| Sep 16, 2009 at 20:50 | comment | added | MarkJ | For instance this, where poor old Will Rickards has posted a nice answer explaining how to parameterise queries in VB6 and gained +2. Jon Skeet says you should parameterise the queries but he doesn't know how to in VB6 and gets +9. Is it hypnotism? stackoverflow.com/questions/561891/… | |
| Sep 16, 2009 at 20:49 | comment | added | MarkJ | Jon Skeet is a good example. I've seen questions where Jon Skeet's answer is accepted and heavily upvoted - but he actually isn't displaying great knowledge of the technology himself (which to be fair he has admitted in the answer). And all the time there's a great informative answer by someone else, languishing beneath. | |

| Sep 16, 2009 at 9:48 | comment | added | Eric | @John: That's all true, but it's the best tool available on SO right now for quickly gauging a particular user's credibility, competence and knowledge. If the only purpose of reputation was to gain access to site tools, then there's no reason for a user's reputation to be visible to anyone but him or herself. | |
| Sep 16, 2009 at 9:45 | comment | added | Eric | @random: It's a similar idea and actually an extension of that. If you can calculate reputation per tag, then this would be an interesting way to display it. I don't see it as an exact duplicate though. | |
| Sep 16, 2009 at 9:44 | comment | added | mmx | @John: I agree that things other than merely being knowledgeable can influence reputation. However, I don't believe rep has nothing to do with knowledge or competence. Jon Skeet is the top SO member primarily because he's a C# expert. | |
