Whether you're a new member or an old pro, the Reputation system on OwnedCore is the best way to let other forum users know that you found their posts or topic helpful, useful, or interesting. Generally speaking, a user can decide to give Rep for just about anything they want, but as Reputation points are limited and capped, it is a good practice to spend them on useful posts.

Why is Rep Important?

Reputation rewards contributors to the site by allowing them to rise in rank and access the hidden forums and other features available only to forumgoers of a higher echelon. These ranks carry with them a great level of respect, and this can also help with proving trustworthiness during transactions or trades on OwnedCore's Trading Market.

While there are many contributors on the site, not all of them get the Reputation or rank they deserve. You can help by spreading out your Rep points evenly each day. Browse the forums and don't forget to give Reputation to any posts you've found useful or intriguing.

How do I "Rep" Other Users?

The process is simple. Look for the star icon at the bottom of the post, then select "Positive Reputation" once you are taken to the menu. If applicable, type in the number of Reputation points you'd like to give for the post, then click to confirm. After this, the user will be one step closer to Legendary, Elite, or Contributor on the forums.

Alternatively, users can gain access to the Shared and Donator forums by becoming an OwnedCore Donator rank. For more information on becoming a Donator, see this link.

Enjoy your stay, and don't forget to Rep users that have been helpful to you!
