Right, that's what I meant.

I am guessing the programmers thought that this was a trade-off to encourage people to not hide their rep. Whether that's what we really want or not...
Probably, although I think a better trade off would be not being able to add/remove someone else's reputation if you hide yours.

Or, even better, if you could actually remove yourself from the rep game. As it stands, you can only choose to be a hidden player.

suppose one option for now, though, is just to briefly turn the "show your rep level" setting on, look at the comments, then turn it back off.
Yeah, I think I tried that a few times in the past, but it's kind of pointless to actually do more work when you're not even participating fully in the system.

Anyway, thanks for the response. I knew it had a slim chance of happening, but I just thought I'd brought it up.
