I use removable stickies myself.

Well I was mostly just being sarcastic more than matter of fact in the first place. But it sure gave everyone a little fun release in the afternoon.

Be mean about it, give on positive and three negative to get the one negative effect but he feels your displeasure.
I give it out one pos and one neg sometimes to get a half positive.

It makes you feel bad.
Bad for you or them I will not tell.
Revised System:
Dark Green = 150
Light Green = 250
Gold = 800
Gold Stars = 10,000
Grey = 0
Dark Red = -150
Light Red = -250
Red Stars = -10,000
You can have a max of 5 Dk Green, 5 Lt Green, and 10 Gold Dots. When you hit that limit, you'll get a Gold Star, and "Start Over".
Just a suggestion...
Sticky this particular post or do something else to make this list easy to find. I've looked before, and given up before I got far enough through this thread to find out what things mean.
Stickied Thanks for the suggestion

I've been looking up things about rep points and but I was thinking that it might be easier to just ask here.
When I look up my rep points under user CP, I noticed that I have two that are grey instead of green. Do these comments affect my rep or not? If I were to get a negative, would it be in red?

The blue/gray rep points are from new posters who have less than 50 posts, and they don't affect your rep at all; as far as points go, they are neutral.
Correct. Negative rep is red.
The gray means that the poster can make a comment about you should they choose, but they cannot influence your score for whatever reason.

Will their comments go positive or negative once they have reached the 50 post mark or do they stay neutral because they weren't at that level at the time the comments were posted?
Not on staff anymore, but I believe the answer is still no. It only keeps track of the value at the time given. So if I gave you one early on then later gained in pots and my own reputation the value I gave you then woudl be the same and not constantly changing. If I gave you a new one it would be at the new value.
Does that help?
Rich is correct. Plus a person's rep comment may show up as gray for reasons other than having less than 50 points...such as their reputation being disabled, or their own rep score being at zero or less. The only thing that counts is what the person's score/situation was when they offered the rep to you.
