Hi welcome to Fish Lore
It just lists you as a newbie to Fish Lore, not fish keeping

Here's a couple of links to answer your questions.
Reputation System
Stars increase with the amount of posts you have.

thank you both for your help

i think you may need to have 50 posts before you can give reputation

Lucy

Your welcome! Enjoy the forum.

Yep, that's right. I don't think you can see the rep symbol to give points until you have 50 posts.

Alex, are we following each other around today? lol

50 posts to have rep giving privledges. Jonah's right, once kate logs out and comes back, she'll be able to give rep points.
Guess it gives the system a chance to catch up.
