It will be a welcoming situation that will end the confusion created by current reputation systems employed by different UIs where one user will have diverse scores on those UIs.
Reputation based on engagement and activities than reward received will be better. It will encourage more activities and show that being active is better having more rewards as social media platforms should be. It will become more yardstick to give rewards to people will more reputations based on engagement but have been limited by the current system.
Reputation should be earned and sustained by actions like engagement with others, not being static or increase as the user continue to receive rewards.
Happy to have that what was discussed in the Last AMA will become reality. It shows how good the show is and more reasons to joined and engaged favorably during the show.
