You can mouse over your rep blobs to see your rank.

Reputation Level 1 - 20
User rank is just a lowly private

Reputation Level 20 - 50
User rank is Private First Class

Reputation Level 50 - 100
User rank is Lance Corporal

Reputation Level 100 - 500
User rank is Corporal

Reputation Level 500 – 2,000
User rank is Sergeant

Reputation Level 2,000 – 5,000
User rank is Sergeant Major

Reputation Level 5,000 – 10,000
User rank is Second Lieutenant

Reputation Level 10,000 – 20,000
User rank is First Lieutenant

Reputation Level 20,000 – 30,000
User rank is Captain

Reputation Level 30,000 – 40,000
User rank is Major

Reputation Level 40,000 – 50,000
User rank is Lieutenant Colonel

Reputation Level 50,000 – 60,000
User rank is Colonel

Reputation Level 60,000 – 70,000
User rank is Brigadier General

Reputation Level 70,000 – 80,000
User rank is Major General

Reputation Level 80,000 – 90,000
User rank is Lieutenant General

Reputation Level 90,000 – 100,000
User rank is General

So, my two questions:

First, what about when your rank is, for example, 500?

Would we be a Corporal or a Sergeant?
This is consistent for every single user rank.
Methinks it should be something like "Reputation level 501 - 2,000: Sergeant".

Second, what about when you have over 100k rep?

Maybe it should just say something like "Reputation level > 90,000: General"?

Both are already accounted for - you will just have to do a little research on your own

We need someone with exactly 100 rep (1 rep power)... And someone with over 100k rep. Simon?

Nah, look at the members.

Testpig has 1024 rep .... so he has exactly 100,000 rep.
Simon has 520 or something like that.

Testpig has 99891

so if we repped him up 109, we could see what happens, but i'm sure we're all reluctant to do that.

red blobs weren't changed. I proved that by giving `i am megahax0r and got banned from 40 forums` a bright red one with a single derep shot.

thaminda agrees: Anyone who has negative reputation will have only one red blobs.

chadsmith729 agrees: haha, neat!

I think they have changed a bit - the News_User seems to have a
few less red blobs than I remember...

Comments on this post

LinuxPenguin agrees: I thought you could only get 10 reddies?
