No it doesnt it only shows what post they repped you on and what comments they left but your score doesnt change. It may have something to do with posts but im not sure.

I figured it out. SmurFit you need 100 posts before the rep will show up. Thats what it is. Let me look back but im almost positive thats why its not showing up yet.

No biggie. You need to hit 100 invisible before you get anouther tic tac and then 100 after that for each other tic tac. Tic tacs are just cool looking they dont do anything for you. The rep power is the only thing that matters

For SmurFit here is the post from robwahoo (admin) earlier in the thread. You need 50 posts before you can receive your rep. I highlighted it in Red for ya.



The following are the current settings for the rep system. If people want to propose different setting than I would suggest working with TOOL to come up with proposed new settings and then we will change them.


Default Reputation
What reputation level shall new users receive upon registration? Make sure that you have a reputation level that is at least equal to or less than this value.

0



Reputation Undefined
If you have any user gain a reputation that exceeds your lowest negative level, then this phrase will be used for them. If you do not wish to use this phrase, make sure you set a negative reputation that is larger than the largest score (negative) that a user on your forum has.

is off the scale


Number of Reputation Ratings to Display
Controls how many ratings to display in the user's control panel.

10



Administrator's Reputation Power
How many reputation points does an administrator give or take away with each click?

10


Register Date Factor
For every X number of days, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
365

Post Count Factor
For every X number of posts, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
1000



Reputation Point Factor
For every X points of reputation, users gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
100


Minimum Post Count
How many posts must a user have before his reputation hits count on others?
50


Minimum Reputation Count
How much reputation must a user have before his reputation hits count on others?
10


Daily Reputation Clicks Limit
How many reputation clicks can a user give over each 24 hour period? Administrators are exempt from this limit.
10


Reputation User Spread
How many different users must you give reputation to before you can hit the same person again? Administrators are exempt from this limit.
20
