    Some newbies (sometimes experienced users too) - rep me while they want to +rep me(according to their comments):rolleyes:.Look at screen shot(removed +reps) :

    It's just like pain in the neck to help people and getting - rep. I got many -reps before for just helping others :(.I've never got - reps really for bad posts.Do you experience this problem too? :confused:

    it is not negative rep.As they are newbies thats why you are getting grey reputation.it does not mean positive or negative.It means neutral.

    These are either reps from new members or reps on forums that do not support greens/reds... like the General Chat forum...lol

    These are not -tive rep.
    These are grey reputation which won't cause any difference in your reputation points.

    Anyways, i gave you a +rep to make you happy, lol!

    hahah, sorry i can't help about my rep because i gave rep to you on GC section and you will receive GREY for it as your post is on GC section.
    Who says that DP doesn't have any -Rep criteria, lol.Obviously, DP has -rep, if some one gives you -rep, you will receive it, lol!

    Anyways, good posts all over the forum will help you earn more +rep, so move on :)

    I don't know... I have 5 reps for two posts here in GC and one of them is green the rest are gray. I don't understand why one of them would be green? Maybe because the user who gave me the rep had a high post count?

    The user from whom you received GREEN rep in GC must be a well reputed member along with a high post count. :)

    You gotta be kidding me! -5 points for saying thanks to OP and repping him?. It's not important to me anymore until there is no age requirement on DP. :|

    Try to not talk about green/red reputation here on DP

    you will be amazed how many people will hunt you ...

    they just saw that you care of reputation ,and they will make `u feel sick , because they know it's hurt...

    Thanks for the advice. I don't really care about getting rep here because I like to learn and I read much more than I post. you can find out from my joining date and post count. I was thinking I'm getting - rep while I help people and I didn't knew they are neutral.
    Thanks

    Do n't worry about reps and also Do n't expect one to rep you if you have helped them in anyway as it's not complusory
