    What's the right proportion between Post Count and Rep?

    Should a poster have, like, 500 rep points per every 1,000 posts?

    If someone has MORE than that... Is that like the Rep version of obesity?

    Is someone with very little rep the equivalent of Anorexic?

    Who can provide a brief rep tutorial here?

    And btw... you might consider repping me for bringing up such an excellent topic. :lol:

      I have no idea how the rep system works. But I would like to.

        You would think the posting of a dancing clown with a ventriloquist monkey singing White Wedding in front of a ra pe van would garner much rep, but no.

          .500 is a bit high, the ideal rep average is .396. You see, .396 shows a perfect balance between laugh out loud drive by posts and the witty banter of game day threads. Such perfect rep averages are rare (outside of methology) but if you come across one, the poster should be heavily repped.

          Rep whore.
