This tutorial is about User reputation.

What is user reputation? Well, the more you post and give helpful advice, the more your reputation increases. Here is the full details.

NOTE: The user reputation button is at the bottom of every post and is a PINK HEART:

If you see a post from someone that you feel should increase their reputation, just click this Heart button. You will be given the option to place a short comment about why you are giving reputation to them. So what deserves reputation? Sharing photos, great stories, giving advice, making you laugh.... these are things that deserve reputation.

If you get any reputation, you will get a notification of a "New Like".

The more reputation you receive, the more points (reputation power) you have. So people with high reputation give more points than people with low reputation.

You can view your posts that have received reputation by click on "settings" at the top of the forums.
Noone else can see this area but you, it is a part of your personal profile information. When you give a helpful post or reputation to someone, this is the only area where you can view the details of whom may have issued it to you. This is also where you will see your current reputation power. Remember, you must first get reputation to gain reputation power.

If you become a 4 Paw Member, you will have two additional benefits to user reputation. You will be allowed to give negative reputation, and you will also be able to see which users have given you reputation. You can also see the "Reputation" tab in member profiles. CLICK HERE to find out more about being a 4 Paw Member.

As a final note, user reputation is meant to be fun and not hurtful, so those who have the ability to give negative reputation, please do it with caution.

No...thankfully you can't give "thumbs down" on the posts. :whew: Unless you do it this way. :down: If it turns red...it might be your browser. You should be able to leave reputation (but not to the same person twice in a row) If it turns red..that might be the case. When I was using Explorer...the window would open beneath the post and you couldn't see it. :down:
 
No it turns red when you click on it. A box should pop up that says I approve I disapprove and a spot to write a comment
 
That's what I meant...but didn't say. If it turns red and you don't see the box...it might be your browser. I'm still giggling about April fools.

:bump:
i never knew what rep was but this tutorial is really good. hope the new members can see as well
 
Hi I'm still a newbie and came across this thread, I see the pink heart but I don't see the blue thumbs up?

Blue thumbs up was when the site first started..... Pink heart is the new icon. You used it right, I got your rep you sent me. :up:
 
I JUST found this thread...I had no idea about "reps" and hearts...I've been doing the thumbs up though. Still navigating my way around here and learning...so the heart is different from a thumbs up?, [MENTION=2894]2BullyMama[/MENTION]
