For example,take away all my reputation. No one will listen to me. Then give me 300 reputation points,and people will worship me. But did I change? No,just my reputation...

That's an exaggeration.

The idea behind reputation is that it servers as a quick, crude indication of a poster's quality. So far this seems to work, more or less, as people who generally contribute useful content have a high reputation, and those who are rude or break the forum rules (and have been banned before) often have lower reputation. People are obviously free to read a post regardless of the poster's reputation; it's still their call. You can ignore it as well, if you think it's a stupid feature.

The example you gave, for MrBucket, was - in my opinion - an example of the system working as intended. The guy had just registered, already had negative reputation after only 4 or so posts, so there's a possibility that his future posts are also relatively worthless. If you decide to be selective with regards to what posts you read, then that would be a pretty good choice of criteria for what posts to skip.

Is there a list where we can see who has the biggest reputation?

Stijn Oct 31, 2010 10:00 AM

Nope.

Toni Oct 31, 2010 10:24 AM

is it possible to there be one?

People are going to judge you by your reputation regardless of the reputation system.

Mimmay makes a good point. People will even judge you from your avatar and signature. I know I do sort of. Gives a tiny insight to what sort of person that can be.

dang nabit, didn't even notice the option to enhance somebody's reputation!!
I just thought it goes up with activity:)
That's why I've been stuck at 26!!
Is it my poor manners?
:)

Toni: There's an option on the memberlist search to sort by reputation, but it doesn't seem to work. At least prospectively, though, such a list is possible!

Toni Nov 2, 2010 12:42 PM

Thanks. Is it going to be fixed?

Stijn Nov 2, 2010 12:43 PM

If it's easy to do, maybe. I'll put it on the ever growing todo list.
