Reputation

[Laura Duke]

Okay, I have a couple of questions for someone to answer for me, because it has been stumping/bugging me for a while:

* Why are there green lights (on a distinguished road/unknown quantity) and red lights (can only hope to improve)? How do you get those lights, and if a red light, how can you make it a green light?

* On the top right of a post, there is a picture of an (I forget the name, so I'm going to call it a "justice scale") icon that when you click it, you can talk about their reputation. What does that do? Also, do you get a "reputation point" for each person who compliments a post? Is there a way that you can view who/why a person gave you a reputation point and on which post/s you received the point for?

* Also on the upper right portion of the post is a warning symbol. What is that for?

Sorry for all the questions, but you would really be helping me out if someone explained all of that to me!

Thanks,
Laura:D

1. Sorry but I have no idea what the green lights are, they have been bugging me too!!!!!!

2. the reputation bottom is there for like if you posted something good or bad, someone else could come along and hit the botton and say that you had a good or bad reputation for wrighting good or bad posts.

3. the warning sign, is also for if someone posted something bad, you can hit that botton, and the post will be reported.

I hope that I have been of SOME help!:D

[Laura Duke]

Hi DixieRoss,

Thanks for your help. And yes, you did answer some of my questions! You're great!

But, there are still some that I'm not sure of. So, if someone comes along, would you be kind enough to answer the rest of them?

Thanks. And all of you-have a wonderful weekend!
Laura Duke:p

You can read about the reputation function in our FAQ

http://www.hazzardnet.com/forums/faq.php?faq=vb3_user_profile#faq_vb3_reputation

The little justice scale is what you click to add or detract someone's reputation. The FAQ should answer your first set of questions about all of that.

The warning symbol is to report a specific post that you think is inappropriate or violates rules and regs of the board. It would alert moderators and admins to the post and we would then do whatever is necessary about the post, if it is infact, an inappropriate post.

MaryAnne,

Thanks for getting back to me. I did look at the forum about "Reputation" Thanks, it did answer some of my questions. The only part that I couldn't get was how to view what people wrote about as far as a reputation on your posts, and which posts they commented on. Do you think you could help me out with that?

Thanks,
Laura:lol:

I believe, when you go and click on User CP to look at and make changes to your profile, you should see a box on the right that says "Latest Reputation Received." To make sure something shows up I went and gave you an positive reputation on a post in this thread so you should see that I gave you a good rep. I didn't put a comment but people can put comments when they approve or disapprove of a post. :)

[RogerDuke]

MaryAnne, you just gave Laura a positive reputation?!?
Aren't you hurting your good reputation by fibbing like that?
(Just kidding Laura.....khee, khee!!)

[Meadowmufn]

MaryAnne's opinion is her own and in no way represents the official position of HazzardNet. Khee!

[Garrett Duke]

I'm glad someone asked the question...I have always wondered what the squares meant and why they are there. Well...now I know. LOL.

[Meadowmufn]

And Brian will "be famous soon enough". Not sure how THAT happened. Did someone give him positive feedback? Where's that ban button. LOL. :lol:

[LoriDavenport]

Now I have a question! LOL When someone posts a comment about you in the latest reputation recieved thing, is there anyway to see who gave it to you? Or is that like an anonymous type thing?

[Brian Coltrane]

And Brian will "be famous soon enough". Not sure how THAT happened. Did someone give him positive feedback? Where's that ban button. LOL. :lol:

Ha ha ha. Hey, I was on hiatus ( Ok, I was AWOL) for a few months, and I still have highest number of posts. So what's it take to actually be famous around here?

Maybe I don't want an answer to that, seeing some of our current topics. Nevahmind!

Is that why it's been so quiet around.

Hey, Lori "is on a distinguished road." Just as long as she remembers who put her on that road. KHEE! :D

[LoriDavenport]

Hey, Lori "is on a distinguished road." Just as long as she remembers who put her on that road. KHEE! :D

ROFL MaryAnne, I don't think I could forget...and If I did, I'm quite positive, that same person would be there to give me a lil' reminder! And I'm sorry, but I don't wanna see that "distinguished road" from behind iron bars...

[B.L. Davenport]

*laughs* Lori there's very little possibility that you WON'T see it from behind bars. I on the other hand am on no road at all so could go anywhere the wind blows me.

[MaryAnne]

Now I have a question! LOL When someone posts a comment about you in the latest reputation recieved thing, is there anyway to see who gave it to you? Or is that like an anonymous type thing?

Nope, you should see who gave you the comment if they put a comment. Otherwise, if they just gave a positive or negative rep on a post then you would just see that they gave the positive or negative.

Of course, I should check that myself by logging in under my Jack id, which is a non-moderator/admin ID so I knows I'm tellin' the truth. Hopefully. ROFL. Of course, I'll have to give the Lieutenant a positive or negative rep thing first to check it. (Brian - no comment from you! ROFL)

[LoriDavenport]

Welp dearest cousin, you keep on eatin' cheescake the way ya do and that wind won't be blowin ya far... *grins*


Hmm, Dunno who it was, it's not showin' me who left me the comment or nothin', ah oh well, I ain't worryin' with it none.

