Does rep mean more if it's actually for something other than merely existing???

Rep threads , in my opinion, are like stupidest things ever....the point of rep isn't just to watch a number increase (there's Sesame Street for that)...it's so people can let a person know intimately (but quickly) that a particular post resounded with them in some way.

One good thing about rep points, I suppose, is that if you have a lot of them you can give people with helpful posts a real "ratings boost."

I know that if I see my rep points jump by a few hundred or so, it's very affirming.

And if I can affirm someone else by giving them rep points (I think I give about 107 rep points now, a 'fair to middling' amount) it makes me happy.

It also lets them know that someone has read their posts, and perhaps been helped or touched in some way by them. (It's frustrating to ponder something deeply and put some effort into a response and never know if it's reached anyone.)

Exactly. It's one way of having fun in one forum and sharing the fun in another forum and also it adds to my happiness to give reps. I may rep a post that I don't necessarily 100% agree with, but I appreciate the passion and care and love and effort that one puts into their posts. I learn a lot from all of those posts. I appreciate it and I don't have a lot of blessings to say "thank you" with, but repping is something that helps me feel as if I'm showing my appreciation.

Anyway, Thanks Sam for starting this thread. Your heart is in the right place.

God Bless

oh no...oh no...:)

I'm one of those posters who loves going to Rep Power threads. I'm a sucker for them. Mea culpa (I don't think I'm using the right phrase)

I like the thought of giving someone reps and boosting their total rep points like a rocket:) I'm a little kid, I gotta have my star, wahhh:)
