I'm with YB, it's still weak sauce. I am not ashamed to admit that my REP on Jazzfanz is pretty damn important to me.

To be honest I really do not know why I am on top of the rep rankings. It frankly surprised me Trout when you negged me so I wouldn't pass up you and YB. I had no idea what you were talking about.

I really don't care what Colton and Jason's rep powers are. They run the site, they have a vested interest and give of their time and resources, so I am ok with whatever they choose to do with it. I think it would be fun to set a formula and just let it go, see how high the rep powers can go. Let the top guys get to 20, then tweak, just for a while. But it really doesn't bother me when it gets tweaked, it is just fun to bug Colton about it. :)

But I will admit, it makes me feel pretty good to see my name on top of the rep list. I know it is an internet forum and in the grand scheme of things really doesn't mean anything, but I think it is kind of cool nonetheless.
 
Let me see if I understand this. Every time loggrad passes Colton and Jason, everybody else gets knocked back a notch?

I call shenanigans. Shenanigans!
 
So why does the number of days, you have been a member mean more, then your total number of Rep points readers have given you?

It doesn't. Most people (at the high end of reputation scale, anyway) get more rep power points through their reputation than they do through their number of days.
 
I am not trying to nit pick. But the changes to the rep system are far more annoying than having members having tons of power. I have never cared a great deal about rep power or rep. However everytime it changes I care even less.

I mostly leave rep to prop up a post I agree with or to give a statement to the person by leaving the rep. I check my rep to see what type of posts are liked by the board and to see who agrees with me. I think it would be far more interesting and helpful if the rep power of everybody on the board was a 1 and that it never changed. Maybe with a way to earn the power so every brand new poster did not automatically get rep.

Anyway mostly just suggestion. I think the rep was an interesting add to the board.

This may be the wrong place to put this but it would also be interesting to me to see the rep made public below the post. Even if it's just a count of + and -. With rep power not being effected it would be almost like having a poll on every post. Probably not possible but it would be interesting.
