there's a little icon in the bottom left that looks like a pair of scales.....click on it, and you can add or subract rep for other posters. Some blokes on bb.com have over 2000 rep points.
The thing is, the more posts your make, and the more positive rep you have...the more rep you can give other people. So one person might be only able to give 1 point, another can give 12 or 20 or 30...

Yes it will. As you get more rep, more of those little green dots will light up with a diffrerent tag line.

*cough* 'Rep Points'? That is the dumbest thing I've heard today. And believe me, I hear some pretty dumb things during the day. 
Imagine it - you'd get all the idiots who think it's cool to collect points, and they'd be the people you wish would STFU...you know the ones.....the really saccarine, condescending, self important, middel-of the road, politically correct ******s. What a circle jerk of an idea.
I think I'd have to create my own 'Anti-rep' system, where all the shît-stirrers and sarcastic/funny buggers get bonus points. 53-11 would be up there, wouldn't ya mate!

No need to create an anti-rep system mate...you can give negative rep to posts.
