The User Reputation System allows members to leave comments about one anothers' posts, which contributes to their overall 'reputation'.

User Reputation, in its simplest form, is a ranking of a user's benefit to the forum. Its basis comes from the opinions of all forum users that choose take part in it. Users gain and lose reputation based on how their posts are scored by other forum participants. Users with the ability to affect reputation, will either give or take aways points by approving or disapproving with a post's content.

To contribute to a user's reputation, simply click on the Reputation icon on the bottom left of their post (underneath the user information column).



Every user's reputation is shown in the lower portion of the user information column of every post. They are the colored bars, above shown to be green in this case.

Remember to leave feedback for posts with a purpose - DIY's, good information on your setup, etc.
