How come some members fall from say 6 light green dots, to say 2 or 3 light green dots?
I have noticed this with a couple of members so far...
Cheers.
They've been bad

I'm not sure they have though . As it seems to have happened with some respected members.
Perhaps posters who disagree can take points away. Not sure how this works but what happens if you disagree with a member's post?
I also noticed another member who has made less than 100 posts but has around 4 light green squares. How is this possible (realistically)? and doesn't this make a bit of a mockery of the M.R.S.?
Yes it does. I don't know who you are referring to but they should be banned immediately, and kicked in the gonads if possible.
I didn't think the post delete facility was available any longer?they also delete many ....seriously, delete many of their posts.

I wasn't referring to you, but now you mention it, you are a PRIME EXAMPLE, of someone who has posted little and earned many reputation points just like the other member who shall obviously remain nameless.
Not that i really give much of a damn, but I find it hard to believe that a member can legitimately earn over 1000 reputation points in just 128 posts - although I am not for one minute suggesting that your posts aren't HIGH QUALITY, or that you are part of a scam, i just find it hard to believe how 128 posts can lead to 1000+ rep. points for any member.

OK as a moderator i will stick my neck out here. I do not think that points should be deductible by members. I think this just breeds contempt and anger. If someone has posted a good post (trading or non_trading related) and other members have found it valuable or amusing then they should vote it as such and no-one should be allowed to remove that kudos.I can't say that I've actually noticed any green dots go awol, I even went through the members list, clicking on likely suspects that may have taken a hit and well no I can't see that anyone I clicked look like they're missing any.
I think the member you may be refereing JT has posted many more posts than is currently shown but deleted almost all at one point as jacinto previously pointed out... reps were probably earned for offsite comms as well as the onsite posts. If this member posts I always take a look with interest.
I agree whole-heartedly with blades and Arb on Spam Mans posts, pure class of the highest order, deserving in every point earned... my particular faves, the classic Joe Ross "Hey Spam Man!" post.

The unforgettable insight in the "...after which things took a turn for the strange" post, in the "how to think correctly" thread. I just p!ssed myself reviewing that one again.
