Reputation

What are reputation points and how do they differ from total posts and membership level?

500 posts make you a VIP, for example. Likes move you up levels.

I knew about the posts but not the reputation points. 

I am still not sure on the level points

When you have 500 posts you'll be a VIP. When you have 500 likes you will be level 5. @Jools

@ElectroNymph  thank you very much for the explanation. 

The irony being that I like a lot of posts on here but only 7 likes allowed. I actually like this too as it makes you really think about what really hits you and resonates with you. I've never been one to court friends or try to be popular but I started to be liked, while a young kid at school, because I hated bullies and sorted a fair few out in my time. 

Forums also have their bullies, liars, attention seekers and out & out blaggers ( ppl who will befriend you and be overly attentive so as to approach you for favours)  I've spotted a couple already but it's not my job to flag them or pull them on it though I've had to really hold back from typing or sending a PM. 

Anyway, I digress. Thanks again. It makes sense though I bet we ALL want to know what's behind door number 500

At VIP? Not a lot, lol. Still, it looks good on your profile.

I think it's 1000 posts for "Grand Poobah" - which is cool, but sounds funny. ?

I used to have 7 likes too. Got 10 when I reached VIP. It is confusing at times, I must admit!

Oh, and yeah, I have been bullied a lot, both in real life and online. I still get nightmare's about high school.

You just have to prove them wrong, and ignore, or outwit them. (Usually not difficult!)

Thanks for explaining. Now I see that when I get a like the reputation points go up. It was a little confusing at first.

Oh wow now this is helpful I didn't know this information. Thank you @ElectroNymph.  Yikes 500 likes I hope I can acquire that many in my lifetime!! Again helpful info from another member, had no idea about the 500 likes!

Some people do make it obvious. Oh the irony.
