Hey @themarkymark, what if we added a secondary metric to the reputation score? I toyed around with the idea of a color chart (below) which could be used to get a better assessment of what that user has contributed.
Ultimately, I think reputation scores should showcase flag history, just as they showcase upvote history -

I like the idea, but flags are a bad metric. I've had almost 1000 flags in the last week because I fight spam.
I see what you're saying. Well, this might be complicated - but - what if the age of the account was taken into consideration? Flags from older users (ideally ones with a healthier understanding of this community) carry greater weight when it comes to color.
This way it wouldn't be so 1-to-1 when it comes to flags or even steem stake, but more based on longevity within the community.
That would help, but many flags are malicious. You also have situations where accounts have been hacked and flagged a lot, yet recover and then go back to normal. Then you have the fact spammers are rarely flagged as no one wants to waste their stake cleaning the community.
cleaning that does nothing, it's really strange the rep is the only social thing here :D everything else is about money, humm so is rep :D
I remember haejin passing by my blog leaving a link ...
:D pretty much like me now(tell me if you want a link) :D although I'm not looking for rewards on a dead post, huuummm deadpost @whatamidoing I will see you there :D
Good luck with the marks, :( seems only the sky is the limit for haejin :| but he has been here(actively) at least 8-9 months to get that rep, albeit unfairly and unjustly ... my opinion, in comparison to others
good idea but it would never work, well I think it can't because for it to work it has to be a complex equation/ function and nothing complex works for most people, you could aggregate responces, rep of voters and general activity then do some magic(math) and get some wonder looking result, I remember a while back there was a person who was rating posts in the # based on the rep of the voters, that was a great way to show quality and engagement rather than just who's trendy andd who's whale riding ...
