Actually truth be told, rep is meaningless indeed and I mean that. But that doesn't mean I'm going to give any one of you 1000000000000000000 rep. Why? Because it doesn't amuse me. I have zero reason to open the cp, log in, edit your profile, save it and then update the reputation counters.
Now if you can give me a reason for giving you x amount of rep that amuses me then I'll do it.
