There is merit on the one hand to opening it up for recipients to know who left 'em rep. But those special supporters gotta have
something for their hundreds.
Personally I think even that should be removed - the protection of anonymity allows n00bs to tell uberEwangs that they are maybe not thought of so highly as they imagine without the threat of consequent flamage.
Given that there is some correlation between uberEwangs and platinum supporters, this veil of security is sadly missing where (in some cases) it would do an awful lot of good.
eBay style?
Dunno about rep being visible to all - has a plus side, in that I can see why Benjedo loves Cam so much, but it would radically impact the type of rep being left. Very different keeping it between you and me, and letting everyone know. Even more disincentive for n00bs to be negative repping the whores with their gaggle of gonads, even more incentive for the gonads to circle-rep.
Besides which, if I want to leave you rep that everyone can see, I have the whole forum in which to play that game. Except maybe in the MI section - coz I reckon that whiny little group might gang up on me big time...
