We do have a reputation system, but it is being changed. Personally, I think a points system for posts will bring us right back to what Reddit was.

You should post for the sake of engaging with the community you are posting to, but many accounts were repost bots because of the karma system.

Do mods have the power to just nuke their subreddit? That'd be the biggest move. If a few big subreddits were to do this, that'd be an instant and significant loss.
