@merej99 From what I've read. And Reputation of 7 is 100x Stronger than a Reputation of 6, so it might take some time.
You need users with more voting power than yourself to upvote your content. The more of these users vote on your posts, the higher your reputation score goes.
Pretty sure @dantheman wrote an loose explanation on his blog recently...
its a log 10 scale. like the richter scale. So a score of 7 is 10x greater than a 6, not 100x, iiuc
There's an actual exact number in your steemd profile at the bottom. AFAICT, you need around 100 trillion to be a 7, and 1 quadrillion to be an 8.
Thanks for that @sigmajin. Just read through the @dantheman post, https://steemit.com/steemit/@dantheman/brief-update-on-reputation-score Was about to EDIT but you get their before me.
