I see it as a motivation to post well. Although I was never one for internet points, it's still a fun thing.

Meanwhile I'm going to use this as an opportunity to post swage.

That gif makes my nuts hurt.

Maybe take away all of its non-fun related functions, and it'd be just fine.

I didn't realise people were muted by reputation.

I'd think so. It's more of a circlejerk thing than a reputation thing by this point. Not to mention the fact that now it serves a purpose other than "just for fun" (users being muted based on reputation).

There's not a mute function yet, so right now it is just for fun. Once I'm done tinkering with the formula, the feature will probably be added.

As it is now, the Trust system is completely different than it was when the forum started. It's not merely adding the plus and the minus trust together anymore. The "Muted" rating is going to be much harder to reach than DeeJ, as I've said before; and since there's only one or two members with that title, I'm not sure what your argument is.

Out of curiosity, does anyone up vote mods even though it doesn't affect their title?

I think it's a wildly overrated function.

I still downvote Kiyo even though it means nothing.
Just satisfies me somehow.

Kiyo is cute though.

Maybe in the way a mako shark is cute... I never try to take her seriously, yet somehow I can never bring myself to completely like her.
