Hi Blueberry...Did you get a rep point or rep power??
Rep power is given by the mods, (and/or is "earned" by how many posts you have posted---???---never truly understood why that is?) Rep power is seen by our nicks with our posts.
Rep points are given to you by others because of their opinions on your posts and can be seen in your contol panel. It will show a green or grey or red square beside a listed thread name in which you posted what they are giving (or taking) rep points to (or from) you for. A green square means they are positive points (added to your total). A red square means they are negative pioints (subtracted from your total) And I THINK a grey square means the person who wanted to rep you didn't have any earned or given rep power to give to you (or take from you)
There is also a "comment" area where the person can leave an encouraging word or a "high five" so to speak, beside the given points.....and identify themselves if they dare..Hahhaha JK!!! (kinda)
Hope this helps!
Oh! And your rep power is how many points you have that you can give or take from someone......and the way you do it is at the top of each person's posts there is a ""REP"" button you push and it is pretty easy to figure out from there!
