Its not perfect, as @Agent Trent Hauser is pretty active here, but still has a low score.
What is the obligation you feel?See, that's why I was hesitant to make the thread. I didn't want to seem to be campaigning for a different number beside my avatar.
The whole thing just seems kind of weird and awkward without a clear definition of what it means.
You are responsible for most of my rep points. I'm grateful, I understand the good will behind the gesture. Like in the meme though, I feel like now I have an obligation to you for a thing I never requested and still don't really value, due to the lack of definition.
Please, this is not an insult or attack on you or anyone else in "management". I appreciate what you are building here. I guess I just wanted to open up a discussion and see if it's just me or if others have similar thoughts.
Additional question on rep points actually because I just noticed this ... @Agent Trent Hauser had 75 rep points ... then I added +10 and it went to 84, which seemed odd ... so I looked back and realized I had given him +1 previously... so it appears they're cumulative? So when I just said +10 for the meme, it actually only added 9 to the 1 I already gave him... am I understanding that right?
Shouldn't be that way. Points are straight up depending on how many you put. Not sure why it would have done that.Additional question on rep points actually because I just noticed this ... @Agent Trent Hauser had 75 rep points ... then I added +10 and it went to 84, which seemed odd ... so I looked back and realized I had given him +1 previously... so it appears they're cumulative?

There is a post in Site News that had the initial point set up for those of you that have qualified with the guidelines:

Enhanced Functionality The side menu on mobile devices has been organized with dropdowns within the site sections:phenohunter.org
Please review, and if you have met any of these and we haven't rewarded yet (it is a manual process), then we will instantly award you the points accordingly. With any new system feature, it can be confusing, and we evolve as we go. As @jaguarlax stated above, once the system is perfected, we can turn these points into tangible rewards. It was just a shame to see people saying "+1" and such for well versed posts that didn't seem to go anywhere. That can be accomplished in the reaction scores as a like. But with +1, we can accumulate and actualize these - then reward accordingly.
