very minor, possibly dumb suggestion (regarding reputation caption mouseover)
A lot of folks who have very high and very positive reputations, have the following appear when you mouse-over their reputation bar:
"[Username] has a reputation beyond repute"
Is it just me, or does that sound really dumb? How can you define a reputation by using the word repute (which is reputation's root word)? I think "repute" should be replaced with a better word like "reproach".

Ten times the action, total hardcore.

And for the not so well known:
"[username] is better then a sharp stick in the eye."
Just a suggestion.
