Question: About reputation-altering power

When you give negative reputation, the number of points taken are half of your reputation-altering power.

Directly quoted. If this is true, then what happens when my reputation-altering power is an odd number?


Another question is involving this:

• For every 100 days you're a member, you gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
• For every 500 posts, you gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.
• For every 30 points of positive reputation you have, you gain 1 point of reputation-altering power.

By the ways, before I say this, I request admins of any sort to not disclose my reputation or my reputation-altering power here.
If this is how reputation-altering power is given, then I should get 1 point for my number of posts being higher than 500.
I've been a member here for over 275 days, and that should get me 2 more points, should it not?
And finally, I have a positive reputation over 30 points, so shouldn't I have more reputation-altering power than what I have now?

you get 1 point per 500 posts, so you only have 1 point for that and again if you have 30 rep points, you get 1 extra point per 30 points etc. So in total you have like 4 points? unless you have 60+ points

and if I recall, if it's an odd number it either rounds to the closet number, not sure really

The rounding off method doesn't make sense. What if I have 9 rep altering power?
A neg rep would half it, therefore it would be 4.5. Then what would be the actual rep deducted? 4 or 5?

It would probably round off to 5 points

Good to know. I'm somewhat happy seeing it removed.
