Hi there guys n gals,
This is for the noobs, and the ones that have been here for a while but seem to miss this particular thing concerning this here community site.
The Subject is
Up/Down Votes
In the 5 months I have been here, I have noticed a great many people don't use these magical little buttons.
Some may just ignore them, others may not have noticed them, and the remaining ones that dont use them may just be, um .,... not interested (I shall go with not interested)
In case you have not seen, these are those tiny little buttons
Basically, they are there, similar to the Facebook Like button, excapt you have the chance to "dislike" the post.
They are there to help users build their Rep.
You may have noticed there are things you cannot do when you first join due to Not Enough Privileges
This is either lack of Rep Points or you are not part of a given "Group".
If you have a low rep, but are aiming to one day become a Mod, then your Rep matters.....
(It is a requirement that you have at least 1000 Rep points)
Also, if you upvote
people you respond to, they are more likely to upvote
your reply.
It's a two way street people
SO
When you respond to a post dont forget to up (or if you prefer down) vote the topic you reply to.
Happy responding peeps XD
