    Something that's been bugging me, thoughts?

    So something has been bugging me about this site and I thought I would put it out in public.

    A while ago I saw a thread about someone who thought there should be a "like" button as well as a "thanks" button. This got me thinking. The little green bars that indicate the reputation that we have may be misleading to new comers.

    It seem like the "thanks" button isn't really used as a "hey thanks for the info, it was a big help" button. It's more used like "hey that was hilarious" or "what a clever remark".

    It's fine if you want to do that, which is why I think there needs to be a second button.

    The rep score should be a score voted by others on the site as to the accuracy and validity of an answer to someone else's question. Some new members to this hobby should be able to see that a reputable source has answered their question. Right now if someone answers their question with a high rep score, it could just mean they are a funny person and the advise could be the wrong advise.

    Just thought I'd rant a bit. What are y'alls thoughts on the matter? I'd love to hear opinions.
