many private boards even turn off reputation and also post count because what you say is more important than how often you said it or who may or may not have liked it. Just because someone has been around forever, has a huge reputation gauge, and thousands of posts doesn't mean that he/she has a more valuable opinion or better input than the next person (or even you).
