The Reputation System - How, Exactly, Does it Work?

ok so im wondering about the thanks button in the posts. do you ever run out of thanks you can send? all of the sudden for some reason every time i hit the thanks on a post it tells me i do not have permission but then i can still make the personal thanks with a coment? why would this be?

Yes, you can. I've done it multiple times, although I don't think we're supposed to. I just talk that much.

Every once in a while, I'll get a glitch like that too. I'll be able to do one or the other but not both. I've learned that if I want to thank AND leave a rep, I need to rep the person first, then click the thanks button. It won't work the other way.
