Question on the Rep System

[Cymae]

Q: I got a single rep, but my number went up (or down) by more than one? What's going on?

Because users with a high count obviously are doing something right, they have a little more pull when it goes to hand out the points.
For every 80 rep points they receive, their rep power goes up by 1. So at 81 rep points they received, their vote is worth 2 points, at 161 rep points received, their vote is worth 3 points and so on.
When the Admin team give out a rep, it have a rep power of 5, so a postive from them will increase your rep by 5 points, and a negative will decrease your reputation by 5.

According to this, rep point power goes up by 1 every 80 points, and admins give 5 points. That being said, what about admins who have 481+ rep? Do they give out 6 rep points or 5? What about regular members with over 481 rep. Do they give out more than 5 points or is there a cap?

I'm just curious

Is there a way to find out how much rep you give?

I think only Admins can see what the rep power is.. As far as I know there isnt a cap on rep power that I have seen. I know there are several members that have a 11+ rep power. As for Admins.. they don't ever increase or decrease in rep power.. its always 5 unless we change it in the admin panel.

So an admin with 11rep point power can only give out 5?

That kinda stinks

Yes, they only give out 5, unless they want to change it in the control panel. I know that I give out at least 10 right now.

Yes there is. I provide a service that does this for free !!! Yes !! free, not a cent, gratis, gratuit, nada.

When you see me online send me a pm. I'll check my rep points then you rep me and I check again. I even go to the trouble of doing the math
