My next question is, how well do you think the reputation system functions at distinguishing senior members
Does it have to be a reputation system that identifies the experienced? Couldn't titles/level markers be placed under the names like the personal titles? Given out by the admins to determine ranking based on acheivement/merit to the criteria of the site.
I don't use the rep system to see who the experienced ones are; I look at join date, how many posts and of course being an admin or moderator speaks volumes as to their experience.

I see the rep system as a private way to say something to that poster about what they've written wether scholarly or fun. And let's face it being experienced in something alone doesn't make one good. For example, myself, I am experienced in werewolf games but should have level1 under my name.
