    the more rep you have the more dragons you have slayed/virgins you have bedded.
    Baseball = 1 ball
    Basketball = 1 ball
    Volleyball = 1 ball
    DH = 2 balls

    Rep is directly related to how good a skater you are.

    its just a way to see who knows what they are talking about or who is funny. a decent way of distinguishing the good guys from the smurfs.... er i mean bad guys

    and the more rep you get the more swag you get when you order from online shops like GullibleSkater.net

    i use it to say "hey, i like what you did there" that being, they made something, taught something or did something cool. basically anything special done away from the computer.

    with great rep comes great responsibility.... or something....

    no, each green box is equal to 5. so its rep power x 5. you are allowed 5 beers.

    Its doesn't do anything, it's just a scale, the more green bars next to a users name, the more a an entitled douchbag they are. And the less likely they will be go give you helpful answers to your questions.

    each rep power power is directly related to the length of your e-penis.

    for example, if you have 5 rep power, your e-penis looks like this,
    8=====D

    and if you have 25 it looks like this
    8=========================D

    Rep means one of 3 things:

    Funny.

    Have lots of friends.

    Very helpful.

    That's about it. Don't look too much into it. The only good thing about high rep is when a arrogant, ignorant, or absolutely retarded noods come in here and I can put them in red (negative rep) with one click. Normally, if you see someone with red rep, they don't have anything worth to say. Some guys are cool and collect neg rep, but new rules about that have been set in motion.