[B.L. Davenport]

Awww thanks Lori! :D Knowing that...it don't matter what that light means...at least I know I have you as a friend. :)

[DaisyMaeDuke]

[LoriDavenport]

*looks at Lori* I'm offended...are you offended?

*nods*

I'm offended.

[B.L. Davenport]

*smirks*

[DaisyMaeDuke]

You wanna hold her Lori while I punch or I hold her you punch?

[LoriDavenport]

*taps chin thinking*

I hold her, you punch...

[JESSI DUKE]

Ok is that really fair 2 on 1? Need some help B.L.?

[MaryAnne]

Ok, how much cheesecake do I have to buy to get y'all to stop fightin'? :)

[LoriDavenport]

Now MaryAnne's tryin' to bribe us with cheesecake! LOL

[B.L. Davenport]

*looks at Daisy and Lori then at Jessi nodding*

I'd 'preciate the help Jessi I can hold my own against one of 'em but two against one just aint good odds.


I dunno Maryanne but if it'll keep these two from bashin in my brains I'll help ya buy it!

*starting to look a little nervous*

[DaisyMaeDuke]

I'm not really hungry...*grins mischieveously*

[Garrett Duke]

Oh my, where's all this violence coming from? Now what would Uncle Jesse say if he saw y'all fighting? I think we should all take the cheesecake and settle on being friends.:D

[Julieduke]

Oh my, where's all this violence coming from? Now what would Uncle Jesse say if he saw y'all fighting? I think we should all take the cheesecake and settle on being friends.:D
Well at work today there was a Dui arrest right in the parking lot.

[LoriDavenport]

Oh my, where's all this violence coming from? Now what would Uncle Jesse say if he saw y'all fighting? I think we should all take the cheesecake and settle on being friends.:D

And this coming from somebody who's as violent as we are?! *grins*

[B.L. Davenport]

Eating Cheesecake is fine with me I'm trying to be peaceful

*still watching Daisy and Lori*

[Garrett Duke]

Hmmm. . .good point, Lori. Though Jesse has now come accustomed to my violence and fighting and has long ago gave up on me. He knows no matter what he says, nothing's gonna put a stop to me. You, B.L. and Daisy on the other hand, he may be surprised to see it coming from. :D

[LoriDavenport]

From Daisy? Oh yes definently... from me or B.L? Nahhh...

[Julieduke]

From Daisy? Oh yes definently... from me or B.L? Nahhh...
Howdy, listen please calm down it's not that bad now.

[B.L. Davenport]

From Daisy? Oh yes definently... from me or B.L? Nahhh...


I don't even think he'd be surprised to see it from Daisy she has been known to flip people over her shoulder and mud wrestle. *chuckles*

[Julieduke]

Okay, I would never do that but you know I'm the cute one.

[Garrett Duke]

OK then...which one of us isn't violent then?

[LoriDavenport]

I don't think there's a peaceful one in the lot of us! LOL

[B.L. Davenport]

Life would be boring if we were peaceful

[Garrett Duke]

Oh how very true...

[kit]

I really don't understand this. How can someone has only posted one time have a green light and someone who has over 2000 post is still at blue.
That doesn't seem right to me or fair. You would thing that it would be the other way around.

[LizzyJackson-Davenport]

It may be because you start out good but then people start to not like the things you say so your rep goes down.

[Laura Duke]

kit,

That's a great question. And, I can understand how you would think that to be unfair. Now, I hope that someone will kindly correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm thinking that the reason that some people have grey lights is because nobody commented on posts that they wrote on. Now, if someone has a post that they like, they can add to their reputation, and I believe that turns the lights green. Am I correct on that everybody? Hopefully that makes some sense, kit. If not, somebody else might be better at handling this question.

Thanks,
Laura Duke:)

By the way, how did this go from a post on reputation to a post about cheese cake? :lol: What is with everything lately about cheese cake? :wink:

[LoriDavenport]

kit,

Laura...this is Hazzardnet...'nough said! And for those who are newcomers..

Well, we tend to do things a bit... "different" here.

[B.L. Davenport]

Well Laura if you will read the roll call thread under moderator meetin' minutes you will understand where the cheesecake came from to begin with. Stick around long enough and you'll find out that ANYTHING is possible around here heh.



P.S. Who wants icecream with their cheesecake? I've got chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry but I can get whatever flavor you want if I don't have it already.

B.L.

[LoriDavenport]

Chocolate for me B! *grins*

[The_Dukes_Generl_Lee01]

Good thing i'm a pretty familiar with forums and stuff since I have one and the green circle or dot that you have is grey when your offline and green when you are online! YEEHAW!

[Julieduke]

I take Vanilla here.

[JESSI DUKE]

I'll take all three.

[LizzyJackson-Davenport]

I'd love some chocolate and vanilla mixed cause I can't have any of the delicious cheese cake that's be passed around.

Thank-you Laura, for your explanation...I have always wondered how and why you got a green square instead of the gray one that I remain stuck with. That makes sense to me. ;)
