What are the little green bars for?

I've just noticed little green blobs next to peoples screen names on threads, it seems that Ewans is bigger than everyone elses and when i roll my mouse over it, it says, "Ewan is a splendid one to behold " but everyone else's just says, "<name> is on a distinguished road" Whats going on?

I guess your mouse decided to tell you the truth. 😊 well to be honest i don't have a mouse but i'll try it 2morrow

Yeah it's weird. It doesn't seem to correlate on the post count either. No matter if there is 10 or 2000 it says the same. And I can't find a place to edit it anywhere. Interesting... 😊

i think the only people who can really answer these questions are rafe or ewan so lets hope one of them passes by this thread

This is part of the reputation system (I swicthed it on when the forum was upgraded). Basically it enables you to give reputation to a users when they post something useful. You don't get extra blobs but rather more repuatation points (and the reputation title changes).

I'd have to look up the docs to tell you more though.

Well for raising the subject, i think everyone should click on mine, if you click on mine ill click on yours lol.

I have and in the box i put, "You are a splendid one to behold" 😃 But theres no change as far as i can see.

ok then somebody click on mine LOL

It has worked, on my User cp there was a message saying, latest reputation, and information about which post ect, my rating is now 12 so i guess 2 people have clicked it,

If you want people to click yours, as Rafe said, post something useful.

Who has time to post anything useful when we are busy clicking reputation points to each other :tongue:

Does each click bring 6 points? Or does Cuddlers mean that he has clicked 10 times himself and then there are 2 others who have clicked him? 😃

No , i think everyone starts with 10 points, because i have seen other forums with this software where newcomers have 10 points.
