What's with Reputation?

I think it might be both likes you give and get, because I have noticed some newer people have a considerably higher rep count than post count. Just a guess.

But that is easy to do, since a single post can have several likes.

Hmmm,I think there is something strange going on and got  bad reputation..

Because I kinda noticed,I've been living in the past when  it's a new generation.

I realize that a girl can do what she wants to do and that's what I'm gonna do ..

Ahh never mind..

 I don't give a damn ' bout my bad reputation

If you unlike something you've liked, I wonder if it subtracts 1 from the reputation of the relevant forumite.

Chi Rey's says quietly to herself: "I'm not gonna make a pun on this, I'm not gonna make a pun on this, I'm not gonna make a pun on this, I'm not gonna... I... can't... resist..."

Unlike the post you like and keep liking it's likely that...

oh, never mind!

I just tested it with your post. I Liked it and 1 was added to your rep. I unliked it, and the 1 was not removed. I tried liking it again, but nothing more was added to your rep. So we get one 'like' per post. It's added to the rep score and, once added, it can't be removed. The like can be unliked, but the score doesn't decrease.

I guess that means we can be neutral or wonderful, but no one can have a negative reputation as there's no way for it to go down.

That's right. There isn't an unlike button until you've added 1 point with the Like button, and using that unlike button doesn't remove the 1 point you gave when you Liked it. The beauty of it is that even totally obnoxious people like me can't be worse than neutral

So this allows us to alt up, like our own posts to bump the rep count, then unlike the posts to erase the evidence.
