    Brandir says thank you to Brandir for this useful post....

    Does having mad Rep mean anything? I guess I treat Thanks as the equivalent of the Facebook “Like” feature. I’m sure that’s not how it’s intended to be used, but that’s how I see it used most often.

    I’ve seen more than a couple of people practically beg for it, like they’re going to be excommunicated if they don’t get their Rep up. Does it actually mean anything outside of the personal warm fuzzy feeling of knowing that someone paid attention to you? That sounded less crappy in my head. I mean, is there any consideration for it other than personal?

    Is Rep used for anything like determining whether someone gets an infraction, or a temporary/permanent ban, is asked to be a Mod, etc?
    Adversity does not build character, it reveals it
