What’s the bar under each member’s screen name for?

[Chuck E Ducky]

Just curious what that is all about. Sometimes I have bars sometimes I don’t.

[DavidBoren]

I have been curious about this, as well.

[Carp]

It's a BS meter! 😋

Try this....Reputation

Mines far too low, then

Hardness scale

[SignOfZeta]

I assume it increased in redness as the post count increments. More importantly, what is the “comment” feature for and can’t it be switched off?

[Flounder]

It is to leave comments, I kind of like it myself.

It's just a reputation meter that's about as useful as the Like button.

[Axel]

Every profile has a reputation score from 0-999. I don't know exactly where the points come from but I think it's a combination of posts and likes. Each bar is 50 points, but for some reason they only light up in pairs.

[bored383]

let's see how many I have

[bored383]

None - Proper!

You should know isn’t that how you get that how you get in the Mod Squad.

[Nish]

"Reputation"

Details are hazy on how that's implemented. Sounds like it's strictly through the "Like" button with MCBs configuration. So, only the carrot and no stick. I'll speculate that it's not related to post count (e.g. Nish @ >100M posts).

The "stick" is that mods can take away points for infractions

I'm not saying that Nish's post count was manipulated, but I speculate that if post count is involved, administratively changing that count may not trigger a reputation score recalculation

[Nish]

I'm not sure I like what you are implying here!

[DavidBoren]

I'm between "really nice" and "glorious beacon of light"... sounds like the friend zone. Drats.

[Chuck E Ducky]

“User has a little shameless behaviour in the past“ Well it’s not wrong lol

[bored383]

so its like a CCP social credit system then?
