Purple dots? Never seen such a thing; just green, red, and grey.

i think the purple dots are the neutral reps. i have a purple rep from a while ago. or it could also possibly be a rep point from some one who has 0 visible rep, or maybe even 0 invisible rep.

mine were purple too! right before I did a recalibration, haahaaa

thanks for the link duke nukem
I was just going to post it up for her
The link claymore provided is very helpful if you can weed through it all.
Many of us were into it like little inquisitive psuedo detectives . But much of it has been cleared up now. Not too much of a mystery anymore.

You might also notice your rep power increase with with the addition of more +rep. The more rep you have the more rep you give and or take away. Its for recognition/acknowledgement either good or bad.

If you use ebay its kinda like the feedback function (kinda)
I hope that helps.

Yea i saw that. I actually have talked to him on many different occasions and found that he's really not all that bad like people put him out there as. You guys have your little back and fourth thing but me and him have no issues. I actually enjoy talking to him but thats just me i guess. Im not getting in the middle of it just speaking my peace.
