Just wondering if somene can read their own Reputation comments?
I noticed that giving someone a good reputation actually added another green dot under thier user name.

Was wondering if someone could actually read the reputations remarks people make about them? (the Scale icon for Reputation)

The ones you've made or the ones made about you? The second are in User CP. Comments you've made I can't find right off.

Spent a few minutes going through User CP.
Didn't find anything on the Reputation comments.
Please send hint!

For me, it's right on the landing page of User CP, titled:

Latest Reputation Received

Comments are to the far right. Or am I misunderstanding what you're looking for?

Duh!
Oh, the very big bar titled Latest Reputation Received with multiple listings...
That will teach me to look at anything early Sunday Morning.
Thanks, I was looking for a hyper link, not something that huge.

yes

rep points accumulate to give more green dots.

new users don't contribute points though.

I thought the rep was helpful. probably spurred me on to try and get another green dot, anyway!

Giving someone a Reputation post prevents a user from giving one to the same person until some reputation is spread around. Just guessing it is 20?
I make it a point to give them out if something is useful... or if the Joke is actually funny.
I noticed the green dot addition was instant!
Your right, the Nike' Generation needs and answer and wants someone to "just do it"
Then again, Maybe the dots could be replaced with something that looks like money? They might think they were actually tipping?

I just noticed that I had 10 reputation points but didn't know what that meant until I searched and found this thread.

Can't seem to find any details in the CP like you all were talking about however...

It's pretty hard to miss - it's front and center on the landing screen in your CP. See attached photo.

Do you at least see the bar with 'Latest Reputation Received'? It's collapsible, so it might be closed.

And I don't see any way to configure it in the user options.

I wonder if it's some sort of bug from being a gold supporter? /strawgrasp

Who knows...and my motivation is purely selfish; I want more green dots/square! I try to handle the newbie questions as much as possible but with the new job in Italy, it is difficult to make time.

Hi

I can see my reputation points (RP) but am unable to see any connection between reputation comments and points added.

Sometimes someone clicks the scales & points go up but other times no change in points even when the comment is really positive (or presumably negative)

I'd be grateful if someone could explain this as
a) I'd like to ensure that when I click the scales for another forum member it does affect their RPs
b) Being selfish, I'd like to get more for myself when users are being complimentary

Anyone able to explain...

One time I gave someone a positive review, and I actually noticed them seeing another Green rectangle. Other than that it is a mystery to me.
Maybe if its negative, it is a coffin instead of a rectangle? LOL

TEST:
I just added to Ridders reputation. He has 1 green rectangle.
Can others do the same, click the scales and add to his reputation.
Then post so we can get a Count. See what happens.

Thanks very much, though I wasn't trying to 'fish' for compliments
You have indeed increased the points

I've now done the some in reverse.
Hopefully it also increased yours

I think the Rep is a sliding scale ? I noticed I went up one green dot at about 100 rep points ? Weirdly the text that appears when you hover over the dots changes without the number of dots always changing...
