    Apparently at some time or another I was asking stupid questions or posting things I could have searched for.. or at least I assume thats it. This caused people to "rate" me down I assume and thus the reason for the two little red (you are not very well liked.. )dots next to my name. Now, I'm a fairly likeable guy, and wondered what one has to do to get back in the green?

    Hi azmyth, while I don't know the answer to your question, sadly it's part and parcel of cohabiting the world of point-scoring Internet nazis.

    Essentially we are here to disseminate and absorb information - 'stupid' questions are welcome - we shouldn't have to fear the wrath of the zealous.

    Good luck.

    Yes, the dilemma: to post or not to post? That is the stupid question.

    Correct.
    The purple image is given when someone left you reputation whilst they had next to zero rep power.
    So, although they left you rep, they had none to give!

    I have a question, when you click on the little thumb(red/green) does that distribute the rep the same as when you click the rep button under the users avatar?

    So a new member can give you all the rep in the world and it will make no difference because they don't have any? I never knew.

    Anyway, even if it doesn't add you any rep, it's always rewarding to see that newcommers had positively rated your post because it was helpfull for them!
    My opinion.

    Just wondering, is Bob Sanders has his own reputation with that red star up the red squares? I know he's off the scale, but what does it means? reputation³...

    Rep gazers may have noticed a red splat appearing in the night sky. This can be seen, with the naked eye, just to the west of the crab nebula.
    The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

    After a couple, even though you give rep, it might not count if a user has given too much, AFAIK


    Edit, Just saw one of Bob's posts...

    That wasn't by chance the Mac vs. PC troll roast, was it, or was it something different?
