    I did manage to rep everybody.
    Then when I tried to rep two people today, I got that on my second try.

    Um, once someone has reached 2500 reps, how do you change your custom title?

    Then you had better start hoping that people give you negative reps instead of positive ones so that you can stay away from 2500 rep points. This is Hilarious!!! I praise the sarcasm of the Gotwoot Overlords. ROFLMAO!!!

    Edit: I just reread the first page, you need 5000 to get a custom title, not 2500

    Edit2: Nevermind. seems like the post on the first page was never updated

    Ho... 5000? What's this? When somebody reaches the current limit, they give him a custom title and multiply the limit by two? So, now it's 5000. If somebody actually manages to get that high, the third person will need 10000. Well, well, somebody hoped there wouldn't be too many custom titles around, and this certainly makes sure that remains true.

    Well, this post says otherwise. Also, if it was 5000 then what's up with my title?

    It means the person who repped you did not have enough of a rep hit value to make any difference, probably someone who just signed up at the forums or someone with an overall negative rep

    just to confirm, the promotion happens at 2500. Which is why xDM's title got overridden with that.

    Now it's up to him to go into his user control panel and hit "edit profile" and come up with a clever and interesting custom title.

    Good to know. I thought it was part of some grand marketing scheme to get people to write in the "Offical Countdown to the end of fillers!" thread.

    I can't find it, am I looking at the right place? This is all I see under "edit profile."

    Edit: NVM, Comp fixed it. Thanks!

    In other news, I have, on a whim, increased the number of rep hits you can see in the user control panel from 5 to 15.

    I feel this is a good balance, giving you a larger window for more perspective, while not being too spammy.

  14. #234
    Is it at all possible to see the rep you have given?

    It's a One Piece reference. CP# stands for "Cipher Pol #" which is the name given to the OP World Government's secret agent cells. In the story, CP1-8 are regular agent groups while CP9 are elite agents.

    Maybe I'm slow, but I only now realised that potentially the number of people reaching 2500 in any sensible time should be cumulatively increasing all the time. Or lets say the speed people reach that limit. This is simply because more and more people will have higher reputation powers, as the impact factor of the reputation score is high on your power. So, when active people rep here and there, every active (and decent) poster gets higher power, and in turn deals it out.

    Well, I'm sure most of the people are still far away from the limit (myself included), with only a couple having reached it, but ultimately it should allow a decent amount of people to have creative custom titles. Some time ago I still thought this nearly impossible, but I had failed to take in the account the fact the speed is accelerating all the time. Jolly good times.

    Edit: Apparently somebody failed to understand what I wrote (and gave neg rep), so in short: As time goes and people deal out reputation to each other, they all gain higher and higher reputation power, because the power depends heavily on the total rep score. And thus every time they give more reputation to others than before. So, the speed at which everybody's reputation grows is accelerating all the time, and it's easier to get the 2500 points necessary for a custom title.

    Awsome thanks man, that has been a big help.

    But personally i use it as a means to double check myself. See if there is something that i might have done wrong or could have done better or what i did right to continue to do it. As long as i am true to myself.

    Don't really think i care about this custom title thing though. Didn't even know the limit.

    But i do love the new description that you added as the reps goes higher.

    xxxxxx is a serious rep- whore.

    xxxx is either an admin or is blowing one.

    those are two of my favorites. There should be more from the 1000 point mark onward. But i guess there are more important things that you have to deal with.

    Anyways thanks again for the increase number of rep hits i can see.

    CP is a common insult in sweden. "Man you are totally CP". It stands for Cerebral Paresis/Paralysis. That was the first thing I thought about when I saw the title. Yes, I know, it's an awful insult. But I don't make up the rules, I just break 'em.
