How do I see if a rep point is positive or negative?

Mods can give out more than one point. If I were a mod (silent plug) I would give everyone more than one point.

The short answer is yes, some people can give out more than one rep point at a time.

I think most mods can give only one rep point at a time per post. The ones who are endowed with super-duper powers, like Jenna and Chunky and Fahim and Mac, dole out ten points in one shot.

someplace around here, anyone seen my keys?
We can test how many it takes it if you'd all like to give my post a rep :D

You should scroll up to that post if you want to participate in the test. I'm getting reps on other posts and the point is to see how many it takes to change the status from "Somewhat Positive" to something else.

Of course I could just ask ChunkyC.

But then I wouldn't be getting any rep pts...;)

Oh, to answer about giving points -

The total point count for member is 1 pt and you can only rep a post once.
Supermods give 3pts per rep
Admins give 10
I forget if non-Super Moderators give 3 points or 1. It's discussed somewhere on the FAQ forum I think.

I don't have an option to give fewer than 3 - so I couldn't choose to give someone only 1 or 2.

That help?

Could you give me a rep, just to see of course, for my research.

Could be that in the upgrade my ability to give out 3 pts got re-set. I'll ask ChunkyC about it. Thanks!

Always glad to help :D . I'm here all day and most of the night if you should need me. Although I may go get some sleep now, just figured out what time it is.

see the little empty square to the left of the thread the rep comment came from? right click it. there is a drop down menu, choose properties. A pop up box will appear. part of the properties in that long string of stuff is either "pos" or "neg". that's how you tell.


I tried it. It only works if you click right inthe middle of the square, at the same level as the wording on the right, If you click anywhere else on the sqauer all you get in the pop-up is "miscellaneous properties".

It's too bad there isn't just a dot, blue or green for good, red for bad. Easy to see at a glance.

Freckles, highlight a few of your rep points (just do the whole thing, like you were going to cut and paste them). Over to your left, you will now see a darkened little square in the empty margin. After you see where they are, right click on the "mystery box", then click "properties". You can then see whether it's a positive or negative comment.
