Hi All, curiousity item here. What do the "pips" (little green squares) beside your post count in each posted item mean? How do they get set? Some people have one, some people have 3, some have more. They don't seem to be related to the actual number of posts, since I have seen people with the same number of posts but different numbers of "pips".

How does this whole "pip" thing work?

that is the famed User Reputation System, the more green dots a person has, the more reputation they have earned.

See my signature for some helpful forum features. Also see the stickies in News and Community announcements. What the heck are pips? ha. I prefer bars or green squares. Pip sounds like a poor english child.
