Here are 2 Ideas relating to the reputation system. One is a simple setting the other isnt as easy to add.

The easy one:
I think it would be nice to see for example the last 15-20 reputation comments in your user control panel instead of the last 5.

The not so easy one:
Not sure if anyone else would even care about this one at all or not but It might be nice to have a users reputation power OR reputation points displayed by every post (yes that is possible but requires a small change to the postbit template).

For those of you who dont know, your reputation power is how many reputation points you give to someone when you click the thumbs up and leave a message to say you approve of a post.

That's a nice idea.

Why would one want to display how much power one has?

I could understand displaying points by a post to show that it may be more useful than others.

Yeah that was my main worry. However its not really power as such but more of how much you add to someone's reputation when you approve of their post.

The points however would be more apropriate but again you would still get some sort of competition in the end anyway.

So to be honest its not a big deal if the second option is scrapped anyway.
