Reputation bottles?

[Jack I]

Those reputation bottles are exactly as you said mate, reputation bottles. They're part of are reputation system here on POF, which you can read about extensively in this helpful guide. (Or below, as I have quoted the section pertaining to Reputation.)

RULES: Only give reputation if you find the post helpful, not as something to do for a friend.

A small change to what the guide says, you can add to a users rep by pressing this button: Also, we only allow users to give positive reputation, and only Evil Kid Bugs has negative reputation... silly little rabbit. Lastly, it should be noted that there are a few rules about reputation, which although are rarely an issue, go for all of the sites.

Rules for Reputation
"Reputation System Misuse" - The Reputation system allows our members to leave comments about one anothers posts, and thereby contribute to their overall 'reputation'. The following uses of the Reputation System on this site are not allowed:

Reputation Fraud: Creating multiple accounts to give positive reputation to other members or your own account. Soliciting other members/friends to give mass positive reputation to your account or another user's account is also fraud.

Reputation Comments: Giving personal information through reputation comments or trolling/flaming. Our policies still apply for reputation comments and will be dealt with the same as if their comments were PMed to a user. If you obtain any reputation comments that violate any of our policies, then you should contact a mod about this immediately.

Reputation Begging: The act of requesting reputation from other users is called reputation begging. This also includes Signatures, Titles, PM's, posts containing requests or encouragement to give you or another user positive or negative reputation points.

Reputation Bribery: The act of requesting reputation in trade for something is called reputation bribery.

Reputation Pity: The act of posting sad comments about their reputation so other users feel sorry for them so that they will give them reputations is called pity reputation.
