Maybe I miss something, but why would I want to get reps? I mean what is the objective of it. Is it to incentivize people to help others? Or just an ego boost.

In my opinion this would be a feature of a larger product. It would be cool to implement it in Hacker News. Where you can get Karma for helping others here. But it would still be an add-on. The focus of karma in hacker news is to incentivize people on submitting better articles. What does it mean for me to have more reps ?
- pplrep 13y agoI recommend signing up and getting your friends to sign up and use it. It's indeed a very good feeling when one of your friends reps you for something you may have done. It does feel good. And I'm not drinking my own kool-aid. I've been repped a few times, and it does feel pretty good.
