What is Rep Power?

[carl s]

Daft question, but what is "rep power" on the left hand side of each post? I've tried to figure out a corellation but it seems to bear no relation to the number of posts etc...?

Every time somebody completes a post, they get 1 rep point.... theres a graph icon on the bottom left of every post. If you click that you can add rep to other people if you think they have posted well, or posted something helpful ect. if your rep is not the same as your post count, you have received some positive rep. (check in the user cp)

Hope this helps, (if it does, give me some positive rep, lol, by clicking the graph icon on the left of this post)

aha, I just added 100 points to your score (not that you need it by the looks of things!)

cheers for the explanation!

Good idea.

Instead of sticking this post (which is in the B6 Passat forum??) I've edited and moved this post - Rep Power - The Basics - to the Forum Guides & Help section.

Now all we have to do is make people read it
