I thought it meant reputation, but not sure why everybody only has one. If you click on that star icon below someone's comment you can 'rep' them i think?
No idea either would be nice to know how to work all these little gadgets maybe they should Write an instruction manual
Weirdly, when I clicked on my own star, it said I have ten points, despite not having any on the post.
theres a prior discussuion here: http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/32146-What-does-it-mean-quot-on-a-distinguished-road-quot
I've just gone to rep power 1. I wonder if it's to do with the number of replies - I just got over 50.
at the end of a post to the right of where it days Blog this Post there is a six pointed star and if you click that it give you the chance to approve or disappriove of a post. i assume these change the rep power of the pioster. the list of values on the other thread is not the exact one for on here since with 0 or 1 your on a distiunguished road. i thouhgt there was a nother thread or maybe some of the posts in that other thread got deleted because there was one from the site owner who said he'd just turned it on to see what he did. his rep power was 10 but i don't know where that post has gone.
ok it looks like every approval or disapproval adds or takes away one rep point and the rep power might be a tenth of your rep points. or somthing.
