Minor question about rep points

[Dallas12]

There are two things to look at.

Reputation Points & Reputation Power.

Reputation Power (the zero you see) is the amount of points you can inflict upon another member. This is zero for everyone except eejit101 and myself (we are the only two who can change your actual reputation).

Reputation Points are what determine your current tier level (you can see the numerical value of your rep points in the User CP).

Thanks NDN I got it now.

Sorry guys one more question, lol. Does the chip earning rate vary within tiers, or does it only change when your tier changes? Like can a person with a higher number of points in tier 3 earn more chips per post than another person in the same tier with fewer points?

I have this same question so if NDN or Eejit can go ahead and answer this that would be great.

The rate is always constant for each tier.

I should add that it's not just the rate of earning chips for posts that changes with each tier.

You will also get more chips for referring new members and a few other things as you reach higher tiers.
