what are REP points and how do you get them

[Idiens]

See the little pair of scales on the top right hand side of each message block.

Click on that and you can give or take REPutation points of other posters.

You can't give yourself any, but your dad should give you some.

Fred,
The best way to get "Rep Points" is to tell about an event that actually happened to you, something you know about really well.

In your case, it might be by talking about your last race. What the wind and seas were like, how the course was set up, and how you sailed it. You could then tell us what you did right and what you think you might have done wrong, and what you're thinking about trying next time.

Then we can all share in your experience and learn from you. Thankyou for asking.

Fred -- I gave you a point also. Just not sure how they add up for the number shown for a person. Seems to be a mystery of Sailnet.

There is no real reason for rep points. Just ask your father what he has done to earn his!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
