what is the formula for seeing your rep power increase??

I don't think any of us know the actual formula, but I do know it represents 3 things;

- Amount of time as an active member.
- Number of posts.
- Rep points.

It seems things are much more weighted to rep points than the other two items.

I think the mods do it. I don't know if they follow some sort of guidelines that decides if rep increases, or if they increase it for you because they like you or what not.

I don't think so the poster above you has the same amount of bars as I do and his rep power is three and mine is 7.

I have noticed that some people start posting with 5 rep power and soem start with 1 (like me). That would explain the difference.

Don't know. There could be just so many reasons. I suspect it has to do with the size of my rep power.

If this is true, then why do I always have to beg for a happy ending?

First, you have to be a bad ***. I'm not talking about just your run of the mill bad *** either, I'm saying Tom Selleck mixed with Brad Pitt from Troy -- with a little bit of Anthony Robbins mixed in for good measure. Then, you have to be hung like an elephant. As you can see by my enormous rep power, I clearly fit the mold.

Hu?

Are you saying that some posters start with a rep power of five on their first post ever?

Me personally I started at 1 then went back to 0 and back to one later on.
 
Don't worry guys, I got a text from VinylBitch about a week ago saying that he was "considering coming back to the board". Of course he killed off his mule. We'll have BR back before you know it.

I can vouch. He let me lift it once. Took two hands, but I was able.

I know a few of the mods really like me, but they're just too embarrassed to show it. Otherwise I'd be at 25 by now.

IMO it is way to heavily weighted for # of posts and time on the board. Guys with less bars than others have more rep power because they post all of the time. I would make rep points recieved far and away the most heavily weighted. I don't think that time on the board or # of posts should carry much power. Too me if you make posts people like that should hold far more weight for your rep power.

I think you're right and I think it does. I believe it's weighted to rep points .. tell me how many rep points you've got and I'll plug it in.
 
C'mon guys.

For every 130 number of days, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
For every 2500 number of posts, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
For every 300 points of reputation, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
