View Full Version : Is Rep counter working properly?

I have given rep points to several people and I never see the counter increment.

After giving the rep point I cannot give another rep point, but when I do a refresh of the page the counter still stays the same.



Am I doing something wrong or is there something wrong with the counter?

neither.

As of now, your rep points are grey (not green) and do not increase a person's rep number. Green reps are achieved after you have posted over a certain number of times (around 50 posts)

This is to ensure people do not create another account for the sole purpose of repping themselves.

Keep posting and soon enough your reps will be green :)

Once you have a certain amount of reps, the ones you give will soon count & be shown when giving reputation.

Thanks for the info. That explains it.

That means that the reps count towards you total Reputation Points.

That's a sad state to be in...

You'd have to REALLY want reps!!

I think if this fail safe was put into place, some people were doing it.
