I have given out too much reputation in the last 24 hours.

Sorry, guys!

[freonjoe]

What does that mean?

[mikeinreco]

Well hopefully you added to my positive reputation and not my evil twins negative reputation (He takes over when I'm tired or irritated)

Yea, but we can't tell you apart, you both look alike,,,lol

Apparently I thanked too many users for their useful posts. When I clicked on the little reputation star it gave me the message in the title of the post.

You can thank someone, OR, give them reputation on a particular post. You cannot do both on the same post. Is this what you mean? There's no limit that I'm aware of, if you don't mind feel free to open up a support ticket and we'll look into it.

Oh my gosh, i didn't even know we had this feature! I read the OP and was like ''Huh what??'' lol.

So, what exactly is this reputation thingy?


ETA: never mind, found the link explaining. disregard!

Apparently I'm too stupid to figure this out. I got some reputation thing in my notifications. IDK what that means. How do I give/get reputation? I read the FAQ too, but I am too stupid to understand that as well. LOL.

Should be a little star looking icon next to the thanks button.

yep, just to the right of it.

Admin, or Mech if you know...Is thanks tied into rep? As I find sometimes I'll hit the rep button an get the "You've given out to much reputation today" but I've not actually done so. Other then giving thanks to a post. Heck I think giving PJ rep was the first time I've actually clicked on the little star an had it let me give someone rep.

An does being thanked give you rep also? I'll use myself as an example. I've received rep messages before, not very many mind you, but some. Yet my rep is near maxed or maxed according to the little bars under my name. Is this due to people thanking my posts? Am I just that awesome? Someone taking pity on me? A bribe to shut me up?(That obviously didn't work if so. I kid I kid! )

Inquiring scrappers want to know. Well..I do anyways.

Sirscrapalot - Pigs can't stare straight up. - This is your useless an pointless fact for the day. Your welcome.

Yes thanks is tied into rep. Every time you give a thanks, you also give +1 reputation points.

I'll look into the limit and see if there is anything I can adjust.

[Sirscrapalot]

Thank ya for the answer Admin.

It explains a lot. I had figured they were tied to each other, but good to have it straight from the Admin's uh..keyboard.

OK I found the star icon, but it does nothing. I am currently using XP with Chrome as my browser. And I realize I can't Thank AND give rep. I can thank all day long...just nothing with the star.
