I don't understand what the green dot thing is near our names (the reputation). What does it mean? What does it do?? I moused over mine and it said, "Jchen is on a distinguished road." What in the world does that mean?? And why does some people have two? And what does it mean by adding to "jchen"'s reputation?? :confused::confused::confused::confused:

Reputation is earned, awarded to you by other members. They can add to or subtract from your reputation (they can also choose to be neutral and not award any reputation). A member can also leave comments as to why they added/subtracted reputation. To do this, they click on the 'balance' icon on one of your posts.
You have one green box for reputation points 1-99. You get another green box for points 100-199. The 'is on a distinguished road' blurb changes as you get more reputation points.
Have a look at this post (http://forums.tomisimo.org/showpost.php?p=13607&postcount=6) from Tomísimo for more information.

Your Spanish isn't that bad. I don't see a reason to use sobre, because that is part of meaning of the verb saber (to know about something). Many native speakers would argue for a direct object pronoun.

Rusty, if he was to lliterally translate .... I didn't know about this..... he is correct in saying: No sabía sobre esto.
No:?::confused:

I'm sorry everyone, I still don't understand the reputation thing.
I see I have 13 points of "reputation" or something.
What is that supposed to mean??
:confused:
WAIT!!
My head just exploded.
Now I got it!!
Okay, I got it. People, please add, and not subtract to my reputation!! :) :) ^^

Yes, but a literal translation is seldom the correct way to say something in Spanish, or vice versa. ;)

I have to disagree with you on this one......
Working as an interpreter/translator, sometimes it is required that you do literal translations. You cannot add or subtract or manipulate a translation. Of course, depending on where, who, what, why and how come.
