Wait, when you rep or neg someone how do you know how much they gain/lose anyway? Is it half of your rep points or what?
If you knock bars off or throw them into the red, you have major power. If they stay on full green you may still have rep power but you don't know because you can be full green at like 10-20k or something like that. You make knock off a full green poster for like 500,000 but you won't know. It could be as low as 500 or just gray.
