It goes by 200 point increments I think..

1 Point for signing up.

1 For making 500 posts, and the other for.. something..

You have more rep power than I woulda though, not less...

**FallingBullets** · 07-05-2008

your rep power is different to the ammount of rep you have, you gain rep power from your postcount, length of time you have been a member and other factors

then when someone reps you your rep goes up by their rep power number

thats why you have 62 points

**AJe** · 07-05-2008

Rep power is worked out by this calculation:

1 + (Post count/600) + (Days on the forum/50) + (Rep points/200)

**Carl** · 07-05-2008

Wow very complicated forumla there AJe

**AJe** · 07-05-2008

Its actually more complicated than that because of rounding but it wasn't really necessary for the explanation

**ocmwpsycho-93** · 07-05-2008

thanks i never realised it worked like that how ignorant of me

**marronthered** · 07-05-2008

Will the feature to have a custom user title ever be added to forum for ALL members to use?

**MrFenwick** · 07-05-2008

They need to let Mods have the ability to save things in a user profile in the ModCP. :P

For free no, but after you've collected 15000 SP's, so can you PM AJe, and get the one you want... Some subscribers got it here for free, when the Super moderators had the ability to change their usertitles, but now must the subscribers even collect those 15000 SP's to get it, which sucks for me, because I do only have 6000 SP's

**Jaeger** · 07-05-2008

So, even though I'm now a subscriber, I don't get a custom user title? That sucks...

**carocat** · 07-05-2008

You're a subscriber? Your colour hasn't changed?

Yeah I'm asking myself the same question. I think he means he'll be a subscriber soon or something like that.

**AJe** · 07-05-2008

No, he's not. The subscriber bar is part of his avatar. I've Pm'ed him.

Wow

At first I thought, "no way!", but I looked at it in photoshop and

**MrFenwick** · 07-05-2008

Show off.

Sneaky, very sneaky, Jaeger..

**Jaeger** · 07-06-2008

Hehe, damn, you caught me out.

I was just living out the dream of being a subscriber. I'm never gonna be able to pay for one, so I pretended to be one. I didn't know it was against the rules though. Me sorry, you forgive me?

Why is 20 $ too much for you? Or is Paypal the problem mate ?
