❓ Please Explain the Reputation System
Could someone please explain to me how Reputation System works here? MPGH is clearly using vBulletin but they're not using default settings. My Reputation Power is 10 and no matter how many I received from other users, it shows up as Grey (Invalid) in my Settings page and doesn't add to my power, thus I can't increase others Reputation because my Reputation Power is 0.

Could someone please explain how it exactly works here?
You have 10 reputation, but your reputation power is 0...

It's because people repping you don't have enough rep themselves for it to change your rep.
If I am not wrong, rep power is determined by the join date and the amount of rep you have.
Default amount of rep is 10, so you won't have any rep power until you get around 50rep I guess.
It's like the more rep you have the more you can give, not sure if it includes posts/thanks as well.
The more posts you have the higher the rep you give.
Every one of you says something different, I have posts and my join date is old but I still can't increase someone's REP.

Because you only have 10 reputation. Your rep power is 0. To have a greater rep power you must have higher rep. Take mine for example, my reputation power is over 100.

You need more reputation to gain reputation power....
The content of your posts is of such a good quality I am surprised no one has given you any reputation yet.

They have given me Grey (Invalid) reputation. How is one supposed to give reputation valid when it's required to have received rep before? Doesn't this make an infinite cycle?
Posts influence it too, so keep spamming and you will eventually gain reputation power.

Do you know how many posts are required to have at least 1 power? My power is 0 now.
You can add to users reputation if you have 2500 posts +
