The rep and report buttons

[Hyunshi]

I just get sad looking at my lack of rep.

Is there a limit to how much rep a person can give in a day or anything?
Or for that matter, how much a person can receive?

A person has too give a certain amount of rep too other people before they can rep the same person, but there is no limit too how many times a person can rep or receive rep in one day.

It’s really nothing to be sad about Cherifly. Rep doesn’t reflect anything about you or your stature on the forum. At the end of the day, it’s just a few green bars under your handle, not anything to be upset about. Your worth on the forum is in no way judged by how many bars you have

Perfect example would be Arek, if we all took rep at face value, he’d be the most hated member on the forum right now, but that just isn’t the case (he’s only the second most hated :P). It’s your posts and contribution in and around the forum that matters, not your rep points.

As I’ve said before, the only real purpose rep serves is to help you become a senior member once you’ve got your 50 required points it ceases to have a purpose really.

To answer your question though, there’s no limit to the amount of rep a person to give out per day, but there is a limit on how many times you can rep an individual person. Say I repped you, I would then have to rep X amount of other members before I could rep you again. This is mainly to prevent people from boosting each others rep for them over and over again. There’s also no limit to how much pos/neg rep a person can receive. See Arek for an example of infinity negative and CW for an example of infinity positive :P

Hope that helps.

to be exact, my rep is -2147483647

Hmm, wonder how long it would take to pos rep you back in the green?

Considering the average rep given is what 10-15, somtimes less probably about 200 million times

Also Cherifly, to my knowledge your rep is either increased more or less, if those people handing it out have more rep themselves. So say someone like CW gives you good rep, then you would get a hefty increase, than say a new member.

But as Hannah said, wouldn't worry about it, I mean you could be in the position Arek is in, which I might add, should his rep start creeping back up to the green, I might have to change that personally, just for giggles.

I think we should have a gf record to see how quickly we can get Arek green again

And Cherifly Hanah's right, I mean me and Blue had a rep fest where we both repped each other as much as we could just to get the green bar lol great memories. So the amount of rep doesn't really make a difference to ur stature on here.

PS, if Blue asks, this convo never happened...
