what is trust ? what is reputation ? where to find it ?
well those things get explained here
if you see under my name , you see status bar that on hover says XX xp
also you see a Trust number
this number presents your level
how more posts you make , how more exp you get
how more exp you get how more trust you “earn”
so if you got 10 trust , then others knows that you can be trusted
but if you got only 1 trust ? then you are just new or barely on the forum
Then you got Reputation
that part can be seein when you click on my name
then on my profile you see at top that it says Reputation
Reputation is the amount of likes/dislikes you got
based on the posts you make you get reputation , a big reputation means that you also know where you talk about
but a low reputation or a negative reputation … well that means you dit not proved yourself yet
on this way is it possible that users that do not post mutch still can get a lot of reputation and proofs that he knows what he is talking about
as trust is not everything , so reputation and trust run together
if both of them are high , then it is a respected member of the community
if reputation is bad but trust is high , then it is some one who talk a lot on the forum but dit not help that many people yet
if trust is low and reputation is high , then he provided probably some good help , as reputation is based on likes
You also earn trust by selecting the accepted answer , on topics you can select best answer
why not only in certain topics ? because on every topic you could have a best answer, and solving a problem is where the forum is for and where you get trust for 😀
later on you also get differend colors and badges based on the trust level and reputation level you have
you will find those also back on your profile page and on the profile page of other members
