Basics?

[Riku's New Look]

It's been 8+ months since I last logged in, and the site has changed a lot. (lovin' it by the way) I just don't get everything yet.
What do the level and experience stuff mean? How do you get started on that?
And how do you go back and view hwy you got rep and how many rep points you got?
Basically, I need a tutorial for this site again. xD

FAQ
KHIxp!

User CP lets you see your rep.
The number next to your rep boxes tells you how much rep you give away when you, well, rep them.
The number of boxes you get increases every 200 rep points you get.

The number of boxes you get increases every 200 rep points you get.

Should be one hundred, I think.

Each 100 points after your first point will earn you another box.

 

[Muse]

Huh. Well, the FAQ said 200.

 

[Pelafina]

Bright Boxes
Upon reaching 500 rep points, you'll net yourself a bright green box. To obtain another, you must get 200 more rep points. You can have up to six bright green boxes. Unfortunately (not really), there's nothing to look forward to beyond that.

That's only after five hundred, before that it's every hundred posts.

Oh. My mistake then.

OK, I'm still not seeing what you're talking about when I visit my user CP.
And what about the leveling thing thats under everyone's Rep thing there?

If you click on the link Araliya posted about KHIxp, that thread will explain the 'thing under the rep.'

And you probably don't have any new reputation to view since the reset, so the User CP thing is moot.

Yep, I went through to that and read some of it and got my answer there. I'm just over halfway to that, so yeah... I'll get it sooner or later. ^_^

I guess so.


SO, which sections count towards the post count?
Or if there are less sections that don't, I'd like a list of those.

 

[Pelafina]

Foyer and Forum Insanity do not count posts.

Everything else is fair game.

 

[Lycanthrope]

I believe everything but the Foyer and Forum Insanity count toward your post count.

OK, thanks. It's good to know the best places to post for "fair game" stuff.
