Thanks so much, Adam! ... And I thought I had 0 rep power, when I actually have 1.

I understand the theoretical value of a rep, but in reality does anyone care when they get an answer to their question? Maybe I am the only one that never checks a poster's rep score when viewing their pic, buying a lens or trying something they recommend to fix an issue I am having.

In contrast, a Marketplace score of 15/100% gives me a warm and fuzzy versus a zero when sending real money to a total unknown.

I hope the rep system does not take a lot of effort to maintain for SYSADMIN and Mods.

It seems it would be more beneficial if our rep system worked more like a 'thanks' system- I may, therefore, change it later down the road so that everyone's reputation power is only 1. But no, it's not biggie to maintain- its introduction took some effort, but now it's on autopilot.
