Your rep power is 20. When I was new, I always repped people with high rep power in the hope they would rep me back.

I dnt get that, sadly. :( Maybe when i get 21 (not far off tbh).

Infact, does anybody here give rep to new members? I know I try to +rep every new member posting that I see.

Couldn't that be something moderators or other departments could tackle?

Already do :P But it's one thing staff +repping someone, another a member +repping someone in the sense that you can easily tell if staff have been told to do it :P

I suppose that's true, although if people had more rep power perhaps they'd be inclined to use it more. One or two rep power isn't what I'd call a thrill :P

We managed it so therefore i'm sure new users can get a higher rep power by posting more good posts. Atleast forum staff give rep to new users now, before that didn't happen.

I totally agree with this.

It's only rep, you must obviously be getting a lot of negative rep or else you wouldnt be moaning.

if somebody does something wrong why shouldnt users be given the chance to reduce their reputation
