I think a reputation is bad.

My aunt used to have a reputation ..... but when she starting making money selling other things it sort if went away on its own.
 
You can keep it on the users' profile pages for those who care about it, just remove from it from under the avatars please :)

Hahahahah - sorry about the third person there - virgin reputation giver - had no idea that the comment would go directly to you :o
 
Liking a post is a far better mechanism. I'm surprised anybody would go with a rep system these days. But that's just me.

I agree - for a few reasons.

1: Reduces people responding with comments like "+100000" - If its a popular opinion then the response will show.
2: In the forums where people are asking for help then its a great way to show which posts are helpful.
3:Gives public recognition of your contribution and shows who is abusing the system.
 
A reputational endorsement is only as good as the reputation of the endorser.

Zuma gets a hundred thumbs-up from his pals. What a great reputation!

If you're going to have a Reputation system, then make the Reputation clickable so one can see who endorsed the person.

Otherwise it's pretty pointless, serving only to introduce a needless and pointless hierarchy.

I concur with this.
