There's a thank system available i know of.. maybe that might work?
Isn't rep invisible? How do you know this?

I gave a PQ point to someone who was flaming someone else. BUT even though he was being a bit rude he was straight to the point and helpful in that he let the newcomer know theres just some things you shouldnt say in a forum.
Anyway, do the grey rep bar even amount to anything?
nope :)
rep doesn't get around enough.
If you think hes being helpful to the OP then thats good, thats what the system is there for. Theres no need for someone to be rude, theres a difference between being rude and being constructive about it. Grey or Red box won't give out points. You need to have points yourself before you can give out points.
I see.
So if i had 10 grey rep points it wouldnt do jack towards my -3 red block?
Yep, won't do nothing. As said you need points to give out points. So you need to receive rep from a green block member.
Click on 'Setting' up the top right. It will say 'Latest Rep Received' and will show the latest points received.
Thanks, yeah i knew that i was just wondering what the grey blocks do. Ive come back from -12 points though! Got neg repped by benjamin and bludger in one go for a stupid comment...lesson learnt! lawl
I guess ill have to post up some DIY's, most of the good ones have been taken though lols. ill find something though
hi guys just new thought i would say hi :)
^welcome mate! You may use the "Introduction" thread to introduce yourself and your car to OzHonda. Enjoy your stay.

I think that there needs to be a re-enforcing of the idea of giving out rep points, and make it more clear to newer members.
What happens is that very limited amounts of "thanks" are given out, because many people do not know how to use it.
I am not really that fussed, but some people I am sure would like to have the ability to sell something and be recognised as a "member" of the community. Rather than just a newbie. Especially if they have been on this site for over a year or so.
I guess there's no harm in promoting it (ie get people to hand out more points).
As for letting new users know about it, it's there in bright Red text at the forum index when you sign in. It's also there in the Marketplace as a sticky.
How much reputation needs to be spread around before you can give it to the same user again? Although this stops you from consistently and unfairly building one person's rep it also prevents you from giving them good rep for multiple useful posts.
Also I'm not sure how I feel about grey-block members not being able to add reputation to others simply because they've received none. Even if ten grey-block reps only gave you one point together I think it would be better than nothing as most people can recognise a quality post with or without their own recognition.
^ i agree, ive had about 8 or 9 grey block PQ points. would be cool if ya got even just +1 for 10 grey blocks
I'm not sure about the time/points you have to spread around before you can give points back to that same person. But as you said, it prevents people abusing the system to some degree, giving points out to each other. And note that if this is detected it will not be dealt with lightly. If this prevents you giving a genuine point to the same member then its just bad luck. Just keep sharing around and you'll be able to rep them in the future.
You need points to give out points, its as simple as that. So if you don't have anything, you can't give anything out. The more points you have and the more green blocks you have the more points you give out in each rep. The 10 grey block, +1 point as stated above simply goes against how it all works. These guys have no rep at all and your asking for 1 point? Or to put it this way: 10 grey block reps x 0, cannot equal 1 point.
People just need to stick with it, be patient, make some good helpful posts/links etc. The PQ system is there for a reason.
I think Dean covered it all in his post above.
The rep/PQ spread is currently set to 15 users. Once again, this is to prevent abuse of the system (has happend in the past).
i really wish i could sell parts on here :( should be minimum 50 or 100 posts because as mentioned before some users don't know how to thank..but i guess to thank/rep someone you have to be a member which means you know how to haha
you're already trying to sell mate, look @ you're sig
yeah i know, is that allowed?
Nope its not. Whats the point of gaining member status then? Please remove from signature.

