a heads up. I bought powerade today. I had a hang tag for buy 10, get 5 free. They couldn't scan this Q at the register and the CS person couldn't figure it out, so they just gave me cash back. I have used these in prior sales and never had an issue like this before.
