Reputation

[JohnS]

What does "Reputation" mean and why do keno, tom and kevin have black marks and everyone else has green?

[Climb01742]

i thought those black or green circles or dots meant online (green) or not online (black). where is "reputation"?

[Tom]

When I mouse over the black mark next to my name, it says I have a 'disabled' reputation. I disagree. I think my reputation is quite enabled, and it is that I am an idiot that has no idea how to write or speak English, no knowledge of the technical aspects of cycling, and I am a slow and whiny rider that is prone to sudden changes of line and braking for no apparent reason.

That reputation is accurate, folks!

[JohnS]

I don't know about those. I'm talking about the squares by your name and on the Members List.

john, i found it. it is strange. is it like in school, having a "permanent record". be careful, or it'll go in your "permanent record". :confused:

I was worried about the black mark also, since I have one, until I saw that Serotta_Alyson has the black mark too. But you can change it in the User CP.

[BumbleBeeDave]

. . . my "reputation" is "off the scale!!"

Unfortunately it doesn't say which WAY it is "off the scale!"

But I am so grateful to Serotta Alyson for the NEW SMILIES!

BBDave :eek:

[Climb01742]

ah, bbdave, practically everyone's reputation is "off the scale". sorry. :cool:

[BarryG]

Uh - oh.

This is going to open up a whole big can of worms, but the devil made me do it . . .

Click on the scales icon on the right side of any posting's title bar.

Yikes,
Barry :rolleyes:

[BumbleBeeDave]

. . . click on the exclamation point icon . . . if somebody isn't playing nice you can TATTLE on them! :butt:

BBDave :no:

[Kevan]

off-line indicator. No?

And sometimes....invisible!

[Climb01742]

who redesigned the phorum? george orwell? that scales thing is a bit 1984. or the former eastern bloc. are "re-education" courses far behind?

[Kevin]

Every teacher I ever had in school gave me a black mark. I guess it really does go on your permanent record.

Left click "User CP", left click "Edit Options", and under "Login & Privacy" you will find your reputation level. Apparently, I haved opted not to show mine despite the fact that no one asked. But, I'm not complaining 'cause I'm a 10. If you should see Bo and me next to each other, you will see we are well matched.

You are my computer idol. I now have a reputation.
