Sort:  

Rep Up/Down is based on the Rep of the Voter vs the Rep of the Author and the SP behind the voter. A 70 Rep whale with 500K SP can do a ton of rep damage, compared to a 79 Rep minnow.

Yeah catch ya!
Say, a new comer and blogger finds steemit and blogs a quality and valuable content and buys upvotes to bots worth $1000. Can you make a guess what would be his/her reputation score or maybe you can make computation?

Less, but in the ballpark. My guess is 57-58. It's logarithmic, so each additional point is FAR FAR slower than the last one.
