| Jun 3, 2011 at 21:01 | comment | added | Jon Ericson | If I remember correctly, my original intention with this question was to suggest removing the reputation system. But I became convinced that the option was neither possible nor desirable since SO depends on there being measurable consequences possible for every action. I don't know the exact order of events, but I answered my question before I heard about the podcast. It's possible my answer triggered Jeff's notice. And yes, the issue seems mostly to be personal, though I worry it will become more common as people become more expert in the topics they participate in. (But I'm likely wrong.) | |

Kidding aside, this was a very good discussion and I think Renesis summed it up nicely. | |
