Okay, now I'm confused- how does someone give you a gray dot? I got a gray dot from this thread, but when I give rep all I get are the approve or disapprove choices... no neutral. Does that mean someone was going to give rep but then decided not to?
Maybe it means the positive and negative rep you've received are equal? Like 2 positive, 2 negative?

I received a grey dot as well, and am likewise confuzzled.

I think if the person who is giving bad rep to you has way less rep than you do, it comes out as a grey dot. Likewise, if someone with 10 green dots gives a person with one green dot good rep, it counts for more than if someone with one or two greens gave good rep to the same person.
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
I think rep is just screwed up anyway. Some people are going to be jerks and give you bad rep just because they don't like you, and friendly people will give good rep just because they do like you; regardless of whether they agree or disagree with your post. Kinda meaningless, which is why mine is still disabled.

, negative 
or neutral 
. Negative reputation may only be given if the administrator has enabled this. Neutral reputation is only given when the person giving reputation does not meet the criteria set by the administrator to affect someone else's reputation.(Source)
On a funny side note, this post:

I never realized people felt that strongly about McAfee one way or the other.

Blah.
I shall just take all the koolkids hostage. For every day that I do not get a new green dot I will put out a minimum of 10 of my extremely long, opinionated and anal posts that you guys adore so much.

I have used Mcafee's for years with absolutely no problems. I have it on all 4 of my pc's. I don't feel strongly one way or another about it, I use it because its familiar and simple.| I never realized people felt that strongly about McAfee one way or the other. |
I have heard many people say it sucks or say its basically a virus. I think its all about what you do as an individual online. I am not a big web surfer, I have a few trusted sites such as my bank, companies I pay bills with, amazon.com etc that I use. I send/receive a lot of emails, and use messenger alot for work stuff. My work sites which are of course secure sites. So for someone like me who isn't out discovering each and every dark and scary crack and crevice of the internet daily...it works. People that are more aggressive on the internet, might need something else.
While I have never had a bad experience with Mcafees , I did have a horrible experience with Norton's. It seemingly threads itself through your entire system and was taking my computer hostage. Some people might like it, though. Personally I found it to be restrictive and too "secure", even when toning down the settings.

I've actually had those problems with both Norton and McAfee personally, but I really don't feel strongly about either one to be honest. I just find that when I'm helping people troubleshoot things and they have McAfee (or Norton) installed its the culprit a solid majority of the time in cases like this.|

Fwiw, I don't even run an anti-virus, but that's not something I would recommend.

I prefer Avast! btw
I am not sure what fixed the problem exactly but its fixed. I played with my Mcafee settings, upgraded to the newest Firefox and tiddled around a bit in control panel and came back and now I can see it. So ty for all that helped.
*btw I am hurt that I only have 1 green dot, apparently I am not a koolkid :-(
*tries to +rep. gets "you've given out too much rep in the last 24 hours"*
I'll catch you next week, or maybe Bronx can shuttle a few your way.
