I also fail to see the use in a user rating system here. Regulars know who they care to read posts from and new members don't care who makes the post as long as they get answers. The specific post is what matters, not the poster. And an indiviual post rating system pretty much unused, I mean how often do you even see posts get any star ratings as it is?

All I can see coming from it is more flamebait and drama.
