However, all these threads about rep do nothing other than bring attention to the rep system. As I've stated before, once all the little kids get banned/bored and we start getting more mature members, things will die down a lot (rep system wise). Rep doesn't mean anything, it's just a number. If you really care about a little reputation point on an internet forum from someone you will never meat that probably lives in a different country than you, then you really need to re-evaluate your priorities.
Good post. I agree.
But to be totally honest i think it is still getting abused (the rep system) and i feel scrapping it would be best.
For me i have always liked the thanks option. Giving thanks for specific threads or posts. But either way it all can be screwed with i guess.
Must admit though the rep system has given me a few giggles i otherwise would not have had so i guess thats a plus.
