"Even" Reputation?

[dutch.lover]

Hey there mods, I have a question for you (or anyone else with the answer to this). My user CP says that I have an "even" reputation for two different posts that i made on two different threads. If I got an even reputation for somehting, i am assuming that means that i got a negative response for that post and a positive one. so i guess my question is- if two different people rated my post, one positive and one negative, how come my user CP only has one member's name listed as the 'rater'? also... (this is the bigger issue) for the posts in which i received 'even' rep for, they don't really seem to have been worth a rep at all. what i mean is, one of my posts was completely unmeaningful- it would surprise me if anyone had actually taken the time to rate it. the other post was 100% positive, i said something like "good luck with everything, let me know how it goes." so, why would anyone have rated it negatively?

i think there might be an error with the rep system cause this just doesn't seem to be adding up to me. clarification?

When someone with negative reps gives someone with a positive reps its becomes a push...

if you are hi in reps and someone hi gives you reps,,, you get more than if you were low and he was still the same,,,hi... your status counts when receiving points...

Ok,,,

Jenny has a red dot and she has -45 reputation...

Joe has 4 green dots and he has +325 reputation...

Jenny gives Joe a negative reputation...

Jenny's negative means shit "cause Jenny is a loser" and has no right to slay a +325 member so Joe being an upstanding gentleman in the community trumps Jenny therefore creating a push...

at least this is my assessment as this has happen to me...

see the little scales next to the post number in the top right corner of each post.

Click on it, it'll ask if you want to give positive or negitive.

that makes sense, and i have noticed that people with higher rep points have a higher influence when they give/take others rep points. HOWEVER, like i said, the posts that have an even rep are either positive or neutral. So I guess there is either a mistake with the rep system or there are a couple little shits giving me negative rep points for no reason

well a no pointer can not give you either good or bad,,,they dont count... so a no pointer either way is no points...

look at the name of the peeps in your CP and then look at their status,,,I bet there all no pointers,,,but look fast cause if someone like my hits them good they will be green again in a flash...
