Green Bars

[Bob Scott]

What happened? This morning there were 8 or 9 green bars below my name. Now there are only 3.
Moderator, what did I do wrong??

I'll look into this for you.

The rep button has been acting up lately. Some people get full rep with just one press

This happened when I gave a 'rep' to a member.

I think the more rep you have, the more rep you can give in one hit (or at least I think it used to be weighted like that).

What is rep?

hi Squire,
Its Reputation, look at the black Star located at the bottom of posts.

Hi knight E,

Does this mean acquiring more reputation will add a green bar below a member's name?

--It's exam week here knight e. I dedicated my time on school requirements.
I will get back on the hierarchical model for the LTspice sim after. Thank you.

I got you three more bars with one rep Bob - enjoy

 

[Bob Scott]

Thanks picbits.
So, if anyone disgrees with another's post they can remove green bars?

If they disagree with a post, they can hit the -1, which doesn't remove rep. +1 adds rep. The "I disapprove" button under the badge at the bottom left is what removes rep, but IMO that should only be used in extreme cases, if the person is being inappropriate, excessively rude, purposely giving incorrect information, etc. I very rarely use the badge. Most of the time the +/-1 works for me

P.S. My "I approve" just added 5 bars

Thanks DerStrom.
I have not felt this good since Grade one. Good students received gold star stickers on their work.*
I feel all warm and fuzzy inside.




*That was way back in England in 1955. I don't remember what they called student levels, but it wasn't "Grade"s. Maybe it was "Form 1"?

Hahaha, I never got gold stars in grade school. Only in Sunday School

I have just altered the rep system to give higher ranking members less power. This will in turn make the rep bars go up slower and be harder to earn.
