Yes and no......
If someone does you a favour, or you enjoyed their post/thread etc, you can leave them some reputation by clicking on the scales at the top right of their post.
To view reputation, either click on the scales on one of your posts or go to your user cp to view what has been said.
I don't know what the rep points add up to though, I am trying to save for a new landrover, but its taking a long time...........

Jon’s got this well covered The point of it is that it’s a measure of what people think of other people, their posts and actions. As a general rule someone with a high reputation has made well respected posts and helped other people out.

They don’t actually ad up to anything in as much as rewards and the like, they’re just a representation of the person and an opportunity for people to give that person feedback.

Thanks for the explanation

I wondered if the Reputation Points added up thus creating the description to the right of one's avatar, such as "Native", "Settler", etc.

Unless I have missed something you can't actually get to see someone else's reputation points, so you can feel real good with just a couple or with 100s cause no one else can know.

But can you get negative points?

 

[Klenchblaize]

Is it possible to have a figure with - in front?!?!

Cheers

Hover over the green dot and you get a homily.
People with loads of rep get extra dots, people with lots of negative rep get a red dot.

 

[JonnyP]

Lol at you guys. Cheers for the reps, slowly getting new parts for the landy now :You_Rock_

Well I hovered over the green dot - "rich 59 will become famous soon enough" but the rest of us who have posted to this thread are "on a distinguished road"!!

Who’s got the “Distinguished Map for the Distinguished Road”?



Phil.

 

[Marts]

Yep. I think it goes up from "distinguished road" to "famous soon enough" once you have received 50 reputation points.
Rich59 is a shining example to us all.

Then you get two dots at a hundred. I think there's only one BCUKer with 2 dots

 

[Lurch]

Yeah we don't seem to use them much over here. On BB we use them a lot, but you used to be able to see how many points you had as well as the green dots.

 

[rich59]

Goodness me, I didn't have 50 points this morning, but now I do.

And now I have spotted a double green spot rarity.

 

[jasons]

do we relly need points

 

[Tony]

Err, if you're not interested in what people are talking about don't read it and what's the point of contributing to a thread that you're slating, if you don't like it don't go near it

 

[Ahjno]

Would it be possible to hand in some rep. points you've got for some nice shiny kit?

Ok, I'll get my coat and make myself usefull with some studying

Too many egos who take it all too seriously to be honest, get rid of it in my opinion.
