Re: Reputation?

Hadn't really changed reputation settings from the defaults. Just went in to look at some of the options and made a couple of changes.

The default setting for "number of people you must rep before you can rep the same person" was 20, reduced it to 3.

The regular user group can now see who is giving them reputation and associated comments.

As a general guide, you don't have to agree with someone's point of view to give them +rep - is the post constructive,informative,thought provoking,well meaning, etc and overall adds something to the discussion? The idea behind rep is that the community is somewhat self-moderating via the reputation system.

Also, the more rep you have, the more it counts when you give rep to someone else.
