Reputation Mistake

[Apollonia]

Hi, I was wondering if some kindly mod with a bit of time on their hands could fix this teeny little issue that means a lot to me...

My friend wanted to give me positive rep on a post in my grow log, but the default is negative and well... he accidentally negged me.

I know this is not earth shattering, but can it be fixed? I really respect this poster & I'd hate to have a record of him giving me the thumbs down especially because it's in error & not a true reflection of the reputation system.

Here's a link to a post he made about the mistaken reputation: link

And here's my user CP that shows his positive comment but a red negative color block: link

If that doesn't suffice, I'm sure my buddy will back me up.

Thank you - I really hope this can be fixed.

The mods may or may not fix this for you, seeing that they generally stay pretty busy around here, but just for future reference this sort of thing happens rather frequently. I don't think it affects your reputation, just lets you know if someone is genuinely pissed at you (which obviously isn't the case here). Best to just grin and bear it, and appreciate the gesture. Get more good reps and the bad one will eventually slip into oblivion. :jointsmile:

Sorry again, Apollonia.

M.P.

wooooo, i just put you into a spectacular aura with that last one. :smokin: try to stay there for a while that one is pretty cool. :stoned:

For me, even before I was a mod the default setting was positive and not negative so I don't know about that.

There's no way to fix it and besides the little green dots (or red if you are a true troll) the comments are private so if it wasn't for this post you and the repper would have been the only ones to know.

Thanks fellas, I know it was a trifling matter, that's why I couched it in those terms - no harm in asking right? And Merry! No worries! It's just me being over-picky, I'd have never posted if I thought it'd make you feel bad at all - it isn't a big deal... Mr. Clandestine & Boaz have found the cure! :thumbsup:

Special thanks to Mr. Clandestine & Boaz - you guys...:1baa: (and what a sensible solution)

[boaz]

Your reputation on this post is Even.
Comments on this Post You're a sweetheart - and what an elegant solution

okay, mods, now I am confused, I don't think I've ever seen "Even" rep points. It is kind of a greyish color. hmmm. :stoned: and yeah, my default is positive rep ("approve comments"), too, not sure why yours wouldn't too.

anyways, welcome to can com.

okay I just figured it out your still new so your rep points are neutral for now. way too much time thinking about this. :stoned:

I got an "even" rep once. It was from a "sorta" noob, so maybe there's a time factor or post or rep count that influences when a member's reps really start having power.

Senior members have more rep power, that's for sure...

[boaz]

^ yeah i think so. i kinda like being right where we are right now. it took sooo long to get past just being nice.

[DreadedHermie]

Boaz, your rep moved me from 1313 to 1343.

Exits, singing, "I -- don't know how to --love -- Him...." :stoned:
