Howdy folks. Just a quick note to see what the green boxes underneath the name info on the left mean? And how do you get more of them? and do I want more of them? haha. I noticed my "rep power" is 2 but i only have one green square.

Anywho, it's friday at work = lazy me.

You get more "rep" power by making awesome posts that someone takes notice of and someone clicks on the silver scales under your avatar to let you know you made a useful post.:thumbup:

OK - so while we're at it: apparently the BAR and the number are not reflective of one another. Is that based upon how much time we spend at the bar? Mine would be like 1 square per 5 years. . . Just curious. . .

I don't think "thanks" affect that at all, but I could be wrong. However, I believe who sends you "rep" largely determines how much weight it carries. For instance, if someone new with no rep sends you a rep, it doesn't do much. If someone who has been here a long time will tons of rep sends you a rep, it may increase your rep power significantly. Does that make sense?

I'm not sure the bar section of the forum has anything to do with the bar of green squares. That would be kind of fun though.
