Found the setting, now you can see who left you what reputation. If you are a member of the "Veteran" usergroup, which most of you are.

I can see which post I got it for, but not who gave it. Sometimes it's easy to figure out.

[Dan Hocker]

I wonder if it's my super admin powers, but I can see who gave me rep and what thread / post it was for.

That my friend is pretty repititious.oops.There goes my rep

No they do. Rep Power and Rep aren't the same thing. Rep power is the ammount of rep points you give out every time you give / take away rep from someone. To view the number of rep points you have click settings up at the top.

Rep power. Dan's is 10, Grant's and mine are worth 6, Sieps is worth 4. Your's and quite a few others' is 2.

I think we misunderstood each other. I wasn't confused on rep power and how much each person has. From what I understood of your post I quoted you on, "I look at the point gain for each one and try to guess who did it! 10, 6, and 4 are pretty easy. 1 and 2 are tougher." was that somewhere in settings where it shows the thread you received rep in, you can see the rep power next to the post, hence your ability to guess who gave it out.

[Teriw]

got it. It's been above 10 for a few weeks I believe since I have 36

And I've gifted you some points as well Teri (22 for you today thus far) from point of view of I feel sorry for you having to interpret exactly what these Mystery Points are all about

[Teriw]

got it.

This is what I meant...I dont understand

If you click settings up top, it will tell you how many rep points you have. If it's over 10 (which it is as you just recieved 16 points from Squire and I) all the rep you've given out to this date actually counts now. If it's below 10 it won't count until it goes above 10.

Here I'll list them off.

You get 1 point of rep power for every year you've been a forum member.

You get 1 point of rep power for every 500 posts you make.

You get 1 point of rep power for every 100 rep points you receive.


Here's a couple other rules:

You have to have a reputation of 10 before rep you give others actually counts.

You can only give rep 10 times per day.

You have to give rep to 3 different people before you can give someone rep again.

..I still think she has a good rep

PHew, thought I was getting a bad rep for complaining. haha...mostly about being poor and how slow USPS is.

[srboone]

But her rep went up by 16. Only she can see what her rep points are. But I think her Rep Power will go up 1 at 500 posts.
