Every user on the Zen Discussion Message Forum has a green reputation bar associated with their user.

Reputation points are awarded/subtracted to users by simply clicking on the icon located below their avatar (see above image). If you liked someone's post, click the reputation button and show your appreciation. If you hated someone's post, do likewise. Your reputation power is proportional to your own reputation, so that the vote of a highly regarded user wields more influence than that of a newbie.

Members with the highest amount of positive reputation points will be eligible to receive cash prizes. The better your rep, the more you'll get paid. In addition, whoever has the most positive rep at the end of the year will receive the Zen Master title. The Zen Master gains Moderator status as well as access to exclusive profile customization options and a professionally designed signature by resident artist, CK.

Membership is only $10!
