How to increase my reputation

Sounds silly, but how is reputation increased and what is it really used for in this forum?

 

A reputation is used when a useful post, or a post which helps you, is posted. It is a simple system to know who is the most resourceful people on the forum.

Hi there,

From what I understand (correct me if I wrong), you can increase your reputation by posted a useful post and by helping to solve forum member problem. If your reputation increase at the same time your credibility also increase.

cheers

 

To be honest, not unless you have over 5 lil green things.

The reputation green boxes are not always handed out just for being helpful though that's the best way to get them. Sometimes they are given for being funny or being 'wacko'. Credibility goes along with people getting to know you but i-trader points were intended more for the purpose of letting people know you were trustworthy.

Unfortunately the i-trader points went a bit skew-wiff thanks to folk asking for them for free stuff and what not.

 

Yep.. Also should add that in the general forum any rep you take or give doesnt affect your reputation. - It comes up as "grey" rep.

 

Just make useful contributions, be polite and friendly, don't argue and if anyone needs help try and help them.

 

Make good posts, and don't do nothing stupid and rep will come. But Itrader is much more important then rep..

 

*Yawn*
