What is a reputation comment?

I keep getting them, and then when I click on it, it just takes me to a list of threads that I have posted in.

 

I KNOW, RIGHT?!?
That happens to me so much it gets annoying, I just to see the (*)(*)(*)(*) comments.

 

Go to 'Settings' to see all the comments. If the user doesn't leave a comment, you will just see a link to the post you were repped for.

 

For some reason I keep clicking on Like This Post and it almost never works. Do you know why???

 

I'm finding a couple for 'Settings' to click on, but I still can't seem to find the reps. Can anyone help?
I did find 'Show Reputation Level, but that appears to have nothing to do with letting me see any comments.

 

Click on "my control panel" and then scroll down when the page comes up. It should list all they reps you have received.

 

Thanks, Got it!

 

When do we get paid? I've yet to get a check in the mail. Is it yearly?
