A member's rating is the average rating (from 1-5) received from fellow members of the community. It is a good indicator of a member's value to the community.
Members are credited with points related to their activity on AGORACOM. Points can be earned and lost for a plethora of activities around the site. The more positive contributions you make to the AGORACOM community, the more activity points you will earn.
They are important because the combination of these two metrics will determine your rank within the AGORACOM community. Your rank determines which functions you can perform within AGORACOM, which includes the ability to do things such as delete offending messages, delete offending members, update vital company information in real-time – and many more cool things.
Your vote is the rating you have given to a specific member. It is combined with all votes from the community to determine a member’s average rating. You can change your vote at any given time if you feel the member has become more or less valuable to the community. All votes are anonymous, so be responsible with your votes as it will impact the quality of your community in the future. Cast your vote based on quality of information, not the buddy system. You can not vote for yourself.
