I am sick and tired of seeing so many users with tons of rep. Giving and getting rep on FK is so easy and it's a problem. I was on the FK long before the DB reset and I had managed to get 1,000+ rep. Not a big deal, but I got it from giving rep to get rep. Also known as Rep4Rep.
Now, after the reset, I didn't give a shit about my amount of rep. I just happen to get rep from other users. I do so happen to give users rep back after they rep me just because I feel bad for them. I can't remember the last time I gave a user rep thinking they would rep me back. I know that I am a trusted user but my rep has nothing to do with how "trusted" I am. The big deal here is that rep is handed out so freely that no matter how trusted a user is, they can get enough rep to appear trusted.
This thread is more of a rant than anything else but I would also like to make a suggestion.
@Philly or @"Narc", I think that you guys should discuss limiting the amount times any user may give rep per day. There is an option under usergroups in the Admin Panel that you can use to limit a groups rep limit per day.
So, all in all, I hope this can be a solution to this problem and to my sanity.
Edit: Sorry in advance if my wording isn't correct or if my sentences don't make much grammatical sense. I am really out of it today.
