Reputation aka Post Appreciation Thingy - What It Is And How To Use It

Some of you may have noticed that in the profile sidebar we now have a thing called "reputation". This is a way of appreciating good posts and letting their writer know you like it (it shows up on their post and profile).

You'll see a + and - sign at the top of the post. Click on the + to up vote the post. While obviously you guys can do what you want, I'd appreciate it highly if you didn't use the down-vote button. We're all human and not all posts can be literary genius. It's kinda crushing on a writer's confidence though if they see their post is hated. Just sayin'.

The reputation doesn't have a use like the point system does, but I thought it'd be neat to have. I had it on a different site of mine and members liked it so I thought I'd give it a shot here.

Any questions or objections to this, just let me know.
