    Hey dude, welcome!
    Just remember that XP is directly connected and effected by your reputation score! Good to read how it all works. Anyway, great to have ya!

      I think I'm about to get a bunch of XP from my reputation score. It seems like you accumulate reputation much quicker from posting snaps versus posting comments.

      I'm more of a commenter, so my reputation is creeping up slowly.

        Actually, posting a single comment is worth almost as much XP as posting a link snap. I would argue that sometimes comments require more effort to post than a link. Here is a comparison based on my profile (subject to change based on rep score and level of course):

        Comment = +2490 XP
        Link Snap = +3000 XP

        Oops, misread your comment. Reputation gain is based on the total amount of upvotes minus the total amount of downvotes received over a period of time. I think at the end its about even from a vote generation point of view.
