				 Re: have you people noticed the judgement 
 
			
			well, IMHO, it's pretty artificial. Friends who think someone has philosophical beliefs that agree with them will give a positive feedback.  And the converse is also possible.  Reps may be more beneficial on highly technical forums, where you have a specific, measurable in 3D outcome.  Here  it's more or a personality and a "who believes the same way I do" issue.
 Given that, the most important thing, IMHO, is to read the posts and make your own mind up as to whether the information is valid for you or not.
