Reputation Power
Rep power is the amount of points that you can take or give to someone's reputation. Your rep power increases by 1 point for every:
- 4000 posts
- 400 reputation points
- 365 days (1 year) registered on the forum

i just got told it's 2500 posts. idk if it is but if it is then yh update.

What are those green blocks under my profile information?
Those blocks show the amount of reputation you have. There are 4 different coloured reputation blocked.
This is a dark green reputation block, you get these the first 500 reputation points.
This is a light green reputation, you get these for every 500 reputation points after you past 500 reputation points.

i think that needs clearing up. makes it sound like you need 500 points for each one after your original 500 but you only need 100. i know it says it in the rep bit but it's a bit ambiguous. plus, it doesn't even make sense. the first bit explaining for dark green rep block needs a for in "you get these FOR the first 500 points"

I reckon he should just release it unfinished because the re-written almost complete rewrite isn't helping anyone offline!

There isn't really any point publishing it unfinished as there will still be areas which are not up to date so Oli might as well leave it until it is complete, which I am guessing will be soon. If people do have questions in the mean time then they've only got to ask. :]

confuses all users though. most things are in-date and if these updates are going to take a while then little things like this need to be changed rly.

Updates won't take a while, the new FAQ will be published before I go to University. We are going all-out with our New FAQ though, I have written it raw, and then James is coding it to make it look fantastic rather than the wall of text we have at the moment and then I am going to fine-tune it to ensure it has absolutely everything on it.

Fabulous. Still think you should at least change the 4000 posts reputation because it will take seconds and it's probably the most sought after thing. When you going to uni?

Saturday 18th, it'll be done way before then 'cause I've go a lot of things to do. The Rep Section on the new FAQ is quite different to the one we've got now, but yes I'll change that 4000 posts thing now but obviously I'm avoiding anymore substantial changes until I can launch the new FAQ.

substantial lmao
