But I do not think that this concern is purely hypothetical; we have already had quite valuable contributors express their frustration with the reputation game—as a result of which MO, unlike the rest of the network (right?), does not show reputation by default, and I think is the better for it. Hats are sillier than reputation, but whether that makes them more or less tolerable to the people frustrated by reputation I don't know. | |
