Little green reputation dot? (merged)

Just noticed it this evening, so its pretty new! Not sure what it means! :confused:

It's part of vBulletin's "reputation" system. In the lower left hand corner of each post, you should see a new button (the image of the scale). That button allows you to leave either positive or negative reputation re: the post, based on whether it was helpful, constructive, etc.

People who consistently get positive rep see an increase in their rep (usually signified by more green dots). Similarly, people who receive negative rep see a decrease (often indicated by a red dot).

At least...this is the way it works in most vBulletin installations.

The system can be fun if people don't take it too seriously. On the other hand, negative rep has been known to create a lot of hurt feelings where it really shouldn't.

Personally, I am a fan of the system...

:D
 

Reputation?!

I must have missed the memo. Apparently I have a reputation of 10, but I have no idea what this is about. It isn't April 4th, so I'm confused. Is there anywhere I can go for information in this regard? When did this happen?

I, uh, hope this is the right forum for this.

Cool new feature

I just noticed the button at the bottom of everyone's posts that allows me to modify their overall reputation with my opinion.

This is too cool. I don't know how long it's been there or who added it, but I like it, and immediately gave Buttercup the positive feedback she so richly deserves.
