thanks a bunch!

I don't think i've got any either!! What are they for and how do you get them? I've cliked onto User Contol Panel and the page is blank, do i have to click on anything else or would it show if i had any??

Thanks,

Lucy xx

When you click on the user control panel scroll down and any rep points you've had will be listed along with the name of the person who gave them to you and why.
Rep points are given for many reasons, usually for a good point made or for being helpfull.

If you think someone has been helpful and given some good advice then you can click the little green box on the right of the thread.
If you want to report someone then you can click the red box.
Everytime someone gives you a rep you get extra little blue boxes, also on the right of your thread reply.
It's just a way for people to say thanks when someone has been helpful.

Some of the info is slightly different but you'll get the general idea
