    Experience Points on Forum

    I'm sorry if this is somewhere on the site that I haven't looked, though I did use the search and even checked the FAQ.

    My question is a simple one, and so I'm hoping that it's easily answered. Exactly how is experience handled? I ask because every few days I post, I get some experience points and then from no where, with no negative actions against me, I lose a large chunk of it.

    Here's an example:

    02-05-2010
    09:18 AM DarkenedSky has lost 280 Experience point(s)
    09:18 AM DarkenedSky has earned 7 Experience point(s)

    02-03-2010
    09:18 AM DarkenedSky has earned 3 Experience point(s)

    02-02-2010
    09:16 AM DarkenedSky has lost 275 Experience point(s)
    09:16 AM DarkenedSky has earned 2 Experience point(s)

    Now, I don't see where I did anything to lose points, let alone get an infraction of any sort (which I don't have, unless this is the new way to do it).

    Can I get a little bit of light shed on this, please?

    on a side note, how does rep work? "how to raise rep(utation)" searches on the forum doesn't provide anything helpful, or understandable

    Find the section on "Reputation".

    In short, reputation is a system where if someone helps you, posts something useful for you, etc. you give them reputation by clicking the blue "+REP" button on the post that you thought deserved reputation. Reputation is sort of like a measure of how much a user is contributing to MMOwned.

    Also, don't ask for reputation when you post something.

    Depending on how much rep you have your rank on the forum will increase.

    0-4 rep = New user

    5-1x = member

    1x-79 = Established user

    80-300 = Contributor

    300-600 = Epic

    600+ Legendary


    Depending on what rank you have you can rep more, give infraction points and access different parts of the site.

    Elite (not epic) starts at 325, not 300, zantas. The rest is correct though.

    ^^

    I only thought of purple and purple reminded me of epic
    anyway I always thought it was 325, but I saw people writing 300 so often that I got stuck in my mind.
