I always thought the "scale" was an intake valve with wings. It never looked like a scale to me. Maybe the word "comments" would have made me figure it out sooner too.
Then again, I only use 1% of my brain anyway.
Keep up the good work everyone.

You get a neutral from someone who is too new to be considered important by FTE's standards. If you get a rep from someone with alot of posts, or alot of green dots, or a moderator, the rep points go up considerably. I got 10 at once one time from a moderator. Or, you can get a neutral if you are left a positive without a comment.

thanks Kris, I was worried that I had given out a neutral, what does bother me though, I am unable to give out any rep points to most of the guys I would choose to, because I have to " spread them around"
