Still beating a dead horse eh?
Until
gods of FAKKU decide in their divine wisdom that the rep count should account for something other than the size of our E-penis or..E-tits (for the ladies out there) it's just a number.
Sure everybody likes it when their rep goes up. It shows you are doing something that makes the community a little better. Though having it account for something would be nice. A suggestion would be "Get X rep then get something in return" *cough* Fakku Shirt *cough*. Though it would be amusing to have a FAKKU shirt with a line saying "My E-penis is bigger than yours". It's hardly a serious suggestion.
I won't talk about rep log since Raze killed the idea and threw it's corpse into a incinerator (after roughing it up a bit both pre and postmortem). Though this may not be true for others. I wouldn't care who de-repped me as long as I knew why. Which leads me to giving "reasons" when you rep someone. Though with Admin already having access to a pseudo-rep long to prevent abuse kind of ruins that argument. Maybe go with Whitelion's idea of removing -rep but, still the point remains that it's just a number. Also as G-money pointed out even people with negatives can suddenly swing into the positives even though their attitude obviously never warrants a +rep. Which is evidence that even some people who "don't care" actually do care about their rep.
If I could make any serious suggestion about the actual function of the site I would humbly request that people with X-rep can have custom titles again.
