You have access to all the information you need to *basically* calculate the formula (with a minor exception), and the staff are treated no differently than any other member.

See if you can figure it out (particularly without looking up the variables, or getting similar stats from other members).
My guess:

If it's something not too complicated, then perhaps 1 rep power for each year in the forum and 1 rep power for every hundred reputation points.

However, so that new people don't have to wait forever to get a rep point, it's something like 80 days after registering that a new user gets 1 rep power based on time. (and there's a similar lower starting point for rep power based on number of reputation points...)

But that's just a guess. If it's something more complicated, I really can't spend any more time thinking about it...
