SFN Titles and Reputation

[Mrs Zeta]

I am sure this has been discussed before, but being new, can somebody explain why some members are quarks, molecules, protists etc. Are there any criteria one must meet in order to become something? And what influences the Reputation of a member (Neutral, Good etc), is it according to how many posts one makes, or what. Just curious.

It's based on postcount, although moderators and certain other members do have custom user titles.

There's a setup on the bottom right corner of all the posts. If you like the post, push the + button. The more posts that you have that have been +ed, the higher your reputation. You can tell if a post has been +ed by whether or not it has a number in a green background in the bottom right corner.
