RE: What Is The Steem Reputation Score?

in #steem8 years ago

Oh good call! I need to check out the code more. I haven't looked through it yet (and it seems like there's some logic I haven't learned yet), but so unless there's something somewhere else in the code, when upvoting someone reputation score doesn't change the reptuation boost one receives unless its negative, in which case there's no effect?

Sort:  

Hi @jeffbernst, I got a confirmation that the FAQ is wrong. So the above rules should be correct:

  • any upvote increases your reputation as long as the voter has a positive reputation. The increase is not dependent on the voter reputation, but only on the value of the vote
  • a downvote will only reduce your reputation if the downvoter has a higher reputation than you

Awesome, thanks for letting me know! It's really cool to see how posting your question on Github led to Tim Cliff updating his Condenser fork. I'll make a note on my post that my original info was incorrect. Thanks again! 👍
