    Reputation not going up?q
    I have a bit of negative reputation, and I've recently got a handful of positive rep. But the points are the same? Bug or something else I'm missing here?

    Thanks!

    Not all users have the power to alter your rep score, so you've probably receiving pos rep from users with no power.

    The rep that can be given depends on your green gems

    That is why I am worth 5

    Thanks. Yeah, I think the negative rep I got is people thinking I'm begging for rep, but I was merely asking a question. But thanks anyway :P

    It's also worth remembering that if a user can +5 your rep, s/he can also -5 your rep.
