Reputation and forum levels

[m89maru]

what's the deal with reputation and forum rankings? how many levels are there? why can't I see my reputation in my User CP like the FAQ says I can? Does reputation allow me (or disallow me) to do certain things?

Reputation can be seen under your post count and your ranking increases depending on the amount of posts you have. I want to say there are 8-10 levels off the top of my head.

Click on your User CP and on the bottom you will see: Latest Reputation Received.

How far down the bottom? I don't see anything that says 'Last reputation received', If I have a green icon at all that means I have reputation right? This is what is on my screen:

Everyone starts at one green icon. It's not showing in your CP because you don't have any.

I just clicked on my own "Add reputation points" and it said I had 10 reputation points, but can't find anything in the CP to point me as to how I got those..any suggestions? or am I just looking in the wrong place?

It should be listed under your subscribed thread section of the user CP. I don't think you can give yourself points. Reputation is sort of like a "Thanks" button, which is also supposed to be implemented any time now.

Ok thanks, I noticed it said I couldn't add rep for myself, I thought I looked in my subscribed thread but I guess I missed it..I'll have to check again, I was just trying to find the 10 it said I had..
