So. How much reputation must you gain in order to be banned?
I was changing my avatar last night and noticed I had points of "reputation." The recent one was for a post I made in a role-play story, and the comment left in my inbox/notice box/thing was "Stupid *ss."
Anyways, I'm at 8. How many points are needed before you're banned?
EDIT: My bad. "Complete *ss."

I don't think reputation is a bad thing. I've only got one that is bad... I hope... I'm at 9. I believe they are there for consideration if you're going to be baned or if your going to be moderator or something like that....
Shall I give you a good reputation for an example?
Ps. I kinda forgot how to check them.... How do you do it again?

I don't think rep counts toward getting band. The impression I get is that you can be an ass as much as you want, until the mods get sick of you. Once you get a temp ban it seems to leave you open for a permanent one.
I've only got one rep point from some anime thread. It says 'Z' and left me with a grey mark.

I found out how to check them actually. Oddly only 4 appear when it says I have 9. How you check them is by clicking on control panel.

I think people might be able to give you more than one point with only one click. I only have one showing when I check, but it says I have 10; I don't know how that works at all. |

LOL Sevenwritez, most people's little green box says 'on a distinguished road': yours reads "is an unknown quantity at this point"

Well, that settles it. I might as well start rapping and become the next Eminem. Being fucked up his whole life led to fame and fortune.
EDIT:
And if it's not a rapper that I make it as
I'ma being fuckin' rapist
