I'm kinda straddling the fence on this one...
I bet 99% of the members here may post 2-3 threads during their membership at CF, most of them join and post because they are having computer problems so rep isn't a big deal to them, they just want answers. The regular posting members who answer their questions get to know each other and have a pretty good idea of how much the other regular posting members know about computers. So rep isn't really needed as small a community of posting members we have here. Thelis or Muz don't need 9 bars of rep for Me or Freestyler105 to know "hey they know about computers!", we can tell by the quality of their posts. But on the other hand I gotta admit it is pretty fun to get repped and it's kinda a neat feature in the forums.
I wouldn't be upset if David and the mods saw it in the forums best interest to scrap the rep system, maybe it'll speed the site up. And possibly lead to new features being implemented on the forums. But I also wouldn't be upset if they choose to keep it.
