+-1 reputation

What exactly does this mean? I never managed to get a good explanation for this. Some people have said that it's when someone gives a rep to a post with -1rep. But that is suposed to turn the rep of the post back to zero. Others just get confused and change the topic of the conversation.

So, anyone really knows what it is?

I think it's a kind of glitch. Instead of realizing that +1 rep was given, and -1 rep was given, it doesn't put +1 + (-1) together to = 0, it makes it = +-1.

Not Sure, But I Think Thats When The User Gets A Number Of +Reps And Also -Reps. Meaning That He Got More Than One For The Other. Well... I Dunno.

Oh I remember this. I've gotten one of these but never understood what it meant. My thoughts were the same as your Kuro. Maybe one of the admins can shed some light?

It actually means they have -1 rep for that post. It's a glitch, and like in algebra it means they have +(-1).

I also have seen this, I guess the admins should fix it so when a post does get -rep'd and then +rep'd or vice versa that it should equal zero and nothing should appear on the post.

But don't you agree that it should be fixed?

Well Should Be But Shouldnt There Be Other Things That Must Be Fixed First? Well If There Are.
