Why does there seem to be 2 rankings

[doctor.j]

i know about rep and how it works, but is there another ranking for like how many posts or something like that, i have a stranger rank on both of mine but i notice some people with the same for both, and some people with 2 different ones.

sry im just a noob, but i really like this site and want to know everything i can about it seeing as how im going to be using it almost daily

you work up from being a stranger by the number of posts you make. not sure, but i believe the second stranger rating is something that can be changed manually if you are an elite member.

Its all down to the rep you get from different users as everyone has a different impact on your rep dependent on their ranking. Post counts also are a factor to consider.
(keep going + good luck).

You have to reach 50 posts before your rep will have an impact on anybody.
I got your rep and it gave me no points but i will return it and hopefully get you a few points.

THANKS.
