The next post on the same thread has 76 posts and has a rep power of 9 as well.
That is awesome - that's an average of just 8 posts per rep point. Well done, I'll be looking out for those posts in future - they must be really worth reading.
SD, you're averaging only 4633 posts per rep point - you have some catching up to do.
Well, the system is probably a product of Canuck math like yours, bl .... how the heck do you figger a jump from 3 to 4 is double? Sheez, kids these days ....
It is a popularity contest as clearly some have made a lot of posts of no real value and others with the same rep have posted things of great value to the community
They had to take away the ability to give negative rep because of the problems that caused when clicks of people disliked someone's different opine and ganged up to turn there rep -RED
Rep (Reputation) Power has only to do with the little 'scale' that's displayed in the top right hand corner of the post and whether or not someone clicks on it and Adds to your 'Rep Power'. You can be here for years and have 100,000 posts but until someone clicks on your Rep Power and rates you, you'll have no Rep Power.
The last time anyone gave ME any rep was back in 2008!
Sniff...*sniff*.. nobody loves me...
