PeterJoe Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hello all, Can anyone tell me why my reputation is rated -1 and who does the rating? 17 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquess Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 (edited) Gave you a +1. Now your rep should be "0". Some one didn't like what you said and gave you a "-". The Rep is based on what other people think of your posts. Tread lightly. There are some quick fingers in here.

AKReindeer Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hello all, Can anyone tell me why my reputation is rated -1 and who does the rating? Somebody didn't like a statement you make in one of your posts and gave you a minus. I gave you a plus for this post, and it looks like someone else gave you one also. So now you should be in the positive stage - provided you don't risk losing it all and post something else.... (personally, I don't pay attention to my reputation points. I call them "venting points" - folks don't like what they see in a post, get ticked-off and punch that minus button) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJoe Posted January 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Gave you a +1. Now your rep should be "0". Some one didn't like what you said and gave you a "-". The Rep is based on what other people think of your posts. Tread lightly. There are some quick fingers in here. Wow... I mostly ask questions in my post. Why would anybody rate me as -1 because I ask questions? Somebody didn't like a statement you make in one of your posts and gave you a minus. I gave you a plus for this post, and it looks like someone else gave you one also. So now you should be in the positive stage - provided you don't risk losing it all and post something else.... (personally, I don't pay attention to my reputation points. I call them "venting points" - folks don't like what they see in a post, get ticked-off and punch that minus button) So, mean ppl are here, too. I should expect them anywhere, right. Why should anyone give a negative remark for asking question? I ask question mostly. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquess Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Wow... I mostly ask questions in my post. Why would anybody rate me as -1 because I ask questions? Honesltly PJ I don't know. Maybe they didn't like the question. Go to your profile and click on posts. You can look at all the posts you made and see where the minus came from. Don't let it worry you. Keep asking questions and do a lot of reading on the forums. All kinds of info for you to form your own opinion. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumper64 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 PeterJoe, Sad to say but we have some negative nannies on here that walk around with a doom and gloom cloud over their head and they love to give post a ( - ). But on the bright side we have a lot move positive people that are here to help and they will most always make up for the couple bad ones! The ratings are given to each of us by our fellow investors on this site so...for the most part if you are positive you will get ( + ) and if you are negative/hurtful/bashing or just being a jerk you will most likely receive ( - ) from your fellow investors! I hope this helps! Good Luck Bump 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DumNDumer Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) --- PETER JOE Hello all, Can anyone tell me why my reputation is rated -1 and who does the rating ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ REPLY--DumNDumer Personally i believe so many are in a state of lack and anything that sounds negative sends them into a certain state of fear--therefore they get trigger happy and click the minus--doesn't really reflect on your reputation-- only God knows the outcome- we shall trust him--Blessing to you Edited January 29, 2011 by DumNDumer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Iraq Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Hello all, Can anyone tell me why my reputation is rated -1 and who does the rating? Gave you a +1. Sometimes If you ask the wrong question or question some statements you may receive a -1. Doesn't take any money away from you and I wouldn't take it personal.

deenar Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Hello all, Can anyone tell me why my reputation is rated -1 and who does the rating? It also could be that someone tried to give you a plus but hit the wrong button. I've done that before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
