JillyBeanz Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) Have you noticed, that when you have posted on a thread there is a little "green thing" that appears between what you are "flock member" etc and your avatar picture. If you hover over the dot it says "JillyBeanz is on a distinguished road" - What's that mean then! Clearly I am distinguished - but why the advertisement!!!! Answers on a postcard.......! ooh - I've just noticed there's different ones! Pearlyn for example says "Pearllyn will be famous soon enough"!!! Please someone explain this to me!!!!

Joolesgreyuk Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 LOL, it seems I'm on a distinguished road too Jill! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillyBeanz Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Ooh! We seem to have a "reputation" button too (that little star thingy)! I'm like the forum detective - give me the sheriff's badge now!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Okay...... Jeez Jill, you don't miss a thing...do you???? Here's the explanation: I will post an announcement when I have this feature adjusted properly and up and running....however..... .JILL can't seem to wait!! It is a reputation bar......Every member gets one green bar, after xx amount of posts, or after another member clicks on the reputation icon on the bottom left of your post, you have the option to approve or dissaprove and leave a comment. Eventually, the comments can be viewed on your profile page. Your reputation will go up, it's kind of like karma. A better explanation is coming here soon. If you look at Pearlyn's post, you will see that she has 2 green bars, that's because I have been testing my settings and adjustments on her profile. As I get everything working properly, I will post a tutorial on how the system works in it's entirety. It takes many reputation clicks to add to the green bar. There is a limitation, you will see that as you go. SO...PLEASE BE PATIENT, I HAVE RUN INTO SOME PROBLEMS AND AM TRYING TO TROUBLESHOOT THEM IN BETWEEN MY REAL JOB... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvparrots Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Jill, I call it nosey!!!! I noticed the green lights also but have been waiting patiently for an explanation unlike some people (Jill). I also like the green light after the sign in names. Green light means that person is on line. Great new features!!!!! This is going to be so much fun!!!

There's a saying round these parts "shy bairns get nowt". This means "shy children get nothing". I choose to education myself further daily........!!!

JillyBeanz Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 I've been wondering what the green thingy is too, I don't miss a trick either & was wondering is it the reputation?...................seems I was right. Oooo I like my two green thingies please don't take my thingies away!!! Here's the explanation from Talon for you! REPUTATION/KARMA I am sorry to report that there is no option for a Karma feature as we previously had in the old forum. But I am very excited to report that we now have an equivalent feature. It is a reputation bar......every member automatically has one green bar just for joining. It will appear under their member name when you make a post. Other members may click the reputation icon (the little star symbol) on your post and 'Approve or Disapprove". They may also make a comment regarding your post if they like. ** Please note: ADDING TO ANOTHER'S REPUTATION IS AN OPTION. As your reputation goes up, you will see more and more bars under your name. Each click will add points up, and after a certain number of points, you will earn another green bar. (It's like an increase in karma) The number of points depends on your post count, reputation power that you earn, and days in membership since the new forum. If you hold your curser over the green bar, you will see a status that has been pre-determined based on your rep points. To see your reputation comments and your point total, click on YOUR settings tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
