freezedragon he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 How would i earn shards to boost my standing? 5
Elbereth she/her Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I'm not sure what you're talking about. If you mean the little gray box with '0: 17th Shard Trainee' inside, they you're talking about reputation points. To find out more about them, try this link: http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/3857-reputation-points/ 1
Shardlet he/him Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 In a nutshell, reputation points are awarded by the community members for posts that you make which they find to be insightful, clever, or funny. Everybody has their own criteria. The best way to get rep points is to participate in the forum discussions or games we have here. If you wish to award someone a rep point, simply click on the green up-arrow in the bottom right of the post you liked. You will also note that there is a red down-arrow. You must decide under what circumstances you will smack someone with a down-vote (a negative rep point). For me personally, I only down-vote posts that seem to me to be particularly offensive. I have given maybe three downvotes in my 9 months here (excluding those in the theFallGuy experiment). 1
Duskshard he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 You have to win them by killing a shardbearer, but be warned, this can be extremely dangerous without shards of your own. Good luck. 2
Swimmingly he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I downvote posts that are a breach forum etiquette, or make me feel angry inside, except for double posts. In that case, I downvote one and upvote the second.
Mailliw73 he/him Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Yes, the on,y ones I downvote are ones where people are jut plain rude. Which, happily, doesn't happen often.
Bloodfalcon he/him Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I'll be honest, I have been downvoting things that are just plain useless AND annoying. When someone brings up a really old thread and just posts "cool" or something like that. It just clutters the front of each board and 400 people waste their time reading your single useless word. Can't stand it. 1

Delightful Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) except for double posts. In that case, I downvote one and upvote the second. Wait, what does that even achieve? Confused here. Cool <Unsure whether to downvote or upvote> Edited March 2, 2014 by Delightful 1
Swimmingly he/him Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Wait, what does that even achieve? Confused here. <Unsure whether to downvote or upvote> A sum of zero gained rep, but a gentle message spelled in red pixels.
