The Rhinoceros is back!
He been gone but he is back!
[rhinoceros]
Heh, not exactly gone. Always around and watching closely, more or less. :)
[Kid-A]
So how does it feel rhino?
Just think the fame, the glory.
You are the second most respected.....is that the right word? popular? powerful?
[rhinoceros]
That was not the point of my post, but here is a story for you.
We have a statue of Truman somewhere in Athens, Greece. The tale says that Truman visited Greece once, and when they told him about the statue he looked confused and said "A statue? What for?"
Well, most of the time it feels awkward, as if you have to do something or as if you owe money. But if it happens a vote to come up and you have a strong opinion about the issue, you can be sucked in by the power game with your huge vote. :P

Concerning noobies, I am not sure what can be done about that. Perhaps there should be a karma reputation bot which automatically gives somebody more reputation when their karma increases/decreases. With maybe a high amount of equity.

The new additions to the rep system are not always noobies. If it were for noobies, it is reasonable that many people won't rate them because they don't know them yet. But when old dogs who join the system don't get rated at all, then the rep/vote system seems to be wearing off. Maybe the simplest solution is just going there and voting every week.
[Kid-A]
So what are you going to do with your new found wealth?
[rhinoceros]
Heh, not so new. In fact it is getting old already. But it is still there, so, do you have any suggestions/offers on what I should buy? :P
