oddss defines reputation
We're on social networks
We have a digital representation - it has online value
It's a reflection of what others think of you; value of those contributions
You can influence it; it is a product of your actions
Members should pay attention to it

Discussion
Jason Cao: Making your profile visible is a good distinction between brand and reputation...
Jason Cao: a visible profile supports branding ourselves, whereas contributing to the community and sharing our knowledge improves our reputation.
Q&A
Ervin: are there more missions?
Audrey will be writing a blog post today - missions and badges for SAP TechEd attendees
Ervin: Today we have Karma points; are you looking into a reputation score?
Audrey: looking into those things; can't comment on those things
Ervin: Rewarding answer accepted, any chance of rewarding those who accept the button? Easy to misuse the system; more use the accept button
Audrey: Issue with using accepted answers with mission - too much noise in the past; looking at good behavior encouraged without encouraging cheating

Their journey to Member of the Month
Matt is joining from a Peru film shoot
Q: How did your journey with SAP community begin? Consume or lurk?
A: Matt: never posted, just searched for years. Doesn't recommend waiting that long
2015 - ran into an unusual problem, found an answer, didn't see anything published anywhere on it, and then wrote a blog post on the Community
Started answering questions
Barbel- mostly lurking, trouble with workflow, posted a question, someone suggested she write blog posts
Sharath - similar suggestion, fear of first post
Jason Cao:
@Sharath_vuppula, coupled with fear is courage to overcome this fear. Great achievement and role model for those in our community to find courage.
Q: How get past fear of first post?
A: Sharath - checked that his content wasn't already written
Reassured by comments and views
Matt - now a moderator
Jason Cao: Our moderators are our community's unsung heroes. Big thanks to this group of dedicated members.
Q: What are their favorite activities, where do they find the time?
A: Sharath - love blogging, tries to answer questions more, better contact for the person
Barbel - only became active a few months ago; a community member suggested to her that she blog; getting encouragement
Matt - saw that other people may need, and it is not documented anywhere
Matt - in the missions for the fun; didn't think beyond that; growth of reputation was organic
Q: Benefits of building reputation?
A: Barbel: Try to focus on sharing; likes interacting with online global communities
Matt: met people in the community
Sharath: humbling to connect to community, opportunity to learn more and network
Q: Recommendations?
A: Barbel - read rules of engagement and follow them. Read blog post/topic and interact with it
Sharath - look through network to see if content is there already; be respectful in approach with community
Matt - treat people nicely; it will grow organically