Regarding points. Please stick with it. I can see you've made some helpful posts, so please be persistent and you'll get there.
Hmm been on forums for a while now and still 0 :(
I think the euro forums is dead compared to others...
I think i have made a few good posts and learned a lot from aarongggs posts too. Great forum for general car knowledge
edit: Just realised I have 4 post quality pts :D Didn't see that till today haha
great work guys
Hi im new to this whole pq system so i was wondering if someone could help clear up a couple things i dont get yet :)
Ive gotten some pq points and earned a green block and am wondering if i should be giving out pq points now even though they they are +0 points or am i better waiting till i have my second green block so i can actually add +1 to the posts that have been helpful?
Also if i was to give a pq point to someone now while im giving +0 could i then go back once ive got a second block and change it so they get the +1 point?
Sorry if this has been covered before ive read most of this thread and the faq's/stickys but am still unsure.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Adam
Just get in to the habit and start repping good posts now. Everyones in the same boat at the beginning. You cannot rep the same post a 2nd time, system won't let you. You also cannot rep the same person in succession. You need to spread reps around before repping them again. Hope that helps (he says while stuffing his mouth with pancakes)
Thanks for clearing that up mate ill get too it :)
Just Rep anywaays. I dunno about other people, but I always go in and check my Rep, and who gave it to me, then ill go and find a post of there's that deserves it.
Sent from my custard cannon like Peter North.
Lol ive just repped you while you were posting that trism, for that prefacelift/facelift thread :)
Lol yeah but I did say I find one that deserves it lolz
Sent from my custard cannon like Peter North.
hope i can make some good posts in the future
good hint is good
just wondering about negative rep, does it use the same rules?
i know that if an acc with 1 green block gives rep, it amounts to 0.
if an acc with 2 green block gives rep, it amounts to 2.
if a newcomer gives you a neg rep, does it amounts to 0 or -1?
if an acc with 1 green block neg rep, does it amount to 0 or -1? etc.
Newcomer neg rep = 0. (i know this from experience :p)
1green block neg rep = 0 also. you need atleast two blocks for your rep to have any effect. Im quite sure on that :D
Positive and negative rep / PQ have the same weightings yes.
how come after jeremy gave me a rep i lost my first rep?
It cycle's through. only showing the latest 5 rep's you have recieved.
For some season mine CP isnt working?
Nevermind lol im member now xD
There is no way to un rep someone is there.
Rep the wrong user by accident. They really didn't deserve it.
give negative feedback would probably work.
Can't rep the same person :(
I'll forget by then.
ftl
I've already forgotten who it is
lmzo
how the fk are you on 5 blocks lmao
ask yourself the same question.
Be here long enough and you'll accumulate them anyway.
haah well, back in the days when i used to contribute all the time, i got my PQ points
but you were red block gangster most of the time, then you dont post for a few years, and suddenly now you are on 5 blocks lmao
anyway, i couldnt give a crap really, just found it amusing
green. block. gangster.
need 28 points to get to 2 block gangster status
i got banned for neg repping a post i thought wasnt helpful
go figure.
was it a mod you neg repped? lol.
how many infraction points can you accumulate til you get banned?
See here info on the infractions system.
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?59373
As you can see (1st table) Shows the number of infraction points received for each type of infraction. (2nd table) Shows ban length depending on how many infraction points are accumulated.
who can i contact if i feel i was neg repped incorrectly?
the guy above you
Ive been a member sice April and have posted some good info but have not been reped any points, Im an honest user and have bought from the forums and have good feedback, I have some parts to post for sale but cant because of the rep rating system. I would really appreciate it if someone could rep me some points or if the Mods could help me out so i can post my parts.. posting good parts also helps our forum members too!
I went back though your posts.
A lot of questions, a lot of buying, a lot of comments.
No helpful or informative posts.
you have a chance here,
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...95#post3128495
Im still in the process on that one im nearly done, the lsd is in the shop having the bearings removed (hopefully get it back 2mora) then i can continue with the install and write up my results which im sure will be helpful to other members if they ever have the problems i had.
The info in my thread http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...-pump-for-B18c would have helped me if it was up on here before i bought my pump...
icon is missing.. couldent figure it out straight away.
Was it in the lounge? You can't give rep in the lounge.
Hey all
I believe i have been here for longer then 90 days and i have PQ points and it still says im a newbie...

Thanks all
Thanks mate. Couldnt remeber the excat date

Thread Bump.
Been here since 09, known in the S2K section, answered many PM's regarding my N/A setup, have actually bought an intake and wing off the for sale section, however never received any feedback from it, and now that I'm starting to part out my S2000, cannot make any threads in the sales section so have to take my business over to s2ki.
Sent a PM to a mod, no response yet.
Halp?
i dont know what the point of your post is?
you dont have any positive rep points. What is a mod gonna do about it?
Youve answered many PMs, but have you made an effort to answer questions in general posts? No, it doesnt look like it. Youve got an entire 21 posts, 5 of them are in the market section, and of the other 16, one of them is this one im replying to, and the 15 remaining dont seem to be all that helpful?
You want the ability to sell, why not post in the rest of the forum, like the n00b section, or any of the other places.
Dont restrict yourself to the s2k section like you have been.
Gizdawg. Your answering your own questions. PM's are 'private messages'. Your not getting points for that. Please help out on the actual forum and you will get a point or points. Sorry, but thems the rules. Apologies for not responding to your PM, but we will not be responding to these questions re wanting a point or can sell, as stated in FS sticky here:
