That said, I think the system works. The people whose posts I typically enjoy seem to have a higher reputation than others.
I actually understand only the logic of the last sentence and not really agree with it. Although, let's say the system works. My true goal isn't prooving it doesn't. I'm only noticing those "people don't appreciate my posts" guys. Everyday you can hear that the community and JJ2 are dying but you're just giving people a next reason to leave or stop the activity. You're discussing every feature you want to put to the game itself to ensure it won't kill it, and a while later you're easily adding a whole new kind of ranking to the forums.

cooba already explained it to me few times. I still don't see any part of it which would make it an argument to keep the system.
