    Brandir says thank you to Brandir for this useful post....
    Does having mad Rep mean anything? I guess I treat Thanks as the equivalent of the Facebook “Like” feature. I’m sure that’s not how it’s intended to be used, but that’s how I see it used most often.

    I’ve seen more than a couple of people practically beg for it, like they’re going to be excommunicated if they don’t get their Rep up. Does it actually mean anything outside of the personal warm fuzzy feeling of knowing that someone paid attention to you? That sounded less crappy in my head. I mean, is there any consideration for it other than personal?

    Is Rep used for anything like determining whether someone gets an infraction, or a temporary/permanent ban, is asked to be a Mod, etc?

    It plays a part in some user ranks along with post count, time on the site etc.

    But it has no input whatsoever on if you will get an infraction or consequences etc if you break the rules.

    It's a legitimate question! I'm an inquisitive person, these are the kinds of questions that plague me. I'm not sleeping well, can't focus at work, space out while driving! My mind keeps going back to, "Thanks equals Rep. Yes. But what does is mean​?!"

    I think amount of rep is equivalent to the amount of time you procrastinate on here!

    Well, to further confuse you, you can give thanks and reputation. Two different things. ;)

    Yes. I believe you can thank someone then give them negative rep if you want.

    It's supposed to be a way of saying 'thank you for that useful post' or 'I agree with you'. In addition there is a 'add to user reputation' button at the bottom of each post (I don't think this function shows up in tapatalk) where you can add a little note showing your appreciation. However with this function you can also add negative reputation which subtracts from the users reputation total. But only really mean people use it that way.

    Guess what? I was just checking out the little icons at the bottom of your post to see what you're talking about. I just learned how to do that fancy multi-quote thing all the kids are using these days!

    I can make people famous, take away their rep, quote in multiples....You all may have just created a monster!

    Everyone knows that Rep= proscrastination time X (skill/amount of smiley's used)+number of total posts.

    Hmmm, I tried to enhance your reputation, but it seems you've done something else in the recent past that impressed me and I can't give you any more at this time. Shucks even.

    Last I heard, there were up to 649 ball python morphs... But you can catch 'em all with the great ball python balls, ultra ball python balls, and the rare master ball python ball!
    To catch em all is my real test, to breed them is my cause~

    Man I still learning to use the basic Zanpakutō skills lol let alone bankai lol.
    I wonder what the total base morph count is for ball pythons. Cause With the base morphs you can create all the fancier stuff lol. ( plus you can always
    use the off spring to replace mutli snakes later on.

    lol no I just wonder ow many of the base morphs there is now. You can always use what you produce to replace single gene animals later on. ( that how I was planning on doing it over time, now i just need a huge collection and a place to keep them all lol ( then a metal plate or 3 for when the wife brains me ) I rather have pastel evolve into a killer clown if it does any form of evolving. lol
