FlightControl Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 How is the reputation calculated that is on your user? I received some reputation mails? And the reputation is growing, but slowly. More slowly than how I receive reputations etc. Any idea? [TABLE][sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]| Join MOOSE community on: DISCORD :thumbup: Website of the MOOSE LUA Framework. MOOSE framework Downloads.

spiddx Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) Look at this thread: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=172950 All the answers should be in the first few pages. :) Long story short: It all depends on the rep power of the one who gives the rep. If I +rep you, you get 4(!) more points. If you +rep someone, this person gets 11 more points. If Wags reps someone, he gets like ~5000 points. Unless it's negative rep - then you're pretty much f'ed! ;) Edited January 17, 2017 by spiddx Specs: i9 10900K @ 5.1 GHz, EVGA GTX 1080Ti, MSI Z490 MEG Godlike, 32GB DDR4 @ 3600, Win 10, Samsung S34E790C, Vive, TIR5, 10cm extended Warthog on WarBRD, Crosswinds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Reputation Power" does not translate directly to those reputation points. It is some sort of factor < 1.0 (Lol, otherwise I would run around in deep red now - after Wags blessed me with his attention once, back in 2016. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiddx Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Oh, thanks for correcting me about it being a factor. That system with all its rules and exceptions could use its own 400pg DCS manual. :book: (and I might have exaggerated a little bit up there. His current rep is actually 211, so a one time 'attention' shouldn't hurt you too much - apart from the soul crushing experience itself of course ;) ) Specs: i9 10900K @ 5.1 GHz, EVGA GTX 1080Ti, MSI Z490 MEG Godlike, 32GB DDR4 @ 3600, Win 10, Samsung S34E790C, Vive, TIR5, 10cm extended Warthog on WarBRD, Crosswinds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimmerdylan Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 LOL....I have no clue whatsoever how any of it works. I do know that I was ousted from these forums permanently a couple of years ago. When I was Banned, I had a negative 8 rep. Yes....negative 8. That negative 8 came with me when I was graciously taken back. Over the past 18 months or so, it's gone from that to what I have now. Not sure who did it or why, but I'm glad I made my peace with the forums and myself. Feels much better and I enjoy being part of this community. I know it all has to do with people giving you "reps" (as was stated in this thread already). Unfortunately, I don't know how it is done or I would have given them myself at one time or another. And I would also thank those who gave them to me to help me get from a negative 8 to a positive 10. So if any of you feel like you are in the big red dog house.....Don't fret too much. You can get out of it. You just have to exercise common courtesy, common sense, and realize that it's just a forum, it's all just opinions, and we're all here doing our best. Even if some of our best doesn't look the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterH Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 If you receive rep from new members with low reputation power, I think they don't add to your overall "score". In user control panel where the recent reputation actions on your account are listed, these will have a gray box, whereas the ones that provide an increase are green, and downvotes are red. Maybe that's the reason with not increasing rep.

You are confusing "reputation power" and "reputation point(s)" -the reputation power, everyone can see it on the forums, with the little green(or red) boxes -the reputation point(s), (AFAIK) only visible on your User CP page, in the upper right of the reputation window Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimmerdylan Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I don't get the relationship between the reputation and the green boxes. Some people have high numbers but few boxes, and some folks have several boxes and low numbers. It's a mystery to me. I tend to agree though that it's not worth much merit. Thanks grunf for showing me how to give rep! I appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yurgon Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I can't find the previous explanations right now, but off the top of my head: Every member gets one point of reputation power per year of membership. Every 500 posts award one point of reputation power. Every 300 reputation points (i.e. the reputation received from other members) award one point of reputation power, or subtract in case of negative points. There's also a formula for calculating the green or red squares based on either reputation power or points, but I don't remember this one. Older members sometimes have a reputation power of 0 and show a single grey square, even though they've been active for years. Giving them +rep sometimes makes their reputation power jump from 0 to 8, 9 or 10; it seems like maybe a certain amount of reputation points is needed to trigger the correct calculation. Calculating reputation power used to work differently until a couple of years ago, which is why some of the older members have very high values.

cichlidfan Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) There's also a formula for calculating the green or red squares based on either reputation power or points, but I don't remember this one. This changed today to a different formula. The formula, as it stood, six months ago. It is calculated from rep points. Might have slightly changed with update. This is the current formula: 1 dark green bar for every 500 points, max 5 dark green bars, bright green bar take 1000 points Maximum 15 bars. EDIT: Based on the bars, the new formula makes no sense.

sobek Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Community members can give you positive or negative reputation based on their reception of your posts. The more positive rep you have, the more points you give or deduce when you pos/neg rep somebody. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
