We have updated our Reputation System in order to reduce the abuse of it. We have mainly made changes to the factors that affect your Rep Power.
What is the Reputation System?
This is a system where it allows users to approve/disapprove other member's post.
1. Reputation bar - This bar indicates how much reputation points you have. You can see the amount of reputation points you have in your User CP.
2. How do I rep people? You can alter another member's reputation by clicking the REP button on the bottom left of posts and approve/disapprove their post along with a comment. For example, if a member has helped you, you can approve of their post with a comment saying "Thanks for your help!".
What is Rep Power?
Rep power indicates how many points you add/take away to/from another user's reputation. There are several factors that affect your rep power. A few of them include:
Register Date Factor
For every 150 days since the date of registration, the user gains 1 point in their reputation-altering power.
[Used to be 60 days]
Post Count Factor

Reputation Point Factor:
For every 100 points, the user gains 1 point in their reputation-altering power.
[Used to be 10 points]
