When did that change Waylander?

Waylander

11th February 2006, 14:06

As far as I can tell it's always been that way. Half the rep I have came from posts in PD.

Waylander I hardly even see any of your posts. I don't check PD, maybe that is why!!

when you put someone on your ignore list, you don't get to see any rep they give you.

If they gave you red rep, your rep points would go down but you wouldn't see it.

I'll search out the post that says you don't earn rep points from PD and you lose it if a post or thread you're in gets moved to PD you lose it.

Someone rep this post and then move it to PD, I'll confirm the theory if you want.

Waylander

11th February 2006, 14:26

"Last one to post in here gets a dollar"
"Adios Fuckholes!"

Those are both in PD. take a look at part of my rep board.
Zorst's explanation sounds plausable.

Could be you can see the rep Waylander but the overall score will not change. Samn as posting in PD will not raise your post count. Just a theory

Waylander

11th February 2006, 14:30

Ok lets test that. Post something in this thread,

Ohh i have a good idea to test if my rep goes up,

Everyone give me green rep and ill tell you if it works k

:lol:

waylander, it worked a treat ;), dont know what it was before it went up so try again :p. it did go up though ;)

11th February 2006, 14:40

i think i have around 380 now :p

Waylander

11th February 2006, 14:40

Ok check again and post what you're at. Then we will do what I said in the rep.

11th February 2006, 14:41

Ok Waylander, my rep points increased to 6066.

11th February 2006, 14:42

dont give him more!!!!!

Waylander

11th February 2006, 14:42

Done. any change?

21 points? all my rep and posts and all that adds to rep weight only add up to 21points?

Sniper

11th February 2006, 14:45

No change still on 6066. The post is gone, but the rep remains. Now if a moderator (not every one else) can pop a red rep my way to put my score back to 6045 so Im not cheating, that would be good.

Well we disproved a couple of theories there. I found out mine was wrong.

Oh and how many do you have?

Waylander

11th February 2006, 14:53

Search the site stuff forum or the threads I started. I posted one a while back that eplained a good deal of how rep works and what does what or since I am a mere two houses down the road from you I could stop by lol.
Had nothing on the thread starters problem though.

To test my theory, i added pyrocam to my ignore list, and sure enough, his rep "postings" dissapeared, but the points i got from them didn't.

I took screenshots to prove it:stoogie:

Too subtle for a certain member who didn't realise what I was getting at in the 'Police attitude' thread. And still hasn't!

Didn't think I had put any thought into it. (my posting)
