I tried to rate NightKngiht on some questions he asked in the Quiz Room and it gave me this:
Quote: You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to NightKnight again. Just out of curiosity, how much reputation do I have "to spread" before I can rate one person again? Evidently this is not something to be used on every post you may like or dislike...

Lyta, we cannot choose how many points we give on the reputation function - a user has points based on various factors, including her/his own reputation. A click will give whatever rating "weight" I have to give.

Use the power wisely!
Quote:
Reputation should only be awarded in respect of those posts which you find particularly insightful, helpful, well argued, well written, witty etc. In this regard, it's worth filling out the reason for approving (or disapproving) a post, since identifying what exactly it is that you like about a thread will help you in working out whether it really merits a Reputation boost (and it will also tell the recipient exactly what he/she is doing right (or wrong)).

Yes, I had originally thought it was some sort of "Hey that was a nice post" thing that you could give out whenever. Indeed I shall use this power wisely, now that I now what it is!

10 Points?
I still don’t get it. If I click on my reputation scale it says you have 10 reputation points. Does this mean 10 people have given me a reputation on that one post or throughout the few weeks?

I guess the number of points is divided between the posts below the score. But it didn't say how many points there were for each rating.

10 points is the startup capital. I believe each additional positive rating brings along five more. But it should be checked with administration rather
