        Not really. Whether my posts generate interest or strike a chord with other members is not a random thing controlled by the laws of probability. I could write 1000 posts that are just dumb and useless, or I could only write works of pure genius that garner many reputation points. It has nothing to do with the law of averages. It has to do with the nature of what I share and how it is reacted to in th ecommunity.

        One really good posts only gains a handful of points, though. And would not show up in the charts because the charts are volume, not ratio.

          Yeah, but that's only one piece of the puzzle. It's a function of multiple variables, of which one is volume.

                          I wouldn't look at disabling reputation as disabling post up/down-voting as a bug submission but a feature request.

                            It's a bug. The interface says one thing but does another. That's a bug. The feature is listed as already being there but doesn't work.

                              You're supposed to be able to disable one but keep the other?

                                The option is to "disable reputation." Which it did not do, it kept that. What it did was disable the voting on which reputation is based (but the two are not the same thing.) Instead of disabling reputation, "disable reputation" disables voting. That's an interface bug. If the option was "make the color green", and it turned red, that would be the same kind of problem.

                                  It might be a definition problem. You might define reputation as one thing, but that's not how the developers interpret it.

                                    Well if you look in their code, they define it the way I do. So I doubt that that is true.
