While I believe rep is useless (our top 10 rep users are the worst users on Hive like SteemCleaners, KingsCrown, SteemSports), I am not convinced KE is the solution. It is probably a better metric than Reputation, but there are many reasons to sell, and once the tokens are in a users wallet they are free to use do what they want with them. I don't think it's a bad idea to use a users stake to decide if users are committed to Hive, it's not always a black and white thing. Many people have their reasons and I wouldn't look down on someone who is struggling in life, but is producing good content in the community.
That being said, reputation is absolutely useless and is only a measure of how many upvotes a user has received.
its the opposite, the lower the number, the more belief/commitment in the ecosystem.
Curious the line of acceptable. Like what #ke is not specifically good, but not bad or ‘fair enough’.
doubt there's a consensus there...
If someone's KE is 1000, then they are not respectable.
Sure thing I understand the tool should say so called "Respectful"

Rep can only do one thing...if it is above 70 you know that the user is around for a while, enough to know that some things aren't good ;)
I agree. KE is not a solution for rep.
