A Question About Reputation - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The only thing I can say right now is a double-edged sword - the way I see it, anyway: not all reps are given for scholarly merit. I'm sure it's safe to say that some BDers rep people for something "extra" in their posts - a personal thing, perhaps, or the location or the siggie or something else. In that sense it's not exactly a very trustworthy gauge of experience, at least in my opinion.
