The reputation algorithm definitely needs an overhaul to include a time element and must require consensus among many users and not just one pissed off whale bullying someone who rubbed them the wrong way. The way that this platform is designed brings out both the best and the worst in people, and the reputation algorithm is one aspect of it that can definitely be abused by bullies.

I agree. The time element, and then the diminishing/limited individual account effect in regard to influence on REP, are some considerations worth refining and implementing to improve the REP and make it worth of its true meaning.
We must find ways to limit the extent by which a single account can raise a reputation score, and make it in such a manner as requires several acounts...that way, you are forced to engage with the community and solicit for their support, rather than relying on your alt account to do the same.
Thanks for your thoughts.
