i wanna say it's because you have so few posts.....  although, i'm not quite sure what it means..... i know "he who shall not be named" had a dozen red squares.... however, upon further research, mr coolcats himself has 1 black square.....  that can't be good, and he's super sweet:kissass: :catbang:

Yea bro I dont seem to notice anyone butting heads with you at all (though I know ahts going on about as much as your average zombie :hick:  ) but a suggestion....you might want to PM a mod about these kinds of things instead of making threads.

i can only guess that your reputation has something to do with you not using the search function when making threads or posts.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Yeah... I DO see a lot of new threads you. 12 of your 65 posts are new threads, that's around 18%.  Take, for example a well-established, well-respected (check out his green boxes) member like 1WLDBRD... 189 out of 2k+... that's about 9%.  Just an example. The search feature here is excellent, make some more use of it.  You actually could have searched and found out how the reputation system works instead of posting this.

Just going by what I've seen the past few weeks I'd say it's a result of your consistently posting new threads in the wrong sections (as an example, this very thread should have been in the lounge [actually, it should never have been in a public forum at all], not the "General 83-88 T-Bird/Cougar information" section), constantly posting in but offering nothing to a thread, and quite often offering wrong or misleading information entirely. Asking questions that have been answered a million times before doesn't help.

The red dot is part of the "reputation" system. Every user has the ability to leave you either positive, negative, or neutral "rep points" based on the quality of your posts. It would appear that somebody left you some negative shiznit. You can see who did it and why in your profile (and you are the only one who can see it).

You can also opt out of the rep system entirely. It's an option in your profile settings. If you opt out you'll see a black or dark grey dot.

Love to know why a n00b thinks he's got the right to "rant and rave" within his first 2 weeks here. Most existing members don't even have the guts to do that. Besides, we should be a little resentful with the way you've disrespected the establishment. We're not liars; why do you feel the need to ask us for "the truth"? It's hard to call us "friends" when all you've done so far is litter threads with incoherent babble.

Listen, we appreciate your enthusiasm. You're just not going about things the correct way. That's why we have established rules (as found just a few posts above this one, here: http://www.foxtbirdcougarforums.com/showthread.php?t=2).

Future "rants" aren't going to be permitted. The only reason that anyone has responded to this one is to set the record straight. Now you have your answers and know where you stand...move along, move along....

your not the first , you wont be the last.  I should have all the red dots but i dont for some odd reason.

just throttle back and troll through all the stuff about your car and collect the information so you can use it.  share what you find or learn.

You don't because you actually offer useful information to the aero fox community...

Who cares what people think,if you've got the time to be loser enough(and COWARDLY enough,as i can't see who left me bad rep points so we can have it out face to face)then you have issues.
I could care less what people think of me,don't like my comments,O-WELL go cry to someone else,Always up for a battle lol).
I turned my rep points off(sick and tired of the losers),those who really know me on this board know that i can be an ass but am usually pretty helpfull and willing to help.
Don't sweat it man,the only problem i have with you is your spelling,just try to re read your posts and edit them before posting.
Some of your stuff is really hard to read,and no, being a country boy is no excuse for bad spelling.
