It would be nice if rep power had commas.

Sometimes members will give you + rep if they like your post or - rep if they don't. The rep power gives you an idea of how much + rep someone has gotten.

Or, how about using scientific notation? I'd like mine to read:

We're having another horrible bout of repflation. We need to have another repjustment.

Well, I think that to make it fair to those of us under the middle class line we should have a cutoff somewhere where it goes from a 1:1 trade off to a 100K:1 or something. Just for simplicity we should have the cutoff be somewhere 10-20K above mine.
It just wouldn't be fair to have a flat trade off like that when the little people are taken at the same rate as you top earners.
