There are several posts that give information on point count and rep levels early in this thread. If you go back and skim the first few pages (before it turned into a rep chat), you should find it.

Raynor has just left Hobbiton.
Today I have many reasons to celebrate; I just came home from a party with the workmates and I also received a very interesting job proposal; but I knew it was a great day when I saw I passed the 1000 mark in under 100 posts/60days (repdrunk could hardly describe my feelings ). I would like to warmly thank all the members who appreciated my posts. As I have confessed in private, I consider the level of Tolkien discussions in this site to be one of the highest around, and the people are just great. Really glad to be here.

I must say I'm a bit repdrunk too - I was only a day or two away from the 'downs and I've got four new reps and ~200 new rep points and all from different threads! Thank you all!

EDIT: I've passed BW and pio on the members by reputation list! maybe I have to rep them only for that. Or just for being great...

What fun! I log on this morning and found I have been given three reps, on three different posts, overnight!

Thank you all!

Thank you, one and all! After many delays, and a sad mishap with my luggage, I am now bound for the Straight Road!

The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!
White-Hand

The original purpose of this thread was for people to post FAQs about the Rep system. There has been some interesting and instructive discussion since on various aspects of it.

However, recently (and despite the best efforts of littlemanpoet and those who responded to his questions to raise the level of the discussion) it has become little more than a facility for members to publicise the reps that they have received or the rep levels that they have achieved.

Quite apart from the comments made by Mithalwen and pio about the confidential (or at least two-way) nature of the rep system, which I wholly endorse, it's all becoming rather (to adopt Mith's excellent expression) unseemly.

I believe that this is a trend which we should look to curtail.
