I see under my name a bunch of white stripes (on the left) and then I notice some other folks have some of those stripes as orange. What's that all about?
 
I asked this question recently and didn't get an answer. Is it possible no one knows?? I thought they might be about the member's activity level on the forum, e.g. number of posts posted. But that's only a guess.
 
I think yellow orange lights are some type of frequency denoting popularity/ posting
a secret society for initiates only, rolls eyes, wink,wink

All rather juvenile
just like having a 'like button' which I think tends to make people rather lazy in thinking & not writing a thought, a comment
but I suppose RFF is trying to become more like the 'rest' on the internet than realizing some of it's past non conformity Beauty.

Every 100 points of reputation gives an orange bar up to ten bars. This is hard coded.

Users earn reputation through likes. The amount of reputation received by a specific like is determined by the Reputation Power of the user giving the like.

Users gain Reputation Power by creating posts, liking posts from other users, length of registration and several other factors. You can adjust Reputation Power under Settings -> Options -> User Reputation Options.

You can set levels of reputation (that affects the wording when the bars are moused over) under User Reputations -> User Reputation Manager.
