Its a bit complicated and is modeled after pagerank, but it seems like a smart solution and a wave of the future - still, after signing on, will I ever put in the effort to “rank” well with the site? After all, they aren’t “google”. We’ll see.
Here’s some of their secret sauce:
It’s kind of like PageRank… users vote for other user’s reputation (by clicking on the scale), and it’s weighted by how “important” they are within the forum. It works like this right now:
- Everyone starts with a reputation of 10
- You can alter other people’s reputation by 1 point by default
- For every 365 days after you register, your altering power increases by 1
- For every 1,000 posts, your altering power also increases by 1
- For every 100 reputation points that other’s give you, your altering power increased by 1
- User must have at least 50 posts before they can affect other’s reputation
- You must have a reputation of 10 or higher to be able to affect others (it’s 10 by default)
- You can alter up to 10 user’s reputations per day
- You must alter different user’s reputations before you can alter the same user’s again
