[QUOTE="fba827, post: 4799241, member: 807"] There was a link i had but it no longer functions ... But quick highlights that I remember: 1) can't give out more than 2 xp awards per day 2) can't give xp to the same person until you have given at least 50 xp awards to other people inbetween (i.e. you can't sit there giving all your xp to the same person repeatedly). 3) your "Rep Power" determines how many xp you give out per giving of xp award (almost everyone is set to 1, though some people like morrus have higher power levels) 4) you can't give out negative rep 5) if you were a member when they started this, you started with 10 xp, if you later joined you started at 1 xp 6) new members have their rep power start at 0 (so you can't just make a bunch of accounts and give your main account xp). but after time or post count (forget which) it eventually increases to rep power 1 7) you can disable xp which means you can't give it out or pay attention to the scores, but people could still technically give you some .... that's all i remember at the moment, though there may be a couple more highlights i'm forgetting. and, of course, i can't account for any little tweaks/changes done to the system since that info was given way back at the start/testing phase. Edit: Added 8) You give xp by clicking on the scales icon that is on the bottom left side of each post below, each username 9) If you don't see the scales icon for other people's posts to give xp, chances are that your account lacks email confirmation (I see that same question asked more than once so i thought i'd add that in) 10) the number of xp required to go up isn't a set/same amount for each bump, each level requires an increased amount of xp between levels 11) levels are named after monster names in the MM (technically out of the 4e MM1, but they are generic enough monsters that it applies to all versions of D&D) Edit #2, Added: 12) You can only give 3 xp awards per day 13) By going to your user control panel, and scrolling down to the very bottom, you can see the [u]recent[/u] xp you have given (if any) as well as received (if any), and your xp total next in that same area as well. Edit #3, Added: 14) To the left of each post, below the poster's username and below number of posts, you can see a rectangle(s). If you hover the mouse pointer over that, you can see the poster's current level (or if they have it disabled). But generally speaking, a grayed out box means they have it disabled, a green box is that they have some xp, the more green boxes means that they have a considerably higher level. there are one of two people with red boxes, those are for negative xp (but that function is not enabled and the only instances i've seen of this have been either a moderator that did it to himself for fun or a glitch on someone's account that has since been corrected) [/QUOTE]
