Since i have just finished my Maths coursework and there wasn't much posting going on i decided to scroll through the members list. I was very impressed with the fact that it said there were 2,942 members to this site, when i did some sorting i found that only 786 have posted something! Also I noticed that it apeared that if you didnt post for a while you lose your reputation, how long do you have to not post for, for that to happen?

I know, I felt the post needed a picture but unless I took a picture of some members it wouldn't be relevant. So I decided to do the next best thing, include a totally irrelevant picture.

nice piece of analysis, I had just concluded that posting nothing for a while increased my reputation. My two cents for that :D

There are many members who join to read and see the attachments on the forums, its a shame they feel they have no comments,opinions or knowledge to share or contribute.

In regards to the reputation points, this is a fairly new system that was incorporated in the hopes of increasing the amount of "quality" posts, members who have a ZERO rating were members before the system was put in place and have not been active, new members start with 10 points, but it takes a rating of 20 points to affect another members reputation level.
