The rep-cap has happened before on here. It went on for a while, and then everyone's was just reset to zero. Do it again. :thumbsup:
One question though - if we all have zero, how does anyone get any rep, as the rep you give is a percentage of your own rep (10% of zero is still zero)...?

Actually, it's 1% on a rep and a neg rep is ½%.
As for the other part, if someone is at zero or less, I think you get at least 1 point on a rep, but I'm not sure.
In case anyone is interested:
When I give a rep, based on my points, the receiving user would get just over 210,000 points, but lately, I've noticed that the actual points given is a lot more, almost 250,000 on the last one I gave. This means that somewhere, hidden in the software, the board knows exactly how many points each user has, it just doesn't have the ability to display it properly.

Your rep power will keep going up. I can't remember what the number is off the top of my head, but every X reputation you receive gives you 1 point of rep power.
So if X = 5, every time you get 5 points of rep from someone else, the number you see on your posts will go up 1 time. If someone gives you 50 points, then that influencing power goes up by 10.
Make sense?
None at all...

Well, I had hit my cap a while ago...I am not sure if I can go on. Not just with the board, but life itself.
First, I tried getting run over by an airplane. But, they kept flying over my head.
Then I jumped off a bridge. But, it was just a pedestrian bridge.
I tried to OD on pills. Turns out, they were Pez...which are impossible to OD on.
I tried shooting myself in the head. It was a water gun. Got the side of my head wet.
Self strangulation simply does not work.
I tried to sit in the garage with the car running, but since I don't have a garage, it was actually in a parking space outside the apartment.
I could not figure out how to get through my wrists with the electric razor.
I read about some people who would shove a shovel up their ass, then jump off a chair to kill themselves. I never got past that first step.
I tried the "black pill", like they gave Painless in M*A*S*H*. It was just a giant jelly bean. Tasted good, though!
So, I guess I will just keep making meaningless posts, continuing my meaningless life with no hope of reward. I hope you are happy!
And stop taking my yogurt.

^I once heard about a guy who lost about 42K of rep. He was pretty pissed. We all learned later that it was his tiny penis that was making him angry, though.
Also, someone find the place where members are listed by rep. The sheer number of those maxing it out has to be the best argument for killing the system.

Why just not resetting to zero. And instead of giving rep that is a percentage of your own rep, just make it a +1 or -1 no matter if you're a newbie or long on the board. You never have problems reaching the limit. People can still react to a post and show appreciation or disaprove.
Or create something that is more or less like on youtube where you can give a post a 'thumbs up' of 'thumbs down'. In that case it REALLY IS an appreciation or disapproval of a POST instead of a member.
