What is rep good for?

It's before my time, too, but I think people paid each other to give rep.

what are rep clubs (before my time probably)...like clubs that give each other rep? lol

It was just a thread. Everyone who posted was repped. I tried to find the original "Rep Club" thread, but it seems to be gone. There were several members, including some staffers.

Nope. You just posted in the thread and repped everyone else who posted. I didn't pay anyone, and nobody paid me. It was basically a rep exchange.

That was a fun/stupid club.

Anyways does anyone know the exact values of the x10 rep system?

The exact values for what?

You get 25 credits per rep.
You get one rep point if the rep is green.
The rep levels are at this post.

You get 25 credits per rep.

Apparently that's no longer true:

So yeah, there really isn't anything to reps anymore, nothing like discounts that I can find... and no credits anymore. Apparently it was abused, which I can see easily lol.
