I don't see the point in another button. I really don't pay attention to the green bar. I look at how many post the person has. My rep power is a one right now and I couldn't really care. I'm not on here to earn a pat on the back. I'm here to vent, share my opinion, and hopefully learn something new. As a fairly newbie myself I still get quite a bit of pm's asking for advice. I'm new here not to the animal world.
